If they drafted grant, Schwesinger, and Kennard in rounds 2-3, IDGAF about the rest of the draft. Those 3 should make this draft a clear winner and infuse talent on this soft-ass defense. Now to poop on the dream, 99.99999% each of them will be drafted before they were in this draft. Nice dream tho..

Personally I feel you need to be fluid each draft year in regards to that years main tiers and overall pool. Find the best scouts and Trust your big board. This will guide you to being a yearly winner. Many say it, but no one truly does BPA. Example if I was running the Panthers this year, starting with that 3rd, if there was a OG I feel was HOFer and he's still there in 3rd....I would draft him. There's injuries and sooo much turn over, lewis or hunt could be on a different team in 26. Just take the clear best player, if you need a DT and he's 80 and the OG is 83...its ok to "break" the golden rule and fill a big hole. Laugh if you want, but I was a FF king when I followed the league. One of the methods I learnt was as each round passes, add/focus/target more up-side. Again most drafts have different talent levels, but after the early 4th(115th) take more risk and go for broke. It's something like 5-7% success rate after that 115, take a risk on trouble or injuried player.... you just gave your odds of having a successful season a boost....thus you keep winning and keep making $$$.... If that player doesn't work out, well so did 94% of the other teams players.

I feel the plan should be to have christ take over for moton after this season. He's 2 years younger and plenty fresh. Nothing wrong with discussing what to do with motion this year or after. Who knows, get them Wharton's jelly cells in him and resign him for 3 more years. There's loads of options on this and we are on a football discussion forum...

dan seemed more nervous than normal and gave away more than normal tired GM quotes. He knows the main goal, add talent. That's all I care about.

He was a 3 star guy recuit In 2022 he was 3rd string. 2023 he had a 15% drop rate 2024 he was the whole offense and super stud Both of youz guyz have made up minds, his whole resume is one peak at the end. He wasn't talked about in drafts until this year, even then during January on many mocks he was listed among 3rd rounds. Then the rocket happens... This is one weird flawed draft, Im just pointing out warrens history and facts. along with piss poor TE draft history and his 5th year leap after being a forgotten member. Sorry he's your fav...

"type" of haul. I think there's a 1st, 2-3rd this year and future 1st 2-3rd. That's the BY package minus DJ Moore. If Steelers believe in either dart or Sanders, it would be worth it for them. They always draft in the 20s and sorta stuck in 10 win playoff 1st round playoff exit zone... No QB and they just might as well go all-in after the DK trade. FYI George Pickens is heavily rumored to be traded.... it worked out Soo well for the Panthers the last WR trade...

My main think about the saints is no matter who trades up= Panthers win saints lose Saints use a few of their 3s and 4s and future picks to trade up to #4. They just trade assets for either Dart or sanders LOLOLOLOLOLOLz = Panthers win(same for nfc south) Panthers get a BY haul for trading 8. Panthers hopefully pick form the vast pool of DE, DT, TE, edge and add talent. Panthers wins and saints have to start old age Hill at QB.

https://www.si.com/nfl/nfl-takeaways-unlikely-shedeur-sanders-goes-to-browns-giants#_6a42oiyov Update- more insight..... its fugly. It seems carr mainly came for Dennis Allen, then he was fired and the saints wanted to try to avoid paying the past can kicking one more year. They didn't ask Carr about if he wanted to stay, just did a new deal. Carr's shoulder flared up right after. Seems they should have cut him, just a move that will haunt them for years.....just LOL

Im surprised Gettlegut took Joe persons call for this piece.

I believe there's two plans for the panthers. Plan A- land a BY type of haul for a trade back. OR Plan B- Draft a georgia dog at 8. Disaster Plan no trade back and no georgia dog. Draft either Tmac or Tyler Warren

This is just one of those deals where I don't feel college success will transform into NFL success. I think it will be struggle city for him just getting a QB to throw to him. Have you seen his 5th year XL-like success= That's scary when you are talking top ten. This draft is the weirdest one that I can recall. I honestly don't believe he was even ranked (draft-wise) in 2023.

They are similar to the Panthers, they need everything too! Well the final laps are happening, maybe a favorite of each will be known soon.

I listen to Jake delhomie on radio and he basically said "They need some "guys" ". I've been saying the #1 goal for the draft is just add talent. That's #1-5 goals= add talent. Figure how to get them on field later.... Outside of dbrown, hunt, and maybe horn. No one is respected or feared by other teams. Even during the 7-9 years, Panthers were a tough game and had Thomas Davis, Smitty, peppers, gross, stew, Luke, kalil, norwell, Olsen, minter, Norman. Those are "guys" and even if a lost happened, the other team had sit in ice baths longer....

I swear two teams Ive heard at least 10 players linked to are the jags and jets. They have the highest associated number. I think they are impossible right now to pick for, thus makes picking for the Panthers the same.

Ive heard this is a trade up deal for the teams picking early 2nd round. 5th year option. jets, giants, browns it would not cost much(3rd or 4th or even 5th) for 32. The reason being milroe is not going it makes to the 3rd round. So if you want him, trading into the late first is the best method. What a weird draft this is.

IMO that only works if your team is winning or perennial play playoff contenders. They have been a 7 win team the last four years.

Nearly as dumb as giving a playoff choking 35 year old QB coming off a achilles injury 100 million in guaranteed. NFC south is ready to be taken....

Wait until they find out rams, colts, Steelers and others can trade for #8....

check out his "dead cap" If they cut him now its 80 million in dead cap this season....... once they cut him next season its 60 million. Sure they can kick the can and re-up with him for 2026. They choose poorly, very. They could have cut him this year and SAVED 11 million, but nahhhhhh sign 88 year old cam Jordan and MLB davis. While using this carr saving to spend future money on kamara and young. It was time for the reset and pay up. Huge mistake even if Carr can play. They have a 100 million bill incoming no matter what, unless they what to pay it in 2027 by resigning 35 year old Carr, 37 year Cam Jordan, 35 year old Davis and others. Ryan Ramcyk is retired too. Good news panther fans!!

I've heard two different opinions of this, one was AI is nothing more than old librarian repeating stuff from books. I heard from one of my contractor friends, he told me about 5 years ago its too late. Back then, He said government with the backing of investors used a quantum computer that made a AI and told it to make a better AI. After the 9th time of this, that AI became self aware. He was also the first person to tell me not to believe any audio or video form now on. "You could take any world leader and make blackmail or start wars". Of course my dumbass asked "So you could make a video of Chinas military leaders at a donkey show??" " ...... uhh yes Bas". I thought at this time, I better get started on a doomsday bunker.... But here we are, just a few wars happening across Africa, middle east, and Ukraine. I also learnt that it would take millions of dollars to survive and you are better off dying. Godspeed right people!

Im is such a good panther mood, Ill share them with my panther friends! Plus I can always make more, help yourself!!

Draft winds just changed with the saints having QB carr problems.... fyi they pick 9 That must be the reason for Dan/Brandt looking into mid-late first rounders. Be nice to land a near BY package to prevent the sinats form adding a QB this draft!!! Add in cousins already getting 10 million and due 27.5 guaranteed, LOLOLOLOLOLOLs. Better pray penix is a god.....

Me hearing this-

Unless penix is legit, failcons have 37.5 million tied to cousins....they could be in a 2 year fall too. The main issue is TB has drafted well the last 8 years, I feel their team is still older talent and they will age out soon. Maybe by 2026 the Panthers will be ready to own the NFC south. The failcons and iants will be in QB hell while yucs Evans&defense finally slows down. Honestly Panthers have been in the race late into the season, that's sad for everyone. I swear if diontae Johnson just bust his arse for big free agent pay day and they didn't lose dbrown week one, Panthers could have nearly won this division. They were 2 games out with like 5 weeks to go, God that's bad... I swear it would have came down to a tie breaker.

They missed out on all the wilson, Winston, fields, etc bridge types. The only name left is arod and ridder if you think he's a QB. I mean this is G-R-E-A-T news for the Panthers. If any team wants dart or sanders, you better call Dan/Brandt and figure out what they need. Guess what, if a team trades ahead for Sanders or Dart, that just makes a player like Walker fall to the Panthers. I guess the iants could not hide it any longer. The other thing, LOLOLLOLOLOL @ saints for pushing his 40 million into next season. It's nearly as bad as failcons giving cousins 100 million 2 years to cover up drafting 27 year penix. That's who need to trade for cousins!!! The saints, LOLs!!
