It was a great game. The team fought all day and we had chances to put them away but mistakes hurts us especially the last kick we had to win the game. Silly mistakes young teams make, but we could have won the game. It is life but I enjoyed the grit and termination this team left on the field.

whoops

You can always get a good pass rusher with those picks, or even two of them with one of those picks and one outside the first round.

Cam was a decent size QB and how many times did his passes get blocked at the line of scrimmage?

At least it can't get any worse. Reminds me of the time Green went after an Assistant during Capers time. Sad to see a franchise fall as far as this one has. Reminds me of how bad the Pittsburg Steelers were in the 60's and 70's.

more than likely you are correct. At least we are in the running for the Number 1 pick in the next draft.

Looks like Rhule is losing the players. The college coach just doesn't have the ability to run an NFL organization.

At least we are only paying 5 million.

Wondering if he will be back up material.

I think you are right. We could have had Howell, but I think having two hometown rookies on the roster would have been too much for the fan base to handle.

Would you been disappointed if we had chosen Neal instead of Ekwonu?

I think Cross and Ekwonu were the two best LT's in this years draft, but we could've had anyone of them and not disappointed in our pick,

Sam just looked better and seemed to know what to do. I will give him the benefit that it was nerves, but I think we should have taken Sam in the 3rd, but I think Grier left a bad taste in Rhule mouth and picking a hometown fave wasn't in the cards again.

The only reason Tepper would want him he would keep the Panthers in the playoff hunt while he is here.

if we have to give up that for him. NO!

I think it would be great to have him here. He can work wonders with a QB. Just look at what he did with Brees,

I see him lining up the suitors and the one with the best players and money will win.

I have heard that Jerry wants him for America's Team next year and willing to fork out the cash for him.

A new season is here with high hopes and expectations. et's hope our new Offensive line will be better and can protect the QB. We can't get any lower than the past two years. LLets have an exciting QB battle or at least who ever we want wins and can stay healthy. let's hope the Defense can stay as healthy as it needs top and we get a full year to see what our young DB's can do. It will be an exciting year and hope we can get a winning record out of this year. GO PANTHERS!

I Brady is playing it will be LG and if Icky gets hurt sliding to tackle to take his pace. Brady is the LG of the future.

I see the team keeping three QB's this year. Even if Corral doesn't even dress out.

Sam is the backup. To tell you the truth I don't think Sam is a NFL caliber QB to any team in the league. Maybe a team who has a proven and quality OLine who could protect him and give him to time to make his reads. Corral needs a full year or 2 years of studying before he is thrown to the wild animals of the NFL. We can hope for an injury to a 2nd string QB on another team and they would take Sam to be the backup

so Baker does decent with a 500 record +/-1 either way they give him 22 to 25 million for 2024 to play. If he does bad, we have Corral in the wings waiting. He has at least a year to be ready to show if he is NFL caliber QB.

NY could have taken Ekwonu. I saw a few mocks that had NY taking Ekwonu at 5. Would Carolina taken Neal. It wouldn't have been a loss if they had. If Carolina had taken Neal they still could have gotten Thibodeaux. Just think all 3 of the leading Tackles were still on the board.

Maybe allow Donald to start, and after a few weeks if is still the same old Sam with this line. Then put Corral in and see what happens. No reason to throw Corral to the wolves right away. They didn't start Kerry right away. You are correct this is the last year of Sam in Carolina.
