And we went 5-12 last year while being nowhere near the playoffs 

You think going 8-9 while being in the playoff hunt until Week 17 or 18 and ending up just missing out wouldn't be considered growth this year?

You're acting like I'm saying we should be playing for the #1 pick and try to lose every game for it.  It's not even like I'm saying I want us going into Week 18 needing a win to make the playoffs and a loss keeps us out and thus I'm rooting against us that game.

I'm solely saying that I think making the playoffs only to lose in the first round would in the end, be less beneficial for us than if we were to just miss the playoffs, pick 5-7 spots earlier in the draft, and get the easier schedule that goes along with it.

A Panthers team that makes the playoffs but still loses round 1 probably has a better version of Bryce Young than a Panthers team that barely misses the playoffs. If we’re doing hypothetical, give me a higher %chance of Bryce being the real than better draft picks. 

I hope so. Morgan definitely showed unspoken faith in Wallace by not drafting a LB. 

Glad he didn’t fall to us with the chance of us drafting him. Funny how so many people thought drafting an undersized DT at #8 with poor athletic traits and short arms was going to move the needle for us.. Especially considering we signed Wharton and Brown over the offseason..Robinson and Brown still on the roster as well. 

Cool seeing Dan Morgan on a mainstream show like Pat Mcafee. Good publicity for the Panthers. 

So glad we stayed put and took TMac. Kid is going to be a game changer for us

Hunter is so underrated.  He is an elite route runner and has been a 3rd down conversion machine since his Clemson days 

Dude just knows how to get open.  Knows exactly where he is supposed to be and how to find the soft spot in zone.

Welcome home, 3rd and Renfrow.

He’s going to beat our David Moore imo

I’d rather just keep the good vibes rolling and not think about Bryce not working out. 

I remember the days when our draft pick sticky threads would go 100+ pages. It’s kind of sad to see how much this website has decreased in popularity.
 

For starters, the “Carolina Huddle” would be a lot more popular if there was an app created for it just like any other social media platform. It’s a hassle having to go to the Internet browser every single time I want to browse the website since I’m a phone user. 

Damn it. Paul was right there. We need a MLB

They mainly talked about his run defense. I hope he can hold up in coverage..

Really sucks that Kizer or Stutzman didn’t fall to us. UGA was a different team when Etienne was on the field though. Good wiggle, vision, break tackle ability, catching ability. Let’s see what happens. 

Sucks that we were the one pick that got skipped over with no analysis.

Let's riot over a 4th round RB pick.  As is tradition.

Lol exactly. Trevor Itienne was the best RB left imo. If Chuba or Dowdle go down, we’d need another capable RB on the roster. Blackshire is trash. I watched ETN quite a bit for UGA and he’s a really good running back. Once Kizer and Stutsman got picked I had more of an open mind.  I’m fine with it. 

Damn. There goes Stutsman. 

Give me a MLB. Was really wanting Kizer. Damn it. Stutz still there. 

Ty Robinson would be a nice pick 

Incoming run on RB’s

Smart and charismatic kid. One of the best interviews I’ve listened to. Loved him explaining his pass rush strategy in detail.

Great draft so far! I still want an ILB. Would be nice to see Dan Morgan get Danny Stutzman or Jack Kiser

Now he’s on a defense that’ll make him shine if he’s any good 

He lost a lot of money though. 

Pretty funny that Mike Green thought leaving the combine early because of one highlight play was going to seel him being a 1st rounder. Lmao.

20 years old, bulked up to play the "containment" role at A&M, still had 5 sacks, trimmed 20 lbs off for the combine, and his comps have been Trey Hendrickson and George Karlaftis. Not to mention the guy's character is top notch. Love it.

When I was watching Shemar Stewart’s combine interview during combine week. When the interviewer asked him about Nic Scourton he  had glowing things to say about him. Here’s the video. It starts at 4:20

carolina literally traded  a bag of doritos to pick him

I wouldn’t say that. We moved back in almost every single round 10+ picks. I do like Nic Scourton though for where we drafted him at. He has an array of pass rush moves. Great motor and great vs the run. Early on in the draft process he was mocked in the first round in every mock I looked at. Facts are at 51, any prospect that you draft is going to have a few concerns.

Give me Nic Scourton at this point 

Damn it. I liked JT Tuimoloau
