You wait so long for the Panthers to pick their final guy, and they go and pull this crud.  Not only did they waste the pick, but they did so on a guy that doesn't have starter potential.  Gaffney is a guy who was a role player at Stanford, a system guy.  As far as I'm concern, he's different version of Kenjon Barner, who by the way was a wasted pick last year.  If we were going to go running back, why not go after a guy like Storm Johnson?  Someone who has starting potential?  Fortunately, it looks like James Hurst will go undrafted, and perhaps even Antonio Richardson.  I'm confident James Hurst will want to play for the Panthers, but it would be awesome to get both guys.

Im really starting to think Gettleman just needs to trade picks 4th-7 for a extra 2nd round pick every year. Damn we cant draft worth a crap after the first three rounds.

Seriously guys. With the crap we drafted rounds 4-7, can you honestly tell me what we got is better than reaching for need and drafting nothing but Oline? Why is it so hard for Gettleman to be balanced? Why not draft BPA first three rounds then draft solely on need rounds 4-7, why would that be so wrong?

All 99% of you know about picks, especially this late, is what position they play.  You don't draft based off filling out a checklist. 

 

Great pick.  I told a friend today we should do this.  You can get good value on RB's this late.

None of these guys have played a down yet.

      Adam Schefter: Panthers getting trade calls for Andy Dalton

      By strato · Posted

      To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. .

      I’VE FOUND OUR WR3 (Rashid Shaheed)

      By Car123 · Posted

      The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
