This is a forum where you talk about the Panthers.  If you're not into his post dont comment.  I never understand comments like this...

 

 

Camon man, you couldn't just post this on the panthers Facebook page?

I'm no NFL history buff nor do I closely follow other teams drafts but man, I couldn't be happier with these draft picks.  It seems like we've hit homeruns in the first round the past 10 years+ with the exception of Otah.

 

 

Given star contines and kev lives up to the hype, has there been a better four year haul for first rounders?
Like in the history of NFL?....??...

True, but in those 10 years since the Super Bowl loss, we've only been in the post season 3 times. Take it for what you will.

I mistakenly forgot dallas blowboys haul of ivrin, akiman, emmit and maryland....... I even looked at some others. steelers had terry, green, harris and WR named lewis(had 6,000 yards in running system).... hmmm it will be a hard list to top, but I think the current talent could pass them! Getting at least three superbowl would go a long way..........

As far as paying all the studs, I believe even before dave was hired there's a plan in place(daves adding to it as well example-cutting smitty now saves 10 mill after next year)Plus 1st rounders have the fifth year option and the tag for two years, so that's six or seven years. That also helps when it comes time for next (and most likely the last big) contract for a players career. Its on the players, dave could ask if "Do you want to big a part of something special?"

    • If he has another good season, we're probably not going to get out of it, as that's just the nature of the beast. The salary cap goes up and salaries go up.    Maybe we won't have to pay him that high, but it will most certainly be in the neighborhood. As his season goes, so will his salary (provided that the two sides won't come together now (if there's anything even going on). https://catcrave.com/panthers-insider-sets-steep-ikem-ekwonu-extension-price-despite-rocky-nfl-ride
    • I mean, I think you will really struggle to find many prognosticators that don't have us in the bottom 5. Part of it is that we do have a bottom 5 overall roster(still true) and part of it is that we have more question marks than most rosters. Finally, we have consistently been a bottom 10 team for close to a decade now. Nothing is really a safer offseason projection that putting us there.
    • Dean Jones, the resident writer for Cat Crave, thinks that we should consider signing Noah Fant. Jones titles his article:  Panthers quietly handed perfect fix for overlooked flaw at just the right time He calls the TE position an "overlooked flaw," and even though I wouldn't necessarily go as far as that, I do believe that the Panthers would instantly buttress the position with a Fant signing. The Panthers just may throw out feelers, and there are connections.   "Fant played for Panthers' tight ends coach Pat McPherson for two seasons. He was also in Seattle with head coach Dave Canales and offensive coordinator Brad Idzik in 2022. This also happens to be a position group that is dangerously short of dependable options."   I guess it comes down to whether or not the Panthers believe that our guys can be the real deal, or at least fill the need that Canales and company have for this offense. I have been skeptical of the lack of TE involvement in the regular flow of the offense since Canales has taken over, but it may be because of the lack of legit and/or experienced personnel. Fant hasn't been spectacular. He is an apt move-TE though. He is a so-so middle of the pack-ish pass blocker. His run blocking grades leave a lot to be desired (save for one year).  I guess that I could see it, but I just don't know if Fant moves the needle enough to spend the extra money on him. For a first rounder, he's been kind of a bust in my opinion. He's still NFL-worthy, and he's still in the prime of his career. But, I think I'm more in disagreement with Jones about thinking Fant is the "perfect fix." He just may be a more expensive, albeit more experienced, option than we already have.   https://catcrave.com/panthers-quietly-handed-perfect-fix-for-overlooked-flaw-just-right-time
