how would yall feel if we drafted him in the first round? hes the boobie miles of modern day football. he can run , he can catch like a w.r , he can return and he can pass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  

i think he would make our offense dominate , of course we would have to atleast draft 1 tackle later on but its all about bpa and no rush to get a oline  we are about 5 years removed to becoming an elite team like we were during the cardiac cats.

Doing a little research comparing teams , we are lacking in a whole oline besides center, a 2,3rd wr, safetys ,corners and a rb

I would prefer a stud tackle but I would be ok with it if we found a solid offensive tackle via free agency this off season. Take a stud tackle and put him on Cams blindside. Due to our cap situation and upcoming Cam contract we should let the remaining tackles fight it out to handle the right side. I think our guards and center combination will continue to improve as the season continues. We could also find a potential contributing guard in the 4th.

As much as I love D Will he is going to be a cap casualty this offseason. Gurley could be a good addition if he is BPA but I prefer these picks early.

1) Offensive Line

2) Safety

Not necessarily in that order but I would hope they would get addressed in the first three rounds.

I would be fine with it if there isnt an OL or DB worthy of a first round pick AND there was no one willing to trade up for a good price.

Gettleman, as he should, drafts for value. (within reason) I would love to have him, but only if he is the best option. No way to tell that, even on draft day. We dont know what offers Gettleman gets. So, whoever we draft, Im good. Because truthfully, there is probably something I dont know.

He is a great talent and would love to have him, may not be best pick tho.

    • That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.
    • The Saints being that high is the one that killed me. Chris Olave might not know his name at this point, Shaheed is coming off injury as well, so 31 year old Brandin Cooks might be your best WR...coming off a 260 yard season over 10 games. Kamara is Kamara, but didn't have 1,000 yards last year and is about to turn 30.  Toss in the fact that Taysom Hill may be the best QB on the team and I truly don't understand Barnwell's thoughts beside seeing the names "Olave" and "Kamara" and going yep, that sounds better than "Chuba" and "Thielen". 
    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.
