You sir are crazy.

Every 1-3 round pick will not not should not be an immediate impact.

It just does not work that way.

Damn...Madden has ruined football fans all across the usa

 

 

Psssh.....my third rounders are rarely impact players in year one. Don't bring Madden into this....

Although not nearly as cool as playing Cam in Madden, I did play craps at the same table as Nelly in the Bellagio in Vegas several years ago. He had a LV man purse that his friend was holding for him and he never placed odds behind his pass line bet which struck me as particularly weird for a craps player.

64% (113 of 176) of the DEs drafted in rounds 1 through 3 since the 7 round draft format in 1994 have had a fair to significant contribution to their team in their first season.

 

Regardless of position 63.3% of players drafted in the first 3 rounds have a fair to significant contribution to their teams in their rookie season.

 

So, the good GMs convert 7 or more of every 10 picks made in the first 3 rounds while the mediocre GMs convert on about 50% of their picks in the first 3 rounds.

 

Research before making a comment.

 

Ealy at the moment is in the 13th percentile of all DEs since 1994 in their rookie season. Hopefully, he can get that up in the next 8 weeks.

 

If a GM hits on all 3 they are excellent. They should at least hit on 2 of 3 being impact or role players in their rookie season. Anything less is a failure. This goes back to my point that you do not use a pick in the first 3 rounds on developmental players. Those players need to be chosen to make an impact in year one or it is a waste of a pick.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
