Remember when in the second round, there was NO talent as good as what is on our team?

When apparently Nate Chandler, Byron Bell were every bit as good if not better than somebody like a Morgan Moses.

 

 

What in the world did they see that made them think Byron could help this team win a few games, let alone a super bowl? My gosh the incompetence by David and Ron.

He's backing up a right tackle in Washington who has given up more sacks than bell and chandler coming into tonight, so yeah I would say he could. I guess if you just remember a guys name from a mock draft 7 months ago that automatically makes him a better option.

lol, I must be taking crazy pills, did anybody else see tonights game? Do you even understand the point of the post. It doesn't have to be freaking Morgan moses, it could be anybody who isn't our defensive tackle I mean right tackle.

im sorry about your thread and the fact that people want to throw silly things like logic and facts that are interrupting your temper tantrum/epiphany

Prime example: Justin Britt was taken 4 picks after Ealy and is starting at RT for the seahawks. Ask yourself if Nate Chandler would even be on the seahawks practice squad. Gettleman was an idiot for trusting these tackles. He had two seasons worth of film on Bell sucking over on the right side and he knew Chandler wasn't very good last season and only played because literally everyone else got injured and yet he still elevated them to starting tackles. But I guess this is one of the reasons the seahawks won the super bowl and we look like the worst team in the league right now.

Ealy will be moved to offensive tackle soon enough since he is a waste on the DL.

 

Screw best available player in the draft when you are horrible at finding talent to begin with.

 

Should have just loaded up on the deepest talent positions in the draft that fit the Panthers needs like many fans wanted.

 

Kelvin Benjamin WR, Allen Robinson WR, Martavis Bryant WR, Corey Linsley OG, Zach Fulton OG, Seantrel Henderson OT, and James Hurst OT.

 

Ealy and Turner were not top 3 round talent. Bene, Boston, and Gaffney were not more important than OL depth and potential starters. This entire draft needed to be dedicated to loading up around Cam, Olsen, Stewart, Williams, and Tolbert. And move Chandler back to OG. That is where he will succeed. Gettleman set this team up for failure. And Rivera has given this team his personality. The head coach was sulking on the sidelines almost all game.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
