Seems to be alot of similarities between the pro-Hardy and anti-Martin crowd and vice versa.

But me down for anti both.

Martin IMO had more to do with the Miami drama than Incognito. " Bullying" however is a fun thing for the media. Read all Martin's text and he just seems mentally unstable.....not a victim

This was a good move by Gettleman. I liked Jonathan Martin when he was coming out of Stanford. He hasn't really found a place to stick yet and the Panthers can potentially be the right fit for him. What he does well is he is a absolute mauler in the run game. 

 

 

WTF??!?!?!

 

All of the Internet Heroes in this thread have assured me that young Mr. Martin is soft as a marshmallow.  That all those years he played and dominated in one of the best college football conferences in the country, he was allowed to play using powder-puff football rules.

 

Surely you must be mistaken?

Yet, his former college coach who presumably knew him very well snatched him up very quickly when he became available.  That's about as strong of an endorsement of Martin as I can imagine.

I would've rather had bell as a backup, as well. He was a known quantity to us. not starter material but more than capable to spell someone

 

 

A guy who graded consistently lower than Martin...

 

Made twice what Martin makes...

 

You would rather have that guy over Martin.

 

Well, I guess we can count out logic and reason as one of your strong suits.

This is a great pick up only if you have never seen Martin play. All bullying jokes aside-- he gets manhandled and pushed around. It's a fact. I watched him play for the Dolphins and he was terrible. He was a 2nd round pick and eventually lost his job on a line that gave up 58 sacks in one season. I saw several 49er games with Martin getting used. I'm reading some of these comments referring to Martin as being solid depth. Martin is anything but solid and will not make your team.

 

 

Not very reassuring. I don't think I have seen him play so I cannot say but it's also a strange coincidence that his issues about bullying came out at a time when he was not playing well.

Out of 80 NFL OT's, PFF has him rated 70th in run blocking, 75th in pass protection, and 76th overall. he has given up the most amount of hurries of any tackle in the entire league.

 

 

he's not solid for anything...i'm a niner fan, and i usually try and find the positive in any player, but there were not very many solid moments for him last year. his 2nd or 3rd start of the year last year, he did ok in, and after that, just terrible. only reason he saw any field time last year was because of so many injuries. thank your lucky stars if martin doesn't play a down in 2015 for you...means your oline is healthy and playing somewhat well. and if he does play, means cam is running for his life

Bell was bad cuz he was asked to do too much. He would be a fine backup. And I'm more reasonable and logical than most of the irrational people on this forum.. which is why I refrain from taking personal shots at people

Do too much?  What the heck do you mean by that?

 

You realize that even as a backup he actually has to put a hand on the pass-rusher when he's in the game, right?

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Crixtala · Posted

      all the trades and using PFFs draft rankings and Gemini's analysis: This is a high-value mock draft that effectively uses trade-down strategies to rebuild the Carolina Panthers' defensive interior and add depth to a roster with multiple holes. By turning mid-round capital into a volume of picks, you've secured several "sliding" stars and developmental high-ceiling players. Based on 2026 PFF big board trends and player value, here is the analysis: Draft Grade: A- The Top Picks: Interior Dominance  * 19. Peter Woods (DT, Clemson): Getting Woods at 19 is a steal. Heading into the 2025 season, he was viewed as a potential top-5 talent. While his production dipped slightly, his 4.75 40-yard dash at 315 lbs is elite. He provides the Panthers with a versatile disruptor who can play 3-tech or slide outside.  * 63. Dontay Corleone (DT, Cincinnati): "The Godfather" is one of the best pure nose tackles in the class. Pairing him with Woods creates an immediate identity for the Panthers' front seven. PFF loves his "unmovable" anchor. Securing him at the end of Round 2 after trading down from 51/53 is excellent value. The Mid-Round Steals  * 83. Deontae Lawson (LB, Alabama): Lawson is a high-IQ "green dot" linebacker. Many scouts projected him as a late 1st or early 2nd rounder before an ACL injury in late 2024. Getting a 2-time Alabama captain at 83 to lead the defense is a massive win for culture and stability.  * 130. Drew Allar (QB, Penn State): This is the "high-upside lottery ticket" pick. Allar has prototypical size (6'5", 240 lbs) and a massive arm. His stock fell due to a 2025 ankle injury and inconsistency, but at 130, he’s a low-risk, high-reward backup/successor to Bryce Young if the former No. 1 pick continues to struggle. Trade Analysis & Late Round Value Your strategy of "tier-dropping" (trading 51 for 53/121 and 53 for 63/95) allowed you to stay in the same talent bracket while picking up Kevin Coleman Jr. (WR) and Genesis Smith (S).  * 168. Parker Brailsford (OC, Alabama): Great value for a technical center who can compete for a depth spot.  * 169. Tacario Davis (CB, Washington): At 6'4", he is a rare physical specimen at corner. PFF and other boards often have him as a Day 2 talent; getting him in the 5th round (via the 161 trade) is arguably your best value pick of the draft. Summary of Picks | Pick | Player | Position | School | Analysis | | 19 | Peter Woods | DT | Clemson | Elite traits; Top-10 ceiling. | | 63 | Dontay Corleone | DT | Cincinnati | Best run stuffer in the class. | | 83 | Deontae Lawson | LB | Alabama | Vocal leader; sliding due to injury. | | 121 | Kevin Coleman Jr. | WR | Missouri | Speed threat to complement the room. | | 130 | Drew Allar | QB | Penn State | High-ceiling developmental passer. | | 169 | Tacario Davis | CB | Washington | Massive reach/length for a late flyer. | Final Verdict You addressed the trenches aggressively and took advantage of "injury discounts" on Lawson and Allar. The only minor critique is that the roster still feels thin at Edge (until the 211 pick), but the sheer volume of talent added to the interior DL and Secondary compensates for it.
