RUMOR: Panthers looking to move up to 16-20th pick

Kugbila may very well not have been BPA but unless you have access to the Panthers draft board then there is absolutely no way to know that conclusively. He also could have been ranked very highly on our board which could have been a scouting failure or he just hasn't been healthy enough for us to ever find out if he's any good. The player who went immediately after Kugbila was David Bakhtiari who has started 32 straight games at LT for the Packers so there was definitely a miss there though.

You are right...there is no way to know for sure.  I'm just saying that I hope Kugbilla was the highest rated player on our board, because that would mean that Gettleman has a strong conviction in his own philosophy and is a man of his word.  So far, I have good reason to believe him, because his actions so far seem to back up his words (not taking an OT when it was a HUGE need, doubling up on DTs in rounds 1 and 2, not overpaying in FA just to fill a need, etc.).  You dont have to reach when you are good at finding talent and good fits in the lower half of your roster. He has shown he can do just that.

What if we acquire a pick or trade up days before the draft? Is the player we select not BPA?

What if we acquire a pick for a player without giving up picks of our own? Is the player selected not BPA?

It's all semantics.

 

Once you understand the concept, all of those questions can be answered very easily, and you wont get confused by semantics.

Giving up a third would suck but I really want dgb.. Him and kb would be a amazing one/two for years to come

yea but you have to know there's no way JR would let Gettleman draft a guy who admitted to pushing his gf down three flights of stairs if he wouldn't let him resign an elite DE whose only crime since joining the team was associating with a gold digger and getting hustled.

Think about 6'5 and 6'6 receivers and a 6'5 tight end with cam extending plays down in the redzone.. We could have a scary offense.

There have been a countless number of tall receivers that haven't worked out so well.

 

I just want a receiver that can get open and catch the ball.. If anything, I actually think I like the idea of having receivers with different skill sets.

Same 3 teams that most "experts" had us finishing behind before the year, much less before losing 10% of our cap over political face saving bullchit.

Who cares about experts, they were right about us. Most had us as an 8-8 team before the season and we finished under that. They just didn't know the rest of the division would be worse.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
