All jokes aside. Im really starting to think all the top WRs are gone by 25.

During a NFL season, the term "getting hot at the right time" Is thrown around a lot, a few years back when the Giants made their unexpected SB run with a 9-7 record, you heard it abunch of times, "The Giants just got hot at the right time." Thats exactly how I feel about this WR class.

The hype about these current crop of WRs has been sky rocketing faster these last few weeks, faster than the nasdaq in the late 90s. WRs like Nelson Agolohor and Breshad Perriman, once considered by many as 2nd round picks are now suddenly being projected as top 15, hell some even saying top 12-13 picks of this draft.

There is no denying that after last year's very strong crop of WRs in the 1st round, GMs and coaches wont want to miss out again on the next great WR.

Amari Cooper, Kevin White, Nelson Agolohor, Breshad Perriman, Jaelen Strong, Devante Parker. The closer draft day comes the easier it is to see every single one of these WRs gone in the top 20. The unfortunate thing for us is typically you could say "Oh yah! That means such and such star player will fall to us." But this year I just dont see that "falling star" type of player. Im afraid once all the top flight WRs are gone, Gettleman will hold his nose and turn in his selection and settle for a average player and hope for the best.

I know we joke a lot on here how 64 players will be gone by the time we pick at 25, while that is a funny joke, unfortunatley we may have to accept the reality that all the good WRs will be gone by 25.

If all of the WRs are gone by 25, so will ALL of the OTs and DEs. Prospects are rising because there are "only" 15-20 of them with first round grades, supposedly. If you're drafting after 20, the players that you are drafting probably have a second round grade on them. Unless, you get lucky and one of the top 15-20 fall to you. Can't count on being lucky ALL OF THE TIME.

You obviously don't have a brain well suited for being a GM/draft manager. It is not possible for all 6 of those WR to be gone by the first 24 picks much less the first 20. There are too many talented players out there at other positions that those team could not possibly pass on to take a wr not in the top 4.

 

Oh and ...... Stop making such asinine threads!

    • This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.
    • Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
