Thompson...

80 tkls, 3 Int, 2 FF

Day 1 starting OLB, athletic playmaker that's used as a wildcard to roam around. Pushes Carolina's defense to #1 in the NFL.

Funchess...

55 Rec 800 Yd 8 TD

Day 1 starter, fills puzzle opposite Benjamin-Olsen to give Carolina an imposing passing game.

Williams...

16 game starter at RT

Mauling road grader in the run game and effective pass protector.

Mayo & Cameron...

Backups who contribute to a massively improved Special Teams unit.

Panthers defeat Ravens to win Super Bowl 50.

Nippleshorts tells 89 to ice up.

this draft, it will be hard for analysts to give it better than D. Everybody thought Strong was better than Funchess. We could have had Strong by just burning #57, instead we burned #41, #89 and #201 for Funchess. In other words we gave up two extra Top 200 prospects for Funchess. If another team did that, we would all be laughing at them and calling them dumb. You see any C or higher grades, that is a sign of great respect for Gettleman

Is gettlemanjack trolling with this commentary? I surely hope so.

Gettleman himself would agree with me. Even the greatest make huge mistakes. Look at Pete Carroll in the SB. Nobody considers him less great because of that. This weekend, another GM was sharing the story of a blunder he made that cost him a prospect he wanted, but the one he got instead turned out to be just as good, and he said sometimes your blunders work in your favor.

What exactly is Pete Prisco's problem? He lives to slam the Panthers. Did the Big Cat bang his girlfriend or something?

 

Prisco joined CBS sometime in the early-2000s.  Prior to that, he was the Jacksonville Jaguars beat writer for the first four or five years of their existence.

 

During his tenure covering the Jags with the Florida Times-Union, Prisco famously got into an online pissing match with Observer columnist Tom Sorenson over the Jags and Panthers.  From what I can recall reading, it got personal and fairly vicious.  This was before social media, mind you.  I can only imagine what it would have been like if they'd have had Twitter.

 

He's now "officially" a national guy and supposedly objective, but I'd say the reality is he still dislikes the Panthers and relishes any opportunity he takes to get in a dig at them.

those are grades are for the whole draft. We didn't take an OT the whole draft. If you were grading the Panthers, the grade would be "Downright Idiotic F"

 

Giving the Panthers an F for last year's draft would be idiotic indeed.

      Ekwonu doesn’t get dog walked under 2 minutes in the 4th, we drive, kick a FG and win

      A lot of young QB's struggle with holding on to the ball top long. He has gotten better progressively in that regard. Pocket Time(in Sec):  2.5(2023), 2.3(2024), 2.2(2025) Time to Throw(in Sec): 2.9(2023), 2.79(2024), 2.82(2025) The divedends have been fairly small, is the issue.

      If you can only fire ONE person before 2026....

      I'm firing DC, though I think it actually makes the job less attractive. He's not prepared to be a HC and it's showed. A new HC is not going to be tied automatically to BY. He's going to want to bring in some level of competition in the QB room because anyone who has ever watched football knows our QB room is lacking. If he doesn't, that tells a more interesting tale of who's really calling the shots.  Dave hasn't been decisive enough in game and that leadership council BS has trust fall vibes. Our offense has been pathetically stale and vanilla. Our run game while good has made no sense based on who has been playing best. Our defense is improved but they can't be expected to hold opposing teams to below 17 a game because our offense can't score consistently.  We've beaten some teams we shouldn't have beaten, specifically GB and the Rams, and I think our record doesn’t accurately reflect where the team and the coaching really is. We've fallen flat against a geriatric rookie QB leading a 2-10 NO team and got our ass handed to us TWICE. We're unprepared for the biggest games.  This is what happens though when real coaching candidates turn down interviews because your owner is a narcissistic butthole. You get someone no one else bothered to call and you get the results everyone else would have expected if they had.

      The Saints would be 2-12 if not for us. We are 50% of their wins. A organization serious about the playoffs does not get bullied by a sh*t team like the Saints TWICE. It's over my brotha.
