How butt hurt will you be when we go "target for Cam" in the first round

Then even more butt hurt when we sign Hardy, you'll say "argh argh argh it will be a miracle if that idiot even stays on the field" ... *proceeds to have 15 sack season*

You're not getting just how badly you've been played.

Can't say I'm surprised.

Oh you must be talking about Kelvin Benjamin, somebody who coach Rivera said came to OTA's overweight then mysteriously tore his ACL in training camp

Look at Jeremy Maclin .. tore his ACL once, looked like he was coming back as strong as ever just to tear it one more time .

Thomas Davis stories don't happen every day and if we think Benjamin will be 100% and for a prolonged period of time, we are being blindly optimistic 

I dont even account for what Benjamin could possibly bring to our team this year because he tore his ACL .. when you do that your long-term effectiveness comes into question .

Whew...are you stinking this joint up or what?

Let's just say that we are stuck in 1983, and players never regain the ability to play football after ACL tears....exactly who do you want to add, how would you make it happen, and how does it affect our salary cap?

In addition, are you really happy about taking balls away from our talented young WR corps that we are putting together here?

And back to the topic, I won't be mad no matter what position we take in round one.

My gut says defense, but I'm thinking more so that Gettleman knows what he's doing and thus I'll be fine with whatever position he drafts at 30.

DT, DE, S, CB, OT absolutely wouldn't shock me.  WR, TE, RB, C/G I wouldn't be as crazy about, but I could see it.

 

Only positions that would surprise me: LB, QB, K, P.  That's about it.

My preference would be pass rusher, pass protector, or lining up Star's or KK's replacement with the thought that we can't sign both.

Hey, 

If liberal ESPN gave him the opportunity to speak on their station to defend himself ... then how can ESPN or any media criticize a team for signing him on the same side of the coin

The PANTHERS signed Hardy, what an awful franchise

ESPN let Hardy speak on their station, what an awful station ?

ESPN is actually getting quite a bit of backlash for interviewing Hardy, including from some of their own people.

Likewise, plenty of people are criticizing Hardy for coming off like a dumbass who just doesn't get it.

So if ESPN can take backlash for letting Hardy speak, just SPEAK, speaking doesn't net sacks .. does letting Hardy speak net anything for ESPN, at all ? It only hurt them apparently

The Panthers can't take a little criticism for letting Hardy play ? At least the criticism would net results, sacks

Like his dominating season last year?

Get over it, kid. Hardy is never going to be a Panther again. Nor should he be.

The team neither needs him nor wants him, so it's not gonna happen.

So wrong, he'll sign here .. if ESPN for fugs sake gave this guy a chance his ex team will

And by ESPN giving him a chance they had a lot more to lose than gain

If the Panthers sign him its a low risk high reward .. by signing him the Panthers wont take any public relations damage .. ESPN ALREADY DID THAT FOR THEM by letting him speak on their station !

And if Hardy is a locker room cancer bring me one incident where he was a problem here ? besides the picture of him in his Bentley going over 100 MPH that rustled everybody here's jimmy's

Do yourself a favor and stop posting, you are out of your league.

 

Also, no follow up on my questions for you?  Who, how, price, etc......Didn't think so.  Just go away.

I don't care if he "fits" what we do.

See, therein lies the problem... he DOESN'T fit.  Just because he's a "hard" runner doesn't make him a fit.

Dude has never run a read-option play with a read-option QB in his life.

      How many Qbs can you name better than Bryce Young?

      By CRA · Posted

      I don't need that many words to say Bryce Young has not yet surpassed the caliber of QB play that current Joe Flacco represents.   I have watched every game Bryce has played.  He doesn't give you average QB play.   He can't make a ton of throws.  Bryce is consistent overall in what he is.  You can take outlier games on both ends of the spectrum out of play and judge him or any QB.....for Bryce it is unquestioned bottom of the league play.  All you have to do is watch the two play.  Flacco is good enough that if you can keep up right and give him time.....he presents a level of play Bryce can't do as a passer

      Not sure.  Which ones have more GWDs in the same time frame?

      You kinda gloss over this, but this is really at the crux of this whole argument....which Flacco are we talking here?  You bring up that he played with 3 different teams but ignore the fact that his performance varied quite a bit from team to team. 2024 Colts: 65.3% completion, 12 TDs, 7 INTs, 220.1 YPG, 7.1 Y/A, 90.5 rating 2025 Browns: 58.1% completion, 2 TDs, 6 INTs, 203.8 YPG, 5.1 Y/A, 60.3 rating 2025 Bengals: 63.4% completion, 12 TDs, 3 INTs, 290.6 YPG, 6.8 Y/A, 96.2 rating 2025 Flacco (Browns + Bengals): 61.1% completion, 14 TDs, 9 INTs, 252.0 YPG, 6.1 Y/A, 80.8 rating vs. 2025 Bryce: 62.7% completion, 14 TDs, 7 INTs, 196.2 YPG, 6.2 Y/A, 86.0 rating I bolded the comparison that I think objectively makes the most sense...just simply comparing the two QBs for the entire season.  Otherwise you'd be cherry-picking Flacco's time with the Bengals and ignoring his earlier stint with the Browns, which sounds an awful lot like people cherry-picking Bryce's stats in the second half of last season. So again, which Flacco?  Basically the only thing consistent with Flacco across each of these teams was his W/L records: 2-4, 1-3, and 1-4 respectively.  I'd say if we're comparing each version of him to Bryce this year: Colts Flacco > 2025 Bryce, Browns Flacco <<< 2025 Bryce, Bengals Flacco >> 2025 Bryce, and 2025 Flacco < 2025 Bryce - Flacco this year only beats out Bryce on YPG but in part because he throws significantly more passes (almost 60 YPG more than Bryce, despite a lower Y/A which is pretty telling) .  Flacco is maybe the most apt case study about how important a QB's circumstances are to his success.  He was easily a bottom 3 QB in Cleveland and arguably top 10-15 in Cincinnati...and we're talking about the same player from the same season.  All that happened was taking him from one team and plopping him onto another team; nothing inherently changed about him as a QB.  Funny enough I think that's all that one dude on here was trying to say when he made that long poorly-received post after having an epiphany working for PFF behind the scenes or w/e.  That it's largely short-sighted to just try to evaluate QBs in a vacuum when there are so many variables at play that ultimately decide whether a QB is successful or not.   I think Bryce has been mediocre at best this season and I'm ready to move on regardless of how he ends this season - I'm highly skeptical a strong end to the season will carry over into next year considering how last year ended and this year began.  I would certainly agree that he's a bottom-third QB this year.  I just don't understand you scoffing indignantly at anyone holding the opinion that Bryce has had a better season than Flacco...I can only assume it's recency bias.  Or maybe you know the stats don't support you, which is why you're conjuring up the god-forsaken arbitrary "eyeball test" which is the kinda thing people in here were saying about Fields for years, pinky promising that he really truly was a franchise QB despite his awful stats.  Perhaps it's called the eyeball test because I roll my eyes anytime I hear someone bring it up seriously as an argument.
