Cutting Cash would really be a head scratcher to me. We've seen what Ben Jacobs is and can be, I feel Cash has a much much higher ceiling and could possibly become an extrmely valuable commodity 

Would not mind seeing the Panthers go single high safety with a 46 style defense, Keep Cash on the field as a rover while leaving Coleman deep at FS instead of having a dedicate SS.

Ben Jacobs is expendable now with Mayo improving.

CAP.

But I'm feeling pretty secure about that.

I know people dislike Fozzy but I remember back to the end of the 2014 season

we really need to find a way to get CAP and Fozzy into the short pass game.  They can be big play makers IMO.  And not using that horrible fake double screen play 20 times

Will be bummed if Cash and Byrd don't make it. Honestly don't envision either one being cut. Too much potential.

Love Wegher but he's definitely our 5th best running back if you count Tolbert. Could see him making it though for ST if we only keep 3 TE's.

Think we need to keep 5 DE's for depth. Im guessing CJ, Ealy, Addison, Horton, and Delaire.  As concerned about our depth at DE as anywhere else. Hopefully we could resign Kyle Love if we needed another DT. Our top 4 DT's are as good as any in the league.

If Donald Hawkins continues to progress, maybe he could be adequate backup to Oher. Certainly better than Foucault.  Feel ok about the rest of our O-line depth. Darryl Williams may develop into a decent RT but he's definitely not a LT.

Hope we've seen the last of the Teddy Williams penalty extravaganza. Thought Lou Young would have made more of an impact. Feel ok about the 3 Amigos, Bene, and McClain at CB with our front 7.

Hope Boston can become a starter we can count on. Certainly don't feel great about safety, but I've felt that way for years.  Been a long time since we had a Mike Minter/Deon Grant type 1-2 punch back there. I honestly would be happy with a pairing on par with Chris Harris/Charles Godfrey (before he was hurt). Obviously Kurt Coleman was solid in this scheme last year, but he hasn't been a perennial Pro Bowler or even starter for that matter.

Feel really good about QB, RB, WR, DT, and starting O-Line. That's a big leg up on a lot of teams.

Besides the fact that I would hate a draft pick not being on the roster, he is potentially one of the best blocking tight ends, potentially one of the most versatile, and I know playing on the field with his fellow hurricane tight end Greg Olsen might do wonders for his rookie year.

FIFY

He really hasn't shown himself as a good blocker or a versitale player in the preseason. Maybe he looks different in practice?

He got his ass beat all preseason. Driven back on almost every block he made.

Lou Young. Especially now that Sanchez has been released (I realize that I'm a day late posting). He checks all the physical boxes we look for in a CB, and has been doing all the right things in practice. 

Lou has been talked up early but the forgotten guy lately. I hope he can help fill the spot that Sanchez couldn't.

      Thoughts on using AI for drafting?

      By NCBlu · Posted

      Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.

      Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
