Olsen moves into the top 10

Greg is massively underappreciated around the league because of the way Gronk is making a mockery of the position in a good way. When you're playing at the same time as probably the best TE of all time in terms of receiving, it can diminish your shine a bit. But don't get it twisted, Greg is right there approaching Gronk. If he can snap up a few more years with Cam and win a Super Bowl or two, we might be fitting him for a jacket.

Gronk's goal is to be the dumbest player ever inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

He's definitely on pace to achieve that goal.

I'll admit to thinking that Olsen was drafted high because he was a Miami TE/ combine warrior. Totally thought Shockey and WInslow Jr. were better prospects/players in the long run.

Seemed to be correct for a few years in Chicago.

Olsen is a great example of how being in the right place (or being in the wrong one) can have such a drastic impact on your career. What a player, and more importantly, leader we found in Greg.

    • I'm not a huge fan of BY, but he does have some clutchness developing
    • While you're correct, people are just sick of being told, "you don't understand this, you're dumb" despite what their eyes say. This applies to the Panthers and anything else in life. This board can be a miserable place, but this isn't the old days anymore because Social Media & Reddit have hijacked old-school forum users.  I have in the last year or so taken a massive step back from Social Media & Reddit. Deleted accounts on both, I only have X/Twitter now. But I was looking for an outlet for Panthers talk and I did not want to do that on X much at all. There are only two legitimate outlets for that I've found, here and SB Nation. SB Nation I used to partake in, but they absolutely bumble-f*cked the comments section, and I like the setup of the posts + comments, as opposed to article + comments. Also, as others have pointed out, being a Panthers fan has been a horrendous existence since Cam left. Just an awful crew of coaches, draft picks, trading away great players, etc. It's been miserable.  Ever since Tepper bought the team, I hoped that he commit to a full rebuild. He never did, he thought there were shortcuts and so did Rhule. This hamstrung us for years, and then he massively overstepped with the BY trade.  This ruined the team building, because there was no depth, and then it ruined nuanced BY discussions because of the insane haul we gave up. He will never live up to that, I think many people are finally wrapping their heads around that now which is good. The best thing for this board to get better is for the Panthers to win more, draft well, and to stay committed to crawling through this Andy Dufrense poop-pipe to escape the depths of NFL hell. It will be ugly and stink along the way, but you can see already this year if we commit to drafting then the team and the vibes can turn around quicker than you think.  I am extremely optimistic about the draft class this season, it's something to watch, talk about, and celebrate. It also gives Dan and I think by extension Dave Canales more of a leash, which I think we need to give them and grant them the time to turn this boat around.
