Are we going to waste another first round pick on defense?

Since 2011 we have used

2 first round picks on offense, 4 on defense 

2 second round picks on offense, 4 on defense 

1 third round pick on offense, 3 on defense 

3 forth round picks on offense, 4 on defense 

 

Just completely utterly lopsided. This front office has avoided offense like a plague.  No QB in NFL history has gotten less help than Cam.  Straight up disgraceful

more than likely. The only thing we would take really high on offense is a RB. I can't see us taking an offensive linemen as high as we will draft. I hope we trade back in the first and another pick and take a running back and offensive linemen. We will probably stay put and take a CB, safety, or DE

Finally, people are starting to see the problem with our team since we have drafted Newton. We take Newton at No. 1 overall...Newton comes into the worst offense of all time...Newton goes out and sets all kinds of records with said terrible offense.

Instead of trying to surround Newton with ACTUAL talent...the Panthers Front Office goes defense, defense, defense, defense...Forgetting that our HC is SUPPOSED to do more with less.

It is the same moronic philosophy with the Rex Ryan. Ryan is supposed to be a defensive genius...yet the Jets and the Bills ALWAY invest in defense, defense, defense...and leave his offense out to dry.

What the hell is the purpose of hiring Rivera, who is supposed to do more with less, and then going disproportionately defense so that his defense can give up 500 yards to Julio Jones and make Sam Bradford look like he is a ProBowler?

Your starting 2017 DEs: Myles Garrett and JPP

Depends on who's on the board. I wouldn't necessarily see a guy like Peppers or Garrett as a "waste".

I'd rather have an OT, but I'm just not sure there's anyone there I'm comfortable with.

Garrett is not in the same stratosphere as Peppers as prospect.

I would take a any OT really, since it would be a MAJOR of what we got now

    • Okay then. To me that means Russell Wilson was Coryell. Because I see the proposition completely in the Russell Wilson punt/pass put it up for grabs mold. Count on the receiver to catch it or knock it down.    And the reason I thought that was the intent with Legette is the abysmal downfield game from 2023. As in, there was barely any.   I look at it as if… the result of a deep attempt isn’t as important as the opponent understanding they have to defend it. So I was all for some 50/50s. Coryell, Walsh whoever.  I do favor the Coryell approach personally but also very much value versatility, it doesn’t have to be strict. Just make the defense defend the whole field, however you do it. It has to include downfield throws.     
    • Sold, or in the process of being sold. Could be either way. Consider this for a second... Last season, our defensive coordinator steered what many have called the worst defense in NFL history.  Canales would absolutely have been justified in firing him, and no one would have blamed him if he had.  But what did he do? He gave Evero another chance to come back and prove he could be better. Does that tell us something about Canales? I think it does. Now apply that to Bryce 😕
    • Canales has never been part of big YAC offenses in the NFL.  That’s not his tree.  Not in Seattle, Tampa or here.  Every O he has been associated with basically has been bottom half of the league in YAC.  That’s what Bryce needs to happen though  2 very different things….and very much gets into why the middle school QB doesn’t fit
