104.3 The Fan rumor. Panthers like McCaffrey at 8.

i would be ok with this if Fournette and Adams is gone...i think Mccaffrey ability in the slot, in the backfield, and special teams plus his speed would help this team greatly. That said drafting him is like taking a more talented Fozzy and I can see how people would not be ok with that at 8.

Yeah, we don't agree on much.  But, there is no way in Hell they do this.  Just doesn't make any sense at all.  I mean, Gettlemen can be stubborn and downright stupid at times.  But no way.  

It's not completely out of nowhere. Our new WR coach...

Taylor coached standout running back Christian McCaffrey throughout his three-year career at Stanford, and now the two-time All-American is looking for a home in the NFL.  

“I think he’d look great in Panther blue and black,” Taylor said with a laugh.

McCaffrey, who finished with 6,987 career all-purpose yards, was a versatile weapon for Stanford, creating big plays as a runner, receiver and returner.

“He made my job so much easier,” Taylor said. “I love Christian as a person and player. He’s great because of how he works and prepares. I’ve said this to people, he reminds me of Luke Kuechly with his work ethic and leadership on and off the field. He’s the first one in the building and the last to leave. He wants to study, he wants to perfect his craft. That’s what makes him special.

“I know he’s going to have a ton of success at the next level. I would love for it to be with us. But I’ll be cheering him on wherever he goes.”

    • Yes, he's a tier above them, but you also touched on the money side of it.  With T-Mac locked in as our #1 on a rookie contract for a few more years, I'd much rather use that money that would be needed for DJ on our defense and develop Coker into our #2.   Especially given his contract situation as an UDFA, as his contract is up at the end of this year but we can keep him around for a 3rd team controlled year on the real cheap.  Which means we probably could get him to sign a very reasonable extension this offseason to give him a little more money while giving us a bargain contract for what he provides. DJ's contract is north of $20 million for the next 5 years, why pay that for your #2 WR with the needs we have on defense and you have guys like Coker, XL, and Horn on rookie contracts who very well could combine to be a serviceable 2-4 WRs behind a stud in T-mac? I love DJ and he'd be a great fit on this team as our #2, but the money side of it just makes absolutely zero sense, that's all it comes down to for me on this one. And no, I don't see the Bears wanting XL back in that trade, because they drafted Burden, who is essentially a better version of what XL provides, a player you want to get the ball into their hands and let them go to work.
    • I didnt see that many bad calls in the panthers cowboys game, but the chiefs especially in the playoffs were getting every single call they could get then the refs when it didnt matter would throw a call towards the other teams.  That I believe was the taylor swift effect.   But its crazy just thinking about how easy it is to change a game.  You dont need but a single ref to make a few close calls go towards one team over the other and in the nfl that is the game.  
    • I don't think it's unrealistically blaming Bryce Young......to say has been a reason, sometimes a big one, in why our pass offense overall has been extremely week over the past 3 collective seasons.  I think that bothering anyone, is just being overly invested in some Bryce Young argument.  It's just a reality.
