JUST ME HAVING A LITTLE FUN. BEEN HELLA BORIN' ON HERE. IT HAS HIT A STALL-POINT ON HERE.

 

IM NOT DOING ANY CUTS. THE MIKE TOLBERT FANS, YOU GUYS SHOULD BE VERY HAPPY. YALL CAN STILL WEAR #35 TO BOA STADIUM. 

IM NOT RE-SIGNING TED GINN, CJ, KLEIN, ETC. 

 

2017 PROJECTED CAP SPACE: $50 MILLION

 

*FRANCHISE TAG: 
KAWANN SHORT, DT - $15MIL

 

*FREE AGENCY:

ERIC BERRY, SS - 5YR/55MIL
IMG_3368_zps7exikads.jpg
GMAN FINALLY MAKE A STATEMENT WITH THIS SIGNING. BERRY WILL BE THE HIGHEST PAID SAFETY IN THE LEAGUE. HAVE A SEAT ON THE BENCH, TRE BOSTON. IT WAS HORRIFYING TO WATCH AT TIMES LAST SEASON. ERIC BERRY WILL HELP SLOW MATT RYAN, JULIO JONES, AND CO DOWN IN 2017-2018. 

RILEY REIFF, OT - 4YR/27MIL
IMG_3369_zpst2lrxqxr.jpg
GMAN HAS SAID THAT HE ISN'T GOING TO REACH FOR AN OT. A WEAK CLASS OF OT IN THIS YEAR DRAFT WILL HAVE GMAN LOOKING FOR HELP IN FREE AGENCY. REIFF HAS NOT LIVED UP TO HIS EXPECTATIONS, BUT HE'S ALSO NOT THAT BAD. REIFF IS AN UPGRADE OVER MIKE REMMERS AND WILL NOT COST AN ARM OR LEG.

MARIO WILLIAMS, DE - 1YR/6MIL
IMG_3370_zpsakzoafi4.jpg
THE PANTHERS NEED HELP AT DE, AND MARIO WILLIAMS NEEDS A TEAM. WILLIAMS IS GOING TO TAKE A ONE YEAR PROVE IT DEAL AND TRY TO HIT THE MARKET AGAIN IN 2018. CAROLINA IS THE BEST CHANCE FOR HIM TO DO THAT. 

CAPTAIN MUNNERLYN, CB - 2YR/2.5MIL
IMG_3371_zpsrzk04pnq.jpg
CAP GETS TO COME BACK HOME. AN UPGRADE OVER LEONARD JOHNSON. ALONG WITH ERIC BERRY, OUR SECONDARY JUST GOT LOT MORE EXPERIENCED. CAP WILL HELP RETURN SOME PUNTS WITH THE DEPARTURE OF TED GINN. 

BRANDON LAFELL, WR, 1YR/2.5MIL
IMG_3372_zpshwlqfi4b.jpg
GUESS WHO'S ALSO BACK IN CAROLINA? DONALD LAFELL. WITH FUNCHESS PLAYING LIKE poo LAST SEASON, LAFELL IS BROUGHT BACK HERE TO COMPETE FOR THAT NO2 SPOT. THE MAN HAD A DECENT SEASON LAST YEAR: 64REC, 862YD, 6TD. 

 

2017 DRAFT (4 ROUND MOCK)
(1) SOLOMON THOMAS, DE, STANFORD
IMG_3374_zpsfzfetm8k.jpg
SOME FANS ARE GOING TO LIKE THIS PICK, SOME ARE GOING TO HATE IT. I JUST BELIEVE THAT LEONARD FOURNETTE WILL BE GONE TO JAX OR NYJ BEFORE OUR PICK. GMAN IS TAKING YET ANOTHER D-LINEMAN BC THOMAS IS JUST THAT DAMN GOOD. HE HAD ONE HELL OF A GAME VS. UNC IN THE BOWL GAME. THOMAS IS 6'3" AND 273LB; SLIGHTLY BIGGER THAN DEREK BARNETT SO I DONT GET HOW SOME ARE TRYING TO SAY THAT HE'S A TWEENER. THOMAS IS GOING TO BEAT AND WEAR HIS OPPONENTS DOWN ALL GAME LONG; SIMILAR TO JJ WATT. HE'S NOT FANCY, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GETTING. HIS OPPONENTS' ASSHOLES ARE GOING TO BE TIGHTER THAN TIGHT ON SUNDAYS. 

(2) CHRISTIAN MCCAFFREY, RB, STANFORD
IMG_3376_zpsk6jgkqob.jpg
THERE'S BEEN RUMORS THAT CAROLINA IS A BIG FAN OF MCCAFFREY. LANCE TAYLOR WILL BE ALL OVER GMAN'S EARS SCREAMING "CHRISTIAN MCCAFFREY". MCCAFFREY ISNT YOUR NORMAL "WHITE BOY" RUNNING BACK. HIS DAD IS THE LEGENDARY BRONCO, ED MCCAFFREY AND HIS MOTHER WAS A SOCCER PLAYER. HE'S A DARREN SPROLES TYPE OF OFFENSIVE WEAPON. JUST GET HIM ON THE FIELD. HE'LL MAKE A LIVING IN THE NFL FOR 10-12 PLUS YEARS. HE'S A PERFECT FIT HERE IN CAROLINA WITH CAM NEWTON AND SHULA'S OPTION SYSTEM. HE'LL ALSO HELP RETURN KICKS AND PUNTS.

(3) TANOH KPASSAGNON, DE, VILLANOVA
IMG_3378_zps5jlqsm1i.jpg
GMAN WAS A BIG FAN OF KPASSAGNON AT THE SENIOR BOWL. STANDING AT 6'7" AND WEIGHING 280LB, HE'S A MASSIVE GUY; DAVE GETTLEMAN TYPE OF HOG MOLLIES. TANOH IS VERY RAW AND BEEN THROUGH SOME INJURIES, BUT THERE'S A LOT TO LIKE ABOUT HIM. 

(3) JAKE BUTT, TE, MICHIGAN
IMG_3377_zpsfolcp6ex.jpg
BUTT IS MY FAVORITE TE IN THIS DRAFT. RUNS VERY GOOD ROUTES AND POSSESS NATURAL HANDS. FROM THE JOSH NORMAN COMP PICK, YOU CAN TAKE HIM HERE. LET HIM LEARN FROM GREG. 

(4) SAM ROGERS, FB, VIRGINIA TECH
IMG_3379_zpsgcqnlgh5.jpg
TIME TO GET A REAL FULLBACK. I MISS THE BRAD HOOVER DAYS. ROGERS CAN DO IT ALL: RUN, CATCH, PASS BLOCK AND LEAD BLOCK. ALSO, A VERY GOOD SPECIAL TEAM GUY. HIS ONLY KNOCK IS GOING TO BE HIS SIZE; 5'11''. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TELL ME WHAT YOU LIKE AND WHAT YOU DONT LIKE. ALL COMMENTS WELCOME, BC I REALLY DONT GIVE A FUG. THIS IS GOING TO BE A FUN OFFSEASON.

Didn't  Butt tear his ACL in his bowl game? AND that would be a huge HELL NO on that full back from VT. Everything else is tolerable. Don't know what to think about Captain and Donald coming back though.

Yea, Butt did. Still a very talented player. Take him with the additional comp pick from Josh Norman. Sit him out and have him learn from Greg.

I feel you but the Panthers need people that can play NOW! They don't have time to have to round draft picks "red shirt" a year. I liked Butt before he got hurt.

I mean if it all worked out like this I'd be ecstatic. Your FA signings have way too many names we recognize though.  Draft picks are solid. Obviously I'd much rather have Fournette but Thomas is a decent consolation prize. I'm good with McCaffrey in the 2nd. Love Tanoh in the 3rd (don't think he lasts that long.). The others I could take or leave. They're late round picks, a craps shoot anyway.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
