I seen a lot of mocks with a TE at 8th? Panthers Fan here from day 1, 95! I feel like we do need a RB! I don't like the DE pick either when we lead the league in sacks! Finished 2nd in league with 48 an 49 was the best! So RB or CB is the tire need here! I'm happy we got back CAP41, still a need in that CB position! We had the worst secondary in the NFL! An I offense struggled to get anything going we need a explosive player on offense! What do y'all think?

Corner is not that big of a need. The secondary was bad at the start of the year, but both Worely and Bradberry came into their own, and with the changes made this off season they will be even better.

Captain in at nickel, which we play a majority of the time, is going to be huge.

Adams at strong safety is a ball hawk, and will allow Coleman to move back to free safety where he had 10 ints a season ago. 

I think, RB, or WR is a bigger need, although I do agree that pick 8 is high for a WR this year.

IF you go by value alone, DE will be BPA. 

IF you believe offense over defense for whatever reason, then there is no way you can discredit the talent and impact Howard would have. Fournette is talented and will have big impact also, but in a draft that is so deep at RB, the BPA probably tilts toward Howard.

i think you try and draft an impact player in the first no matter the position.  imagine if the panthers didn't take Kuechly at 9 because they already had Beason. I think gettleman will draft whoever he thinks can make an immediate impact and will be a game changer .  what he has done in FA tells me that he's set the team up to take BPA at 8.  we'll see

To be fair, it is a very deep TE class as well. Lots of talent at the position with still be available with or seconds or comp. in the 3rd.

      Wish they started at 5:30 or 6 at the latest so I can watch it. I have to be in bed by start time.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.
