Can speak much about the rookies but I’ll ask this, how important do y’all think it is we add a corner? I’d like to go wr and S in rounds 1 and 2 personally. After that I think a corner in rounds 3 or 4 would be great competition for Worley and Bradberry. But let’s not forget our D was great last year, top 10 in the league? Focus has got to be on offense

With TD about to retire in 2018 somewhere we need a LB.  Our DE position being a weak point in our front 7.  They have to be addressed as well.

I really think if we address round one of the best of the following most will be Happy, WR, DE, S, CB, OT and possibly (but doubt round 1) RB.

I think most will freak out if we grab a LB.

These priorities will change after Free Agency providing we actually go free agency.

If Hurney is drafting, we'll end up with a stud in round one and then after that we might as well have a blind man throwing darts at the board with his bad arm. Hopefully we'll get another player or two after the 1st but don't hold your breath.

This,..

thats why I’m almost more interested in who we could trade a 2nd or 3rd round pick for?

hurneys best non first round pick choice he ever did was trading a 3rd round pick for Greg Olsen.

so I know he will do it, has done it and could do it again now for a receiver, corner or safety.

He picked up R. Kalil in round three.  You can bet that Turner will have a lot of input and if Wilks doesn't leave you can expect him to have some input as well. 

Hurney is worse on trades outside of Olsen.  Remember he traded 2009 first for Otah and 2010 first for E. Brown.  So don't get too hyped over trading.

The trades for draft picks he sucks at because he sucks drafting outside of round 1.

he traded for Olsen but Olsen was already a proven commodity.

trades for Everette Brown and Jeff Otah were draft picks, not proven commodities.

yes he got Kalil in round 3, but most of his 2nd and 3rds such as Dwayne Jarrett, Ryne Robinson, Armanti Edwards, Corey whatever Thay fat lineman’s name was— the list goes on and on.

he can’t draft 2nd 3rd and 4th rounds to save his life

so I would rather him trade our 2nd and 3rd rounders for proven players.

I posted in the Hurney the worst ever thread.  A list of all his picks.  Round 1 he was money but after that, you're right.  

Teams that are looking to trade a player, that player most likely has baggage.   Pick your poison, player with baggage or 50/50 on good or bad.

On the offensive side I don't see Hurney selecting without Turner's input so that should help.  Rivera and the OC should have the defense.

I will cringe as they get ready to announce the draft picks after round one.   I am hoping Hurney listens to someone other than that "GM in his brain that works for Madden"

I feel like if you get a stud Safety in the draft who can replace Adams, and Coleman can somehow find his 2015 form, then Bradberry will look much better. Worley needs to lose some weight and be fast enough to not have to play off the ball so far. 

But also, if we signed a decent starting CB who could not only push both Bradberry and Worley to the next level, but also help coach them up, that would be ideal.

Kalil was drafted in round 2.

      Panthers coverage efficiency

      By NAS · Posted

      Call me crazy but if you’re in the bottom 7 in efficiency using Zone 84% of the time why not try something else? You paid Jaycee top 5 CB money use him more effectively. Zone is only efficient if you can generate a good pass rush to force a QB into mistakes otherwise you will get picked apart

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Good Lord this board has become a cesspool of negativity and where fandom becomes something twisted and unrecognizable.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.
