Well are our first three selections of 2019 better than any other of our first three of any other draft we’ve had?

What have they done to make u think that? McCaffrey has looked really great but I wouldn't say this is best ever not even close. I would say our last couple of drafts have been pretty much garbage. So now u see why we have to bring in old ass people because we have no good youth. Now we are paying for it as a team killing Cam's and Luke's SB chances.

Our last two drafts have been good. 2014-2016 were awful.

2001 and it's not even close.

It would be almost impossible to beat Dan Morgan, Kris Jenkins, and Steve Smith for your first 3 picks. It was an all-time great draft for any team, and unquestionably the best in Panthers history.

That is how you go from 1-15 to the Super Bowl in 2 years. Along with the FA signings of Stephen Davis, Jake Delhomme, & Ricky Proehl 

Also shows how dramatically things can change in 2 years in the NFL and the utmost importance of the draft.

Back to OP, I assume he was referring to this past draft (2018). It does look like it was the best draft we have had in a lot time, although need more time to fully evaluate.

Also gives me hope in the ability for the 2019 Panthers to bounce back despite the changes on the team provided we have another successful draft like we did last year.

No good youth? What an idiot. 

McCaffrey at RB, Turner and Moton on the OL, Moore and Samuel at WR, and that’s just the starting point.

The Panthers have quietly reloaded a lot of the offense the last 2 years. Still need help on Oline but the offense should be explosive provided Cam is healthy.

Need to have another good draft, especially on defense/Oline, but this team is not that far away from competing... so much of it hinges on Cam.

Exactly. If we find good dline pieces, get rid of Mike Adams, and Cam gets healthy again we could be turn into a contender.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By frankw · Posted

      The same folks crying about the OL right now were crying about it in 2023 too. We have tied up over 100 million dollars in two interior olinemen alone and we have Taylor Moton inked to a recent extension. We've invested multiple first and second round picks in the offense. We hired an offensive minded head coach. This is an offensive team. The offense needs to produce or people need to be replaced.

      This is the same place that has ridiculed and blasted Caleb Williams at every opportunity he has his team sitting at 10-4 in the same NFC that the Panthers are competing in. And their division in the NFC North is as or more competitive as our division. Yet from the same people who have very high standards for Williams we get every excuse imaginable for the smallest starting QB in the league even when he and his team continue to disappoint when the pressure is on. You lot aren't any less inconsistent than anyone else.

      The Panthers are 9th in cap spent on offense this year.  However next season is already a different story  The Panthers as it stands right now will be 18th in cap spent on offense and 8th in cap spent on defense  The Panthers are currently set to spend more on defense next year than they are on offense this season Guys like Jaycee and Moehrig cap numbers take a big jump. Wharton has a massive cap hit   Jaycee Moehrig and Wharton in 2025 The same 3 in 2026 So this same defense as it stands right now will cost more in 2026 than this offense does right now… Got anything else you want to try?
