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 LegioX · Posted

      Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
