Panthers don’t pick up Butler’s fifth-year option

Looking back at 2016 draft grades for a good chuckle. Lots of B+ type grades going around, just to show you draft grades don't mean poo.

 

Speaking of, check out this quote from Zack Sanchez lol

Best playmaker in draft: Sanchez doesn’t lack for confidence. He recently was quoted as saying: “I’m the best defensive playmaker in the draft, hands down. Nobody can create turnovers the way that I can. Nobody gets their hands on more balls than I do. There are obviously things in my technique that I have to fix, but I have something you can’t coach: That’s natural instincts and a gift for making plays. You can’t coach players to make plays.’’ Sounds like something Norman would say.

Gettleman got fired for his 2016 draft + Josh Norman being botched

Yep... 2016 was a comedy of errors for Gettleman.  That along with 2010 for Hurney IMO are the worst years by a GM in the Panthers history

Wasn’t there a lot of speculation that JR wasn’t allowing Hurney to do much in ‘10 because of the potential lockout?  Not sure how legit that was though. 

Hurney’s 2009-2011 drafts were terrible outside of Hardy and Cam.  And Munnerlyn was good for a 7th rounder.

    • Brother I hate to tell you but that's a terrible draft. You hit at 51 but the rest is...not good.
    • If you check next year there's 50 mill in cap space, * without this years draft class or next. 5+ should allow this year given its top 51. Next it jumps and you need another 5-10 mill for 27 draft class. Most team like to carry 10 into each season for injuries. It goes fast....... I feel it pains as a "hater" *but* if my fav Panthers team decides BY is thee guy......(just how...)... I feel they should offer that malik Willis contract as the goal and base for a contract.  I believe they feel strong enough to sign these top FA, they are going for it right now........ So that hurts my idea of drafting a starting QB in 27 or even 26....Its hard to reset "going all-in" with a rookie QB learning the NFL game. Hell who knows what QB will be cut after this year too, no one thought Tua or Murray was getting cut before this past season, NO ONE. Watson could be a FA at any point this or next.  Honestly wildcard in this mofo is using the 19th on TY simp, let him learn at his own pace and flip BY for a mid pick or just ride him for the whole 5th year. Now you have a low cap hit young QB that's been learning for 2 years and you got him for the next 3 if he's the guy.....why not!?!?!!?
    • Mike Kaye replying to above post: ”If he plays well next year, they will almost certainly restructure to open up cap and push down the cap number. His contract becomes guaranteed for Year 3 early in Year 2 unless he essentially bombs. I think 3 years, $90 million is the deal, which will almost certainly be reworked if successful. If it doesn’t, pretty notable gamble (let’s not kid glove this).  As with any deal there is nuance.” https://x.com/mike_e_kaye/status/2033246139026174146?s=46
