Panthers deepest and least deep positions.

We are deep but very thin on "proven" WR's. That is why the national media consistently overlooks them. If Samuel makes it through a season healthy, he will get some respect. If DJ Moore is able to avoid the sophomore slump, he will also get some national attention. But, that also hasn't happened yet.

LT is deep. It may not be our best starting spot but we’ve got Daryl, Little and Moton with Daley as well. We need one of the first two to step up and seize the spot but saying it isn’t deep is a mistake. I’d say it’s deeper than last year (Moton was backup for both spots) or back in 2015 where we had 1 LT and 2 RTs. You were the one asserting that Williams had been successful at LT before so having 3 guys who can play LT and 3 guys who can play RT is much better off than last year or 2015. 

I think you are listing a lot of guys that are probably much more RT's than they are quality LT's, so I cannot disagree with Jeremy on his assertion that we are thin at LT.

ILB. I'm also not sold on Shaq. He really seems to be a "system" guy, not an all around great player. If Kuechly goes, there's nothing but unprovens behind him.

PR/KR - there's no don't have a slam dunk here. Whoever loses rock, paper, scissors, I guess.

Its about name recognition. We know DJ, and Curtis, most people don't. Hogan and Torrey probably have more name recognition outside the Panther's fan base. If things go well for the Panthers, that will change.

    • If Mays has a market, which it seems he will, he's gone.  I think we bring back Nijman for too much money to be cautious at LT, Corbett comes back cheap since he's already said he wants to live in CLT, and Christensen eventually gets re-signed with the hopes he can be depth at some point.  Draft an OT, draft a C. The OL might be rough for stretches next year, but time to get some youth there to prepare for Bryce in 2027 or the next QB. I still think we compete for the division in 2026 and can go back to the playoffs unlike the oddsmakers in Vegas, but the *real* year is 2027 IMO. Either Bryce has proven it and he's the QB looking at his 2nd contract, or we have the ready-made team for the next rookie QB or Vet we trade for. 
    • The Panthers are going to have a lot more flexibility in free agency than it looks like at first glance. On paper, the cap space might seem tight, but there are several obvious restructure candidates that could easily free up significant room. Between converting base salaries into signing bonuses and spreading cap hits out over future years, Carolina could realistically clear $60–80 million in additional space if they wanted to be aggressive. That kind of flexibility means they’re not stuck. They can extend key young pieces, add help along the offensive line, upgrade the defense, and still be strategic about value signings. Letting Cade Mays test the market makes sense from a leverage standpoint. If he’s willing to come back on a team-friendly deal, great, continuity on the line matters. But if his market price climbs, the Panthers should absolutely explore upgrades. The point is, this front office isn’t boxed in. With cap maneuvering and smart structuring, they have the ability to be active players in free agency rather than sitting on the sidelines like we are used too.
