The good news: The Panthers have drafted in the top 10, 5 times in this century

Out of those 5 times we drafted in the top 10, 4 are Hall of Famers, and the other one is the best tackle in franchise history

8 - Christian McCaffrey
9 - Luke Kuechly
1 - Cam Newton
8 - Jordan Gross
2 - Julius Peppers

80% chance of a Hall of Famer

A lot to look forward to in the coming months

Yep and then Marty will pick players with cancer and other crippling deficiencies rounds 2-7 and the star first rounder will be driven to dust by the staff because we have no good players

Thing is he gets these guys because he likes their stories or because they interviewed well. 

Thats what you get when you hire a media guy to do a general managers job.

Yay another HoFer wasting talents on a crappy team going nowhere.

They is unless we can get a GM who can do more than draft well in the first round and a HC who knows how to put his people in winning situations.

Luckily Ron is gone and Marty will be a glorified GM (hopefully). I have a surprising amount of faith that Just the Tepper will hire the right HC. The kind that could have cemented Cam as a first ballot Hall of Famer instead of Shula’ing him.

I already posted a topic on panther draft position.  It’s going to be tough to get into the top 10 and best case scenario is probably 8th with having to have a lot of right.  As of now we are 11th and likely won’t improve anymore this week.

If you miss on a top 10 pick, you absolutely SUCK!  *I'll throw this in for QBs; high bust rate.

Less than 10% of top 10 picks go on to the Hall of Fame

The Panthers are at 80% this century

That's over 10 times the expected frequency you should expect from the top 10.  It's extremely difficult to draft Hall of Famers, anywhere in the draft.

    • Roger all that. Do you think BY avoided any sacks last game? This oline is not what you're touting them to be. They are much better then 2023! Much much much better than 2023. But come on now, you'd expect this expensive oline (most are run blocking specialist) to at least dominate in the run game every game.  And... I keep telling you our WRs and TEs are not that good yet. I mean last Sunday was a prime example. Our receiving targets never make plays like those. Never. And this is from one of the worst teams in the league. Shough could have easily had 3 INTs if not for his receivers making plays on the ball. Our guys just don't do that. XL almost allowed an INT backing up out of bounds instead of coming to the ball. And everyone would have blamed that on BY. That's why he doesn't throw to that dude. I can't recall a game except maybe the second Falcons game - maybe, where I thought our receivers could possibly be better than the other team's. I think TMac and Coker have a lot of potential. But they're aren't consistent. But they're young and WILL improve. I'm confident of that.  I don't agree that BY was drafted to only stand in the pocket. He has always been best off schedule - for better or worse. 
    • Do you think you will get a direct answer?  Icky giving up 5 pressures (playing hurt in his defense) by himself and Bryce only getting sacked once tells you he played well in the pocket.  He extended plays and converted some tough downs.  
    • I've been very apprehensive about potentially firing yet another head coach. But Canales needs to focus on being a head coach first and foremost and begin handing off some responsibilities like playcalling duties and begin overseeing the entire team or we need to assess all possible ideal HC candidates in the offseason.
