Vegas 2020 pre draft predictions (Panthers favored in 1 game in 2020)

While the Panthers problems aren't small, it's hard to tell just how bad they are until the ball gets snapped in 2020. The Panthers were terrible after Ron was let go last year, and while they weren't good with him, I'm not sure they were as bad as they showed without him.

Honestly, seems about right. If it plays out like that, we'll get our franchise QB in the '21 draft. 

And Marty thinks we’ll compete? WTF did we waste $21M a year on Teddy and lose a 3rd comp for Bradberry? Just start Grier and guarantee Lawrence and be done with it and get the rebuild underway. We are favored in 1 game at home against the team who has the 3rd pick in the draft. Sure screams competitive and Teddy is being considered in these odds.

We could have had 4 comp picks (3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th) and saved almost $90M in cap space by dumping Short and not signing Teddy and Anderson for 2020 and 2021. It’ll be fun limping through the next two years wasting 4 comp picks, $90M and coming out of it 11-21 no closer to a franchise QB.

Very little about our approach to this off-season has made sense to me.

It’s awful. Marty’s still on the hot seat and his last two drafts are chock full of reaches because he doesn't know how to draft BPA. Same thing is happening now.

You’d think a team losing Cam, Luke and Olsen would be rebuilding. A team that had the #31 D and gave up the 2nd most sacks? Losing 3 of 4 DL starters, their best CB and a starting S? We went 12-20 the last two years, 1-15 when it counted.

WTF would we blow off getting 4 comp picks and trying to build cap space? Ugh, I could have done a better job just by saying we’re not signing FAs until after comp deadline is over and we’re maximizing cap space for a SB run in 2022 to 2025. Signing CMC is the only move I’ve liked besides letting go of our FAs.

      Brown on BY9 while talking to Chris Long

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.

      Canes vs Canadians Gm 2 Rd 3 7pm

      I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
