Does this team have less talented players than the 2010 team?

Meh, that team had some talent, this team is banking on younger talent with DJ, Robby, Burns, Chinn, and Brown.

I feel like this team is better suited for todays NFL

We had 9 ads in 2010...9.

Davis now is 20/20 hindsight because he didn't even really have his coming out till 2012. He was out the entire 2010 season and only played 2 games in 2011 I believe.

Heck I would have put Charles Johnson on that list before TD looking back.

This is easily the least talented roster we have fielded. Here is a nice mental game to play, take our starters on offense and defense and look at the rosters of our divisional rivals. Pick which guys you would rather have versus ours. It gives you a good idea of the talent disparity that exists at the moment.

This is probably the worst roster Carolina has ever fielded as long as I've been a fan going back to 2001ish.

Every group outside of WR, RB, QB, and DT have huge question marks in terms of talent and depth compared to the rest of the NFL, and the QB spot is on a dangerous precipice depending how steady or not Teddy can be.

At the end of the day, the roster is an indictment on Hurney and his inability to manage the roster and the money situation beyond one year to the next. Carolina has essentially shot itself in the foot repeatedly with salary cap struggles in the Hurney eras and compounded it each time by signing old, injury risk veteran talent at a Premium Price when the window to win the Super Bowl was already pass, to chase the title futilely for another year.

This. And then this gets compounded by roughly 5-6 years of not successfully replenishing talent as it got older or left. Even worse, that spanned two GM's and two owners.

I was so sick and tired of every off-season that went by where our roster got older and more expensive.

Not being able to resign Bradberry, and others, is a direct result of that incompetence.

2 gamed in and so far 2010 was much more talented of a roster. We will see what the total picture is at the end of week 17 but all signs point to 2010 being a better roster.

And people wonder why I wanted Grier starting and saving cap. This was the year to tank by starting Grier. Would have been as bad as Clausen without having a decent OL. Easy pickings for the top pick.

Building a great team doesn't happen overnight, it takes time and effort. Same with building the shitty team we have now. It took a lot of time and effort to fug this up so royally.

He’s been terrible. Remember going to the playoffs 4 out of 5 years and in 2017 almost winning in NO with no WRs and Ganope? 3 years later and we aren’t even close to the 2017 team let alone the 2015 team.

I don’t think it’s that bad. We just don’t have developed talent at the right positions.

But Moore, CMC, Burns, Brown, Chinn, Yetur, Moton, Donte, even KK should all be fine players.

We don’t have talent in positions that elevate the rest of the roster like QB, MLB, and CB apparently since Donte isn’t stepping up. 
 

We really need an upgrade at center too.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
