TE this offseason

While ill argue that MLB is our biggest weakness and needs to be addressed this offseason.  

But TE needs to be addressed this offseason.  There are 2 STUDS in this upcoming draft that ill spare for another time closer to the draft.

 

But watching around the league then seeing us, its obvious.

 

Our redzone struggles arent because lack of CMC, lack of a Hammer RB like Tolbert, or a bull dozing QB like Cam.

 

We just dont have that giant reliable mismatch target.

 

Watching Kmet for the Bears snag that catch in the middle of the endzone over multiple defenders made me a little Jealous.

 

And even moving onto tonight.  The Chiefs, a big reason for their success, Kelce, has just been a complete mismatch with 2 redzone TDs in the 1st half. 

 

 

Now, dont get me wrong.  I hope Ian Thomas can find something and turn it around, but im jist not seeing it happen.  He is looking more and more of solid backup TE like a Ed Dickson.

If we go TE or MLB in round one I'll be super excited

Agreed

But not trying this into a early draft discussion.  But unless your going to get that top MLB.  The next guy wont be that much better than what youll be seeing in rd 2.  While you could get a game changer at TE where we will be drafting.

And again, how we go and address free agency could change all that too.

Moses i grasped a vibe, could fall back as far as 14.

The closer we are to 10 I’d like to go for Pitts and really set our offense up for long term success with Teddy, DJ, CMC, Robbie, Curtis and Pitts. We would have answers for everything you could do defensively in the red zone. The further back we are in the first the more I worry the talent at TE and LB drops off.

I want the offensive line solidified before anything else.

Mind you, I never get what I want, so...

To be honest, our OL has besn solid overall outside of the Bears game (who's been one if not the best front 7 in football this year)

 

Also to note, a bunch of of highly targeted draft/price OL doesnt mean success.  The Atlanta Falcons OL we faced last week has 5 former 1st rd picks on it.

If we want to be a playoff level team, we have to be able to handle defensive attacks like the Bears bring.

Outside of Moton, they're all pretty easily replaced, especially Paradis.

Okung is good, but for how long? We need a left tackle of the future there.

      Xavier Legette for Cole Kmet Straight Up.

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
