Our only player in our hall of honor only played three seasons for us, and was about washed up when we got him, plus was slow and short. Our first franchise quarterback quit on us during the season. Our best play maker for most of the last 6 years is a wide receiver who is shorter than almost every corner back in the league, and probably would have never been a starting wide out with any other team in the league. Plus he personally lost a few games for us with his temper. We forced a defensive end who did all he could to get away from this team and move on, to stay, and hoped he would do what he did last season for us this season. He has only stepped up now cause of the player comments, and media attention, and doesn't want his actions to hurt his ability to sign with whatever team he wants to go to. Am I the only one who sees how bad this team has been managed? It is a joke from the top down!

Their loss.

Oh yeah, Carolina from an organizational standpoint is far from a "joke". Richardson is one of the most well-regarded owners in the league and John Fox is widely respected (outside of the fans of course). This thread is a perfect reflection of our new-ish fanbase. You don't know how truly awful a "bad" front office can be. See the Bills, Lions, Browns, Rams, Jaguars, Saints up until 2006, and Redskins for a start.

Please stop posting, this guy is obviously either a Saints or Falcons fan. Man do I feel bad for you though, you seriously need to get a life. But don't worry, your day will come when you suck too, or should I say, AGAIN!

drafting Julius Peppers

Thomas Davis

You know, it's easy to only point to the bad things...

As far as Steve Smith being too small to make it as a receiver on other teams. Well, other teams would have found out soon enough just how GREAT Smith was; minus his size issue. Wes Welker (5-9), DeSean Jackson (5-10), etc. Don't tell me teams don't give chances to small receivers.

I do agree with you that we sort of forced Peppers into a situation he doesn't want. $16 million or $20 million, when somebody says, "I don't want to be here.." you need to respect that. Like any of us, we only live once and Julius himself, doesn't want to spend his entire life in North Carolina. He deserves that much. Too bad we couldn't get a draft pick for him, but as Fox would say, "it is what it is".

I also agree that giving Sam Mills a statue is a bit much. I understand the heart and soul he showed but I think it's a little extreme.

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?

      LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.

      After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
