Fitt is filling our roster with serviceable players so we can trade our entire draft for Watson.

I've heard a couple of people suggest that, and I just can't get on board.

It would be a very Panther thing to choose a draft where the offensive line class is expected to be good and deep to be the one where we trade away all our picks.

I just cannot conceive a scenario where giving up what it will take to get one player works out in our favor.

I hope it's a smoke screen...or a bad dream.

I hope neither see the field. I love the cheap hungry guys in free agency but we wasted money on two injured and really bad players. this looks like amateur hour honestly. who the fug is our pro-personel expert now? 

Current head of pro personnel is still Matt Allen (i.e. Jerry Richardson's grandson).

Luke Kuechly did join the pro personnel department this year.

I wouldn’t want to put him behind that oline and he probably is thinking same. Idk just thinking out loud lol

Well these guys are relatively cheap backup signings nothing more. I mean, they could start if they win at camp but I doubt it. Fitt said we wouldn’t be very active in FA, so far he’s honest.

I'm that dude that waits for things to go on sale and not jump on them as soon as they hit the shelf.  Call it the cheapskate in me.  No doubt we need OL depth and with our history of OL injuries we surely need positional flexibility.  However, these guys (or guys like them) would be available days from now and probably at a discounted rate from what we intend to give them.

      Is Hughes on hat trick watch for the Canes? Could he be first star if they win?

      2026 Team Needs

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      QB: Overhaul the room. Jettison Bryce if possible but if he must remain then use a combination of a FA QB and draft QB to replace Dalton and provide realistic replacement options for Bryce when he continues to fail in 2026. RB: Figure out Brooks and Dowdle's future. If Brooks is not going to be a factor, move on and obtain a roster capable backup RB. Dowdle, retain if he is reasonable to afford, if not, find another Dowdle. TE: Find an upgrade that is also a genuine receiving threat. Sanders can be moved/cut, if necessary. OL: Find a starting caliber C through the draft or FA. Extend Ikey and attempt to minimize the early cap hits. Attempt to retain(depending on price) Mays, Corbett and Nijman. Draft IOL and OT as backups/depth. Versatility is key for lower round picks(BC/Mays caliber). Special Teams: Retain Sam Martin. Extend JJ Jansen if he wants to stay. Draft a legitimate WR/KR/PR guy again. It has been years since we have had an above average combo player like this. EDGE: Retain Wonnum/Gipson depending on price. Cut DJ Jones. Bolster this position group through the draft. We currently only field rotational caliber players. This is not sustainable. Get actual pass rushing ability. DL: Find a real NT. Bolster depth and upgrade across the board.  ILB: Find starting caliber ILB's through draft or free agency. There are no current players on the two deep that cannot be upgraded. This is a MASSIVE roster weakness. S: Let Nick Scott walk or sign him as depth for a cheap, short term deal. Upgrades across the board are needed aside from Moehrig.  CB: Bolster depth and find a long term replacement for Jackson through the draft. Depth at this position is extremely weak.
