I honestly think the current coaching staff, who I consider better strategists than Rivera's, has handled Samuel worse. You have Christian McCaffery, a QB you don't want throwing more than 20 yards downfield, and you can't figure out how to use the only 1000/1000 player in Ohio State's history? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

 

??? Samuel had over 1,000 YFS last year despite 3 other players on the team also having 1,000 YFS.  Something that has rarely happened in the history of the NFL (4 players on same team having over 1000 YFS).  How can you suggest he wasn't used well last year?

2021 season has the potential to be really rough. 
Teams now have tape on the defense and Teddy, if he is still here. 
We may have another top 10 pick. 

There is no maybe we will probably be top 5 unless we decide to go with we need a win in our last game to create more winning culture. Then we fall to 11th because it made the team feel better, yay!

It feels like we are now doing what we should of done last year. Panthers are terrible at rebuilding, or Marty thought if we got to the playoffs he would still be here. Either way Bridgewater's contract is holding this team back almost as much as he holds back the team in the field. 
We would have, what, 60+ million if we had of went with Allen or Grier and probably a top 3 pick. 
It is hard to be a Panthers fan.

Took an act of God. Before CMC went down Samuel's RB abilities were an afterthought. An end-around play in the backfield every once in a blue to be cute. 

I just think it's super disappointing and kind of strange that we have this Madden playing college hotshot OC who can't figure out how to scheme two gadget players together. Christian and Curtis could be a RB/WR tandem like the league's never seen if they put some thought into it.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
