Carolina set themselves up pretty good on both sides of the ball in 2011 picking Cam Newton and then Luke in 2012.  That leadership is needed on both sides not just the offense.  Personally, Shaq will never be the answer to command the defense.  Luke was great at adjusting coverages.  Carolina has a very good opportunity to find a new captain in this years draft in Micah Parsons and imo would be the BPA at #8.

What is with this fanbases obsession with devalued positions like linebacker and running back?

Over the years, those positions have been "successful" picks for us. All those 1st rounders have yielded a lot of very good players for us... at low value positions. What people can't understand is that there's an opportunity cost there. Every premium pick spent on a low value position could've been spent at a higher value position. I'd take a good LT over a great RB. A good DE over a great off the ball LB.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By NAS · Posted

      I find it funny those who continue to hate on Bryce based on his rookie year when he had zero weapons or offensive line have a problem with those of us projecting his career from the 8-9 games where he played like a top 10 QB and made more big time throws during that period than any other QB.  The stats may bot have been there in terms of yards or TD passes but that’s coming as the roster improves. For those who think physical traits can overcome roster deficiencies we all witnessed how Mahomes looked under pressure that Bryce faced for most of his rookie year, we saw what happened with Stroud in similar circumstances.  None of us were creating posts proclaiming Bryce as the next Brady but we can’t just sit idly while thread after thread is created continuing with the  anti Bryce tropes  instead of supporting him and just letting him continue to develop.

      To me Bryce's ceiling is his backup, Andy Dalton, in his prime.  Sure, he may get us some winning seasons and may even get us to the playoffs on occasion, but with an early exit.  To me he doesn't have what it takes to be elite and it takes an elite QB to consistently get deep into the playoffs.  He's not Jackson, he's not Mahomes and he's not even Allen.  In an organization like Philly, he possibly could have what it takes to make a deep run, but let's face it...Philly is well oiled machine and and we are a GMC Grimlin.

      If he was he would still be in the league.... Cam never learned to play QB without relying on his athletism and rocket arm.
