haha right

I don’t dislike Smith, but I am always a little wary of drafting guys from complete loser programs. 

Did you feel the same way about Deebo? Much like him Shi was expected to carry the entire passing game on his back because the QB play was just so god awful. 

 

I've been around this board for 10+ years. I've always been pretty realistic. Shi and Jaycee were the only players from last years team I would've drafted.

Mel and the others are raving about the Panthers' draft, even saying it may be the best. They just talked about the Panthers for the last 5-6 minutes straight! I don't think I have ever seen that happen. I feel like I am in the Twilight Zone.

I’ll be honest and say I haven’t been following the draft that long in as much detail as now. Didn’t join here until 2016 and was way more of a FF draft follower before then, i.e. cared way more about the top skill positions and where they went than OL, DL, late round picks etc.

Things I got right over the last 20 years:

Seifert being a joke, Weinke a bust, I believed in Luke, I knew Delhomme was done 2 years before they let him go, and I knew Benjamin would be a bust, same about Butler.

However I was wrong about:

I really thought Moore was going to be the guy in 2010, I didn’t like the Stewart pick in 08, thought Fox should have stayed 1 more year, thought Jake was gonna be the same as Peete in 03 and us draft a QB in 04.

Wow, ESPN getting all excited about us. Kiper and McShay both said Darnold would go 2 this year.

I saw that and this is the best draft I ever remember us having. We’re picking guys on day 3 who have a shot at starting.

Absolutely I did. Hats off to Deebo, one of the few to climb out of that dumpster fire and play like a pro’s pro. Even with a supremely talented guy like Clowney from that program, you see a total loser with a bad attitude who only plays when he feels like it. I hope we see Deebo-like from Horn and Smith, but I am hesitant to be optimistic.

Nice little segment on Carolina. If you treat darnold like a pick it improves the draft grade quite a bit. 

Yea I was saying literally all thread in the thread on day 1 that Darnold would be the #2 in this very draft, and it wasn't from Mel or McShay

      Veteran CB trying out for Panthers

      By frankw · Posted

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

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

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
