Per Matt Miller, the Carolina Panthers are the most improved team exiting the draft...

I'm really hoping Christensen is a day one starter. LT was a gigantic need and Fiterer / Rule took their sweet time before trying to address it.

If he can't beat out Elflien or Erving then that is a big problem given all the LT prospects we could've gotten R1-R3 

It's not necessarily a big problem.  It could be that Eiflien and/or Erving are better then what you take them for.  I mean it's possible that the Huddle is wrong about them right?

So let's say Christensen doesn't beat them out because those two are playing well in camp....is that a big problem...no.

Guy I used to work with would tell girls he met in a bar that he was the Panthers backup punter.

2 girls in NY approached my friend and me and asked me (based on my jacket) what I position I played on the football team. I replied, "Tight End." The other girl asked my buddy, who did not play football, what position he played.  He said, "Oh, I am am one of the loose ends."

No silly. The Huddle has already scouted all players coming into the draft and interviewed and assessed each FA this past season. The Huddle has this stuff figured out long before the coaching staff did

The fug out of here with that poo . I'm just saying I don't have much faith in oft injured free agent olineman (who have a history of poor performance on previous teams they were on) we've been bringing in for quite a while now . If they actually stay healthy and play lights out of course that's a good thing.

When my fiancee was in college, a guy who claimed to play for the Los Angeles Kings hit on her. She called bullshit because she knew all the players on the team, and he was not one of them.

In 2021, 13 years later, Thomas Fletcher ran a 4.92 at his pro day. He is now 22 years old.  By the way, he benched 225 13 times, which is pretty impressive for a LS.

 


Let me start off by saying I have absolutely no problem with the pick since we had the capital to be able to spend a pick on a LS. A good LS is important. 

But there ain’t a damn thing impressive about repping 225 13 times while weighing 236

In what world is LS considered a starter?  Do we count ST gunners as starters too? 

The same world where a #4 wr and a TE/h back hybrid are starters apparently 🤷‍♂️

    • Exactly this as well.  Beyond age concerns--by the time they find out if they have something in Penix, they'll need to work on a new contract not long after.  The newer league winning QBs have gotten extensions by year 3 (ie. Burrow).  So, if Penix somehow lights it up year 3, he could turn around fairly quickly, probably by year 4, and ask for an extension.  ATL has really no buffer time in easing the bucks off the QB room to build a team around him.  Not to mention, they'll be needing to make decisions on Terrell, London, Pitts, Bijan, a lot of high end investments BEFORE seeing Penix through, and that's IF he works out.   Lindstrom's contract is backloaded too and they can't cut Matthews until after 2026.   Just a terrible use of resources as it relates to timing & salary allocation, no matter how you look at it.   You're in win now, so get a talent to win now.  
    • it's  already going to be painful enough watching Caleb Williams throw TD passes to DJ Moore on a regular basis week in & week out   & naturally not sit there & reflect back & say to yourself woulda should coulda had that instead of Bryce Young especially if Bryce never looks remotely similar to a #1 pick   
    • Agreed.  I would expect most realistic fans to tamper their expectations.  There is a scenario where we simply over drafted him at 1, but he still has a solid career and can become a franchise QB.  That is what I am curious to find out.  Does he have what it takes to become the guy.  If he can somehow do any of the stuff you stated in year two then fantastic, but that's not where my head is at judging by his rookie play and the state of the franchise.
