Parsons is probably a lock for DROY. One, he plays LB. Those guys usually transition well early. Two, he plays for the Cowboys and will have the media cradling his sack from day one. Three, he's a helluva talent.

CB >>>> LB in terms of positional value, so I'm happy with our pick. But if I was making a bet on DROY, I'd bet Parsons.

The Panthers would need something like  10+ wins and Jaycee would have to have 6+ picks to get DROY.

It really helps to be part of an elite unit.  I think his post is dream scenario.

The potential is there.

I really do feel like our defense is going to be a problem for opposing teams regardless of how Darnold/the offense does. I’m absolutely cool with our trademark being an aggressive fast and attacking defense. Opposing offenses will know and feel when they play the Panthers this year.

  One guy who has a good situation is J. Philips. An outside LB/rush end on a good, 3-4 D, will give him many opportunities to rack up sacks which is mainly what awards will be given by. 
 

   The LB Davis in WAS is in a similar position as Parsons. With a much better DL in front of him. Davis may transition faster simply from his line makes it easier. I’d still take Parsons long term.

Remember Darnold will also have some effect on the defense if he’s turning the ball over consistently. Gotta give the D a breather.

that said this defense has tons of potential and is majorly talented. We’re just still young. I’m expecting a jump this year with next year or the year after being a top 5 unit. If they do that this year we are gonna win a bunch of games.

The most picks Same ever had was 15, and that was his rookie year.  His INT numbers have gone down every season.  I dont get this narrative that hes some huge, Jameis Winston type turnover machine.  He had 11 INTs last year, and 13 the year before.  I think he will lower that to around 10 this season.

LOL nobody is saying hes not going to throw ANY INTs....and WTF kinda fan are you where your first reaction to your teams QB throwing an interception is to jump on the internet and say "Told you so"?

Get a grip, dude.

    • It's not only about the draft spots, the scheduling is a huge factor. We already have a tough 2026 schedule by playing the North divisions, that's possibly 7 playoff contenders there and a few true SB contenders between the Lions, Packers, Vikings, Bears, Ravens, Bengals, and Steelers (Browns will still suck lol), while also pulling the AFC West for the 17th game. Let's just say for the sake of argument we are going to be true contenders in 2026 in both scenarios Would you rather go 9-8 and to make the playoffs as the last WC or worst division winner, lose in the first round and then have to add likely the Eagles/Commanders, 49ers/Rams, and Chiefs/Chargers to an already tough schedule because we have a 1st/2nd round finish this year, while picking 19th in the draft (where the worst playoff team picks) or Or lose an extra game to finish 8-9, while ending up in 3rd (obviously need Falcons/Bucs to get a WC spot) and miss the playoffs, but then get to add likely the Cowboys/Giants, Seahawks/Cardinals, Broncos/Raiders to the schedule while picking 13th in the draft (the highest an 8-9 team picked this year). I can understand why some people would just want to go to the playoffs again, and I can't fault that thinking.  But I'm always a bigger picture person and looking at what is best for the future of the franchise and winning a SB, not my immediate feelings that game/season.   So I'm taking those 3 SIGNIFICANTLY easier games and the 6 better draft spots. If we're a true contender in 2026, those 3 games based on divisional finish could very well be the difference of a 1 vs whatever seed.  Right now the top teams in the NFC are the teams who play in places you don't want to have road playoff games at... GB, Detroit, Philly are some of the toughest stadiums to play in, especially if cold weather games for the outdoors ones.  Give me the few extra easier games to hopefully make the difference in getting home field advantage. Making the playoffs to just lose in the first round isn't worth the first scenario to me when the alternative is losing maybe one or two more games while looking better while doing so.  I can stomach those extra losses in a much improved season when it's for the betterment of our future.  
    • We also watched Cam take Carolina to the SB but how much did his career change when he went to the Pats? See how that works? You create a post just to rag on player on another team just because you hate. You love to do this stuff. I've seen it for a few years. You are one of the main problems on this site. Not just y0u but you're definitely one of them. This topic should be in the nfl general chat. As a mod I would think you would understand that but no. The mods need mods around here.  This is for Panther's material. Can a real mod move this thread to it's proper place please?
