He was a top 10 pick in the 2020 draft. He wasn’t close to a top 10 CB. His PFF grades last year and this year were bad. I have some faith that we can turn him around as well but he’ll have some growing pains because he hasn’t been a good established NFL corner yet.

I was talking about draft pick not grade...top 10 draft picks from the year prior doesn't get traded for a 3rd & Dan (especially at corner)...This will prove to be a steal if he can stay healthy both physically & emotionally.

Not sure what to think of this.  I suppose we can afford to lose Arnold if another one of our 5 TE's can take his production, which isn't much.  Losing a 3rd though, I feel like we won't have much of a draft this year.  I guess we're pretty much guaranteed to be trading down our first this year.

I don't know enough about the CB to say if it's worth it or not.

Dont think of it like that, this of it that we just drafted CJ henderson with a 3rd round draft pick.  Dude is a top 10 talent and has shown dominating flashes, and hes on his rookie contract with a 5th year option, so we have him for 4 years.  This is a great move, next year, this Backfield will be utterly suffocating.

This is a great trade. He may not even start... but this gives us much needed depth and great potential at the position. He has speed and size. Needs to be coached up. I dont think this necessarily means that Donte is gone. But it gives us options going into the offseason. 

Dan Arnold wasnt bad, but I think we like what we have in Tommy Tremble and Ian Thomas. This lets us get Robbie the touches he needs. Shi Smith is coming off of injury and we're getting solid contributions from guys like Brandon Zylstra. It was the best piece to move. 

I know that we're worried about the Draft... but if this team continues to improve, then we're a year a two away from consistent contention. We've got money to attract the help we need and draft O-line in 2022.

      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.
