yeah i imagine we'll manufacture a couple more before the day is done

It's really nice having confidence in your GM being able to handle business efficiently and always putting you in a better position.

Wasn't sure I'd ever get to experience that here.

Endlessly trading back only makes sense when you have very little talent to work with and we're last that point now. We have tons of depth on this roster in the secondary. We have lots of dline depth. We have some young oline depth pieces that may pan out, including Michael Jordan. We have a great young WR core and a rookie RB and TE that are getting playtime. 

Once you build enough talent for the pipeline you start to shift to win now which is what we've done. You can give up the Dan Arnolds  because you hit on someone like Tremble. What's really impressive to me though is how well we've done with some of these project players. 

Robby Anderdons value went way up once we started playing with us. 8 million last year was a steal for the player we got.

Darnold, who looks like a franchise QB so far, for what we got him for was insane value. Most people doubted the trade but it's looking great now. 

Reddick is here for 6 million dollars on a prove it deal. Arizona misused him for years and our organization knew how to unleash him.

Now CJ is here and we gave up a very important pick for him. The front office has been nailing these types of picks and I'm super excited to see what he can become as a panther.

I'm 100 percent ok with this. because we got quality playmakers 

Isnt that the point, use draft to find quality players?? If Sam and CJ were in the 2021 or 2022 draft, both would be still be 1st rounders in my book. No question I would trade a future 2nd for current 2021 assassin Sam. 3rd+backup possession WR for CJ&5th(low cause jax sucks), fug yea I do that allllllllllllll day. Plus I get them right now, not waiting til 2022?? gimmmie that!!

Instead of saying we "lost our 2nd and third round pick", its better to say "we got sam darnold with our second and we got cj Henderson for our third".  Both are still on rookie contracts, and both have pro bowl ceilings if they figure it out, not getting many of those in the second or 3rd rounds.

Which is good in the short term, the issues is we’re gonna have a lot of big contracts come up at the same time over the next few years when all these young guys come due. If we do well this year that be the gauge of how good fitts actually is.

2018 top 3 pick for a 2nd and 2020 top 10 pick for a third.

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

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
