I think you have to take at least 7-8 OL in the next 3 drafts. Sounds crazy but I mean it. There isn't a single member of our roster on that unit worth keeping other than Moton. Not one. That is a hell of a rebuild.

This is reactionary. We have no idea how Brady or Deonte are long term. Brady did some good things today and had some rough patches. Sam is doing them zero favors also.

Sam is a competent middle of the road guy if most everything around him is solidified. The O-line and Brady’s play calling did him no favors, but a franchise QB has to go out and win games with deficiencies. Seldom in your career will everything be perfect. Sam just isn’t the long term guy here.

This is the same thing that was said about Little and Daley. The fact of that matter is, if you can't make it through this dumpster fire of an OL, you probably aren't going to amount to much. 

Not saying it is impossible but the odds are very low. And, why should we expect anything of Brown? He is a 6th round draft pick. Even making the roster was a win.

Because he comes from Alabama and his issues were weight. He’s down to 330 now. He is talented. Rhule needs to start playing the rookies more to see what we have with them going forward.

TBQH, he isn't that talented. He is a relatively one trick pony as an OL prospect. Brute strength and size with little lateral mobility or finesse. 

He may end up being a good 2nd string OL here but we only look at him with hope because of how poor the rest of the roster is.

This is shades of Daley. Hoping upon all hope our late round draft OL bails us out.

I’m not hoping anything. Just that your blanket statement of everyone needs to be gone except moton is reactionary. Play deonte and Brady see how they do going forward. This defense is championship caliber. If we wanna take advantage of that we can’t wait around for 3 drafts. We need a new qb. Gonna need to make some big moves. Cmc should be on the trading block.

We need to improve 8 of 9 players in that unit. That makes us a potentially great team. Luckily making significant improvements across the board shouldn't be that hard. About 4-5 of the guys that have gotten snaps for us wouldn't see the field for the majority of other NFL franchises. 

I can't say I would trade CMC. You need a high caliber player/pick(s) in return and his trade value is probably not that high. Banged up as he has been, I don't think you dump an elite player for the sake of dumping him. You need to get something of significant value in return. 

 

Also, no panic on the window here. We are insanely young on defense and I am not nearly as worried about our ability to continue to replace players on it as I have been with previous teams.

CMC definitely needs to be on the trade market. Today’s loss definitely sings to the tune of a 9-7 season and if the ability of your QB literally hinges on your oft-injured RB then it’s simply best to part ways sooner than later

No! He is the only reason we have 3 wins.

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      By hepcat · Posted

      Hypothetical offseason question. If the Panthers sat Bryce in 2023 and played Dalton instead, where would the Panthers be going into 2024? One thing is certain, things would be VERY different.  1) Frank Reich doesn’t get fired. Dalton is a veteran and operated Frank’s offense far more effectively in the one game he started than Bryce did. The Panthers likely look a lot more competent early on and Frank doesn’t get fired mid-season. Caveat - It’s also been quietly mentioned in some media outlets that Frank and the staff preferred to draft CJ Stroud and might have tanked the season intentionally to get fired, all speculation. But the vanilla offensive scheme might have been a coincidence due to lack of talent and competence, or perhaps malicious compliance.  2) The Panthers wouldn’t have been the worst team in the NFL. The defense was fairly good in 2023 despite the fact the offense was the worst in the NFL with Young under center. With a veteran starting at QB, the offense would possess the ball for longer periods of time and could have lead to even better performances from the defense.  3) Scott Fitterer doesn’t get fired. A move I think was needed either way, but if the Panthers resembled anything in the way of competency in 2023, Fitterer doesn’t get the axe especially because they hadn’t seen what Bryce can do on the field yet.  4) David Tepper doesn’t throw a drink at a fan. I think we’re all tired of the owner of this franchise embarrassing the fans with his immature behavior but hey, I have to imagine that his rage wouldn’t have been at level 10 if they hadn’t had the disaster of a season they did in 2023. 5) Bryce has a good 2024? Biggest leap I can make in this speculation but I think if Bryce sat in 2024, and the team makes similar moves to build the offense around him, he would come into a much better situation after having a chance to learn on the bench behind a veteran instead of the situation he was thrust into.    We will never know how this would have played out but it is fun to speculate!

      This^ My receivers coming out lack the coaching needed to play in the nfl. Very few schools run an nfl style offense. Most rookies will need a lot of coaching even more than before to learn a nfl system. It's the nature of the game in the last half decade or more. I've heard that mentioned by coaches on more than one occasion in past several years. That's why receivers coaches are more important than ever before.
