I totally agree with what the plan was... And They did a good job of fixing that problem..

The Oline is going to take time but when Rhule got here the Defense was clearly the bigger need.. Luke gone, Secondary and Dline needed to be rebuilt... We're still in year 2 of this rebuild.. I don't see how ppl don't see this..

I have no issues with a rebuild, it’s how they went about the rebuild. Trading 3 draft picks for one of the worst QBs  in the NFL. Bypassing on a potential starting LT for next 10 years in round 1. Trading down in 2nd for a number 3 WR. Trading another high pick for a CB who has done nothing to date. Hard to rebuild when you have 1 pick in the first 3 rounds next year.

I'm even cool with that.. The effort to try and get better even thoe it didn't work is better then being stagnant.. Imo

The compensation isn't going to kill us anyway and way better then 2 or 3 1st round pick and it doesn't work..

I don't care who the fug they sign as QB. This team is going NOWHERE with the Oline they put on the field season after season. This year, next year, or five years from now. 

Putting the horse before the cart for how many seasons now? They still can't understand that the front five on the Oline is what oils the engine. Don't know what the fug it will take to get that message across.

They persist in ignoring the most important cog on any offense besides the QB.

OK....AND?  So you go out and make the move that is available RIGHT NOW, which is getting one of the top 5 QBs in the game, who is only 25 years old.  Then you take your considerable salary cap space moving forward and you build him an o-line.  Hell, the Rams will not have a first round pick for 10 damn years, and they seem to be doing just fine building a successful team around their franchise QB.  

Are you guys related?

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
