I’d say 3-4 seasons at least

 

 this team will need to rebuild their o line

 find a franchise QB

 learn to move on from CMC

 

 THANKFULLY the team has very good young building blocks but realistically we’re no where near being an upper echelon team in the NFL for the foreseeable future

It is hard to believe how short sighted most of this board is. They think we are a player or two away from being a SB contender when nothing is more from the truth. We haven't had back to back top 8 picks because we are ready to contend. Actually we are in a rebuild mode and it will probably take two more years to get where we need to be. We need a LT, C, G, DT, DE, MLB, FS and considerable depth. Most here want a new QB, so I'll throw that in. We have close to 40 million in cap room for next year and a first rounder, but our trades have gutted out 2022 draft. We can do a lot to fix the OL with FA and the draft, but that isn't going to make us a serious contender. We are at least 2 years away.

2023 fix the oline

2024 look for a QB

2025 CMC will be like 40, will need a new RB

2026 probably when we’ll start contending. QB will be in his 3rd year. 

 

I’ve never seen a franchise that has been so successful at wasting All-Pro Players career; Cam, Luke and CMC.

I wouldn't bet on it with the current owner. It looks like we're going to be the next team with an owner that can't keep his hands out of the cookie jar, and perennial losers for it.


If this were true we’d have Justin Fields right now.

I think our defense is fine now. The offense is fuging them over by keeping them on the field constantly.

La Canfora posted something and we are 3rd in yards per game for defense which tells you that the offense is giving short fields which never helps. We have some issues to fix but this defense reminds me of 2019 Tampa…all those same players were there in 2019 that won is 2020 but Jameis didn’t help them out.

Yep. At least 3-4 depending on if they learn from their mistakes.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By Carolina Cajun · Posted

      Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.

      I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
