You would see less groaning about what if scenarios with that pick if mgmt hadn't tripled down at CB while the oline was left to rot. Now we have very limited draft resources next year to top it off. Not difficult to see why this will remain a source of contentious debate.

Ya know. I’m old enough to remember people saying the same thing about Tom Brady and Kurt Warner. 
 

Time will tell.

 

Yeah, tom brady is an iconic game manager. That's the reason belichick chose mac jones over fields, mac jones much like Tom Brady is very much game manager and that's what's needed for belichick's system.

I still like to think Sewell was our #1 target and the Lions ruined it, so the Panthers are going to Panther and take a CB instead

Definitely but that's what worries me. Our pro scouting staff saw no talent outside of the top LT in his class any armchair GM would have brought to Carolina.

yeah. and that could have been any qb. tom brady just happen to be on the patriots.

Yeah, then he went to the Bucs and “game managed” another Super Bowl. In fact this “game manger” is leading the league in passing yards and TDs. Stop with that nonsense…

So glad the panthers picked CB at 8 when that position is easier to retain (Djax) or obtain (Henderson/Gilmore) or find UDFA (Taylor) and we passed up Parsons, Fields, Slater.    So fuging stupid to pass on positions we needed and that are harder to obtain.  Horn is great but just the last 4 months showed us how it’s easier to get a DB than it would to get QB, LT, or a stud linebacker. 

So glad the panthers picked G at 182 in the 2000 draft.  Jeno Jones is ok, but a guard is so easy to find or retain.  We should have picked Tom Brady, who went at 199.  Typical panthers.

Get the fug out of here with this retarded argument.    Godalmighty what a fuging stupid take this is.   

 

yeah. plug in any other solid qb and he would have a super bowl too. tom brady doesn't carry teams, he doesn't have the arm or athleticism to do that. mac jones is on his way because of the team, not mac jones.

I am fairly certain you might be the only person on the planet who feels this way.

Brady is one of the best of all time because he makes quick and smart decisions and accurate throws under pressure, especially when the game is on the line.  This is an ability that is far, far more important than athleticism in a qb.  Regarding arm strength, its dropped off over the years, but at one time, he certainly had good downfield strength and accuracy.

Plus his awareness in the pocket and the way he moves in it is legendary.  Arguably the best of all time

      Joe Person: Panthers will let Cade Mays test the free agent market

      By PanthersNCSU · Posted

      If Mays has a market, which it seems he will, he's gone.  I think we bring back Nijman for too much money to be cautious at LT, Corbett comes back cheap since he's already said he wants to live in CLT, and Christensen eventually gets re-signed with the hopes he can be depth at some point.  Draft an OT, draft a C. The OL might be rough for stretches next year, but time to get some youth there to prepare for Bryce in 2027 or the next QB. I still think we compete for the division in 2026 and can go back to the playoffs unlike the oddsmakers in Vegas, but the *real* year is 2027 IMO. Either Bryce has proven it and he's the QB looking at his 2nd contract, or we have the ready-made team for the next rookie QB or Vet we trade for.

      Joe Person: Panthers will let Cade Mays test the free agent market

      By Leeroy Jenkins Ph.D. · Posted

      The Panthers are going to have a lot more flexibility in free agency than it looks like at first glance. On paper, the cap space might seem tight, but there are several obvious restructure candidates that could easily free up significant room. Between converting base salaries into signing bonuses and spreading cap hits out over future years, Carolina could realistically clear $60–80 million in additional space if they wanted to be aggressive. That kind of flexibility means they’re not stuck. They can extend key young pieces, add help along the offensive line, upgrade the defense, and still be strategic about value signings. Letting Cade Mays test the market makes sense from a leverage standpoint. If he’s willing to come back on a team-friendly deal, great, continuity on the line matters. But if his market price climbs, the Panthers should absolutely explore upgrades. The point is, this front office isn’t boxed in. With cap maneuvering and smart structuring, they have the ability to be active players in free agency rather than sitting on the sidelines like we are used too.
