Theres not going to be alot available free agent wise and this college class doesn't look amazing for qb's.  Considering Carolinas lack of picks, they may need another rental for 2 years.  I feel a trade is imminent.  What do we think about Garoppalo?  He will almost have to be available.  

 

Mike Kafka  - Offensive Coordinator

Trade down twice to 15+ acquiring 2x 2nd round picks and probably a 3rd/4th. 

Trevor Penning OT - Draft 1st Round

Carson Strong QB - Draft 2nd Round

Rasheed Walker OT - Draft 2nd Round

John Schmitz C - Draft 4th Round

Garoppolo - Trade for a 3rd

This rebuilds the Oline, gives a decent qb room with Garoppolo, Darnold and Strong and an up and coming qb coach to oversee it.

Short answer?  No.

However, the good news is....we are primed for a total rebuild with tons of cap space and a new GM...right when the rest of the division is heading toward major shakeups.

 

 

Oh poo...that's not true...we were primed for a perfect rebuild and the coach, that the owner hired and gave way too much power to, thought we were ready to win now and treated his cap space and future picks that way.

 

Now we must start all over again, since we didn't do it correctly the first time.  Tepper needs to hire someone that truly understands the NFL, and allow them and Fitt to run the show.  He HAS to get away from this team.  He has proven that if there is a decision to be made, he will make the wrong choice.

The fact that we’ll need at a bare minimum 3 starters on the line and depth, as well as a re-designed QB room suggests this will be a multi-year rebuild. If we had the picks, or had the money, it could possibly be fixed sooner, but I’m not expecting it to be significantly better until 2023 or even 2024. 

But by then, the defense would have fell apart.

IF, and that is a big if, we can can basically can the entire offensive coaching staff and bring in a crew who know how to get the best out of players and can scheme around the talent that we have, and if we spend the vast majority of our draft capital on the OL, then I think we can be a decent to good offense. QB is still an area of need but OL has to come first. We have talent on the offense, we just need a good line and coaches who actually know what they're doing.

I don't get drafting a QB in Round 2 if we're also going to be trading for Jimmy G in this scenario.  Use that pick for offensive line help.

It's not going to be easy, that much is for sure.

This offensive needs a QB, LT, LG, C, TE2, OL depth, and an actual scheme that can succeed in today's NFL while stuck with salary cap restrictions as well as no day 2 picks (though, to be fair, CJ Henderson for a third is actually starting to look like a steal).

Is Rhule still here? If so, no.

I'm afraid this is probably correct.

For one, if Rhule is still in charge, I can't see him moving on to a different OC. Remember he said that he "went outside his comfort zone" to hire Joe Brady. Jeff Nixon, on the other hand, is well within his comfort zone so it's difficult to think he'd make a change there.

Matt had his chance to pick OC, now its Fitts turn

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      You bring up a good point on the stability part and i would agree that probably will factor into it. But yes, Tepper does have a strong influence on who stays/goes but I still believe ultimately it'is Morgan, Tilis and Canales who will decide.

      I can always count on yout to put things so delicately lol. I'm still not sold on the fact that Tepper will make them keep him if they don't see him as a long term answer.

      holy poo... this thread inspired me to keep trying to guess passwords to various alts I've created over the years and I finally got in! I pretty much accepted my fate as a lurker for the last several months because I could not remember my password. I didn't realize that new users couldn't join either, that explains things. I have been around for years under several different monikers, through the good and bad. I too always find myself coming back here even with all of the new social media options for Panther fan engagement. It's simply nostalgic.   I do get extremely annoyed with the same 5-10 posters shitting on Bryce and complaining about everything. It's unfortunate that half of them are mods and that nobody new can join because now I pretty much just come on here and see Bryce / Panther slander. There is barely any positivity to be had. We all watch this team and hang on this forum for entertainment purposes only. We have no control or say in anything. I used to be such a crazy ass fan that would argue with strangers about Cam newton on the internet and at games. Now, as a father of 3, a business owner and someone with way gnarlier life problems - I like to watch football and talk about football as an escape. Not to bitch more. I really like the direction of the team and will root anyone in a Panthers jersey. I live down the street from the Rams practice facility, Matthew Stafford is currently coaching his daughters flag football team in the same program I coach my sons. I have two highly ranked Rams staff members sons on my team. The way we beat them and had them on the ropes in the playoffs has me feeling amazing, and you would think we have the next great thing in Bryce with the way they all speak of him. I'm gonna ride that high and be a delusional fan, I hope that huddle can stick around or get fixed and perhaps I will get back to posting more now that I can log in again. I will do my best to not get banned. Keep Pounding!
