I get it man, I really do.  It makes me nervous too.  However, evaluate Pickett yourself.  I want to hate him, but he's actually a pretty decent prospect.

I don't see him changing the trajectory of the team in a way that building a good OL will. 

Pickett was good, but nothing about him screamed world beater, must draft prospect.

His name was Justin Herbert

One good think you can say about out meatballs. He could evaluate the fug out of the top 15 or so players in any given draft. The man nailed every top 15 pick he ever made. If that was his only job he'd be in the ring of honor

The problem with meatballs is that we were constantly picking top 15 with him as GM due to the other 6 draft picks (if we were lucky to have them all) and the terrible FA signings.

At least now, you'll never again have to worry about picking 7th-15th, because the only time the Panthers will ever have a first-round pick outside the top 6 is if they acquire one in a trade.

You're wrong.  When you look at the different combinations, the common denominator for success is the QB.

If you have a bad QB, it doesn't matter at all how good your line is.  Hello New Orleans Saints.

If you have a good QB and a bad line, it comes down to coaching and scheme.  Hello Cincinnati Bengals.

For clarity, I'm not implying either of those scenarios fit the Panthers.  I'm also not implying that a good OLine is irrelevant.  But when you talk about truly changing the trajectory of a team, only a good QB can do that with any regularity.

This is why it just baffles the mind why we seem to be completely opposed to the idea of taking a swing at one.  Yes, 100%, we're going to miss.  QB's even in the first round are 50/50 chances.  But you aren't winning the lottery unless you buy a ticket, and we seem completely unwilling to do so.

Itll be we listened to the fans. By the way justin fields is a bust. You take tackle.

He very well could be, too early. I'm 100% with you about the Slater pick. It was the only great pick we could have made. Horn should be good but it's CB, tons of those around.

      I'm convinced Harden wants to do nothing but put up pretty shots and try to draw fouls and then do nothing on defense lol. Brunson went off though

      what does Bryce's 2026 season need to look like for you to be oaky with extending him?

      Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens.

      Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.
