Nah. Fitt and Rhule will take Howell or Pickett this year and win just enough games to be out of the sweepstakes as Rhule gets year 4.

Well if that happens we’re not drafting another QB in R1 next year. We’re a shitty organization but we’re not Cardinals level shitty (current year excluded).

Only if we trade up. He's going 1 most likely and we'll probably win 4-6 games and pick somewhere in the 6-9 range. Fug

What has happened to make you think we will be better next year than the past 2? This is a legit, honest question.

We are picking 6th this year with an OL that can't get much worse, a QB that can't get much worse, and one of our best offensive weapons might play more this year.

Also if you reverse our one score games this year (switch the wins to losses and losses to wins) we would have been 9-8 and probably made the playoffs.  You can't reverse them, and maybe we aren't good enough to win close games but it shows how close teams are.

This is college football, the line between winning and losing is a lot smaller than fans realize.

I'm not saying we are going to be a good football team but I would count on us having the #1 pick.

But Brees was considered short and a lot of people thought he needed a really good OL (which he had most of his career) to help his downfield vision. Not sure if we’re the right place for that.

I’m hoping a year from now we have an adequate line. Moton, Brady, our first round pick this year and a free agent.  Cant build Rome in a day but let’s lay some foundation for the empire.

  The schedule will be much harder than the slew of backup, rookies, and just poor QBs from this year. Only Matt Ryan was a decent QB they won against. Wilson, Mills, McCoy, and the most inconsistent QB maybe ever(Winston). Next year is the NFC West and AFC North. Burrow, Jackson, Mayfield,(Steelers), Stafford, Murray, Wilson, Garrapolo(Lance). I wouldn’t count on one score flips to make a team better that has very little resources to accomplish that.

To the people in this thread and elsewhere who think we'll take Howell, Pickett

poo if we do though we actually have someone who has a history if spotting the shitty/good ones so that's about the only hope in that department

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By frankw · Posted

      I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...

      Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
