Selecting N.C. State’s OT  Ikem Ekwonu at No. 6 was a dream selection.There is no way that i though he would make it to us.

I was afraid we would do some type of dumb trade back to obtain more draft choices and was greatly relieved when that didn't happen.

The Panthers have the making now for a very good OL,something we have not had in a very long time.

It was leaked this morning that the Texans and Jets were taking the two cornerbacks. Once that happened, and Giants publicly wanting Neal and not the other two, the cards aligned for Carolina

If Irving ends up starting at LT this season, I don't think Rhule makes it to the parking lot unscathed. 

I will loose it if Rhule starts that learning every position sh!t with him. Let him learn to play a NFL LT and that only for a season or two dammit.

I swear I’m not trolling, but how long are his arms? I wouldn’t put it past rhule to double down on some garbage like that

You won't like what you see. But now everyone will finally understand it wasn't the OL that was the problem for Darnold. It's between his ears.

They have to at the least get him some decent competition in the QB room and actually play him in preseason before trotting him out there when it matters. Automatic 5th year option and basically no preseason competition last year was the dumbest poo you could possibly think up

I mean, the state of or QB situation is very obvious. Darnold is completely terrible and PJ couldn't make another roster.

No he's advocating for Sam to get the start next season.  He prefers Jimmy G but it's a no go with the B word.

Heads will explode tomorrow when it's seen by folks in here.

You will be busy with the ban hammer.

This was the strangest draft round 1 ever. Seemed like every team got exactly who they wanted even with all the trades. I knew we'd not get any trade offers Fitterer would like because most of the offensive players were still available and the top defensive players were gone. It was a matter of which LT we chose.

I'm excited it was Ickey. I'll bet Campen is happy too. And Bozeman can now concentrate on center. And Corbett can settle in at RG. It's like panning for gold in your favorite little creek and the flakes settle nicely in your pan.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.

      oh now that's what you call Mother Fiuggure fans the ones that always have this fierce protective shield around the team no matter if they win or lose  & to be honest there is nothing really wrong with being a Mother Fiugguer fan they just have a different meaning or sense of what a true fan really is                                                 ☺️
