Yeah, I'm sorry to say this, but if you can't see how vastly improved our line has become this Offseason. I don't think anyone can help you.

This is gonna be hilarious to read later, like your offseason takes in 2021.

Not sure there is someone who is as consistent in being completely inaccurate. 

It really is EXTREMELY funny to watch you do this to yourself.

What's funny is you showing your total lack of knowledge by calling our improved Oline. "A bunch of Jags". Then followed that up with a poll designed to find like minded folks, that totally backfired on you. 

 

Now that right there is funny. I don't care who you are.

Was only 2 options in my mind.  Draft Ickey if he is there or trade down.  Luckily Ickey was there

 

I know a lot of folks were looking for that trade down, but it never really had any footing. Glad Ikey was there, because we were pretty much stuck with 6.

Pickett is Dalton-esque but he was one of basically two guys in this class I could see being actual NFL starters.

The rest are backups or XFL guys.

I can see that. Dalton had a stretch where he was far from just a backup. But he was never good enough to push that team over the hump.  I think Pickett's ceiling is higher than Dalton's but I suck at evaluating talent, especially QBs. lol

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
