we'll probably be looking at LBs an DTs....no pass rushers worth anything will be let go because they're too valuable.  Rhule said he wanted a LT, QB and pass rusher, and we got the first 2 in the draft.

This. Anything the will help then run D. We need help pretty equally at DT and ILB so we'll probably look at those.

Need for Panthers to cut Derrick Brown. Send a message to the team. 

It will also send a message that the FO is stupider than we think.  Cut a Starting DT on a rookie salary because he isn’t progressing like we think he should. Backfill him with someone that plays about the same but costs more.

I was half way joking around when I said that. I know we can’t cut him now but this is a huge year for him. Did they pick up his option yet?

Mostly you're correct.  However some teams draft replacement player (1st rounders) and would be looking to play them and save money with the rookies.  And if I am correct, June 1st cuts gives them the opportunity to spread the money out over a couple of years. (100% if that is correct)

I also just read where Quinn wants out of Chicago.

He's 32 and had a career year last year with 18.5 sack.  I am sure part of his success was because he was opposite K. Mack who is now in SD.

He's under contract until 2024. 

Report: Bears Pro Bowl DE Robert Quinn 'wants out of Chicago' (msn.com)

 

think he's from Charleston...he might want to come here.

Not sure about the option.  Apologies I took the post as literal.  

You can't pick up a player's 5th year option in their 3rd year. Dude's trolling.

      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.
