The TEs are who I thought they would be.

The problem is Rhule/Fitt and their attempt to force a square peg into a round hole with Thomas.

This team would have Hunter Henry, Dan Arnold, and Jelani Woods at TE right now (Also, Andrew Booth CB and Desmond Ridder) if I got my way in the draft. Instead, we got Vernon Butler, CJ Henderson, Tommy Tremble and Sam Darnold while wasting space and time with Thomas and Sullivan.

The moves for this team have been disappointing.

Not the root cause but our TE room is not good. Tremble is a fullback playing TE. Ricci  is a decent blocker that gets open because nobody covers him, and Ian Thomas is well below average. 

This franchise has usually always done well in the TE group. Walls, Mangum, Olsen, Dickson. 

I would rather have King, Rosario, or Barnidge than these guys.

Don’t mention Kris Mangums name with these clowns

Couldn't really say much about blocking but all I remember about Mangum was him bobbling the few touchdowns he caught. Then again, Henning was pretty much the anti-McAdoo and kept forgetting that tight ends were legally allowed to catch a ball.

I looked real hard...there must be a typo because Ian Thomas is not listed as a top 32 TE.  Wait, there are 32 teams but the Panthers don't have a player listed?  That can't be correct.  Pfffft...lol, I've been saying our TE room is a joke.  Here is 11-32, no need to do the top 10 because we know Thomas isn't there.  Some teams, like the Browns, have TWO TEs that made the list.  OUCH!

Panthers TEs absent in rankings

FYI, I was willing to draft Goedert, Andrews, Gesicki or Hurst that 2018 draft.  Beating the damn drum for Goedert, but any of them I was willing to take.  Now look at these dudes: Andrews #2, Goedert #7, Gesicki #10 and Hurst #22.  I had them ranked that draft: Goedert#1, Andrews#2, Hurst#3 and Gesicki#4.

      Veteran CB trying out for Panthers

      By frankw · Posted

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
