The Timing of our Rebuild is Ideal

So, let's see... we need a good HC, OC and DC, plus positional coaches, trainers and medical staff. 

We need a QB, desperately.

We need a WR1/2.

We need a TE.

Oh, and now we need to replace a RB who made up 75% of our offensive yardage. That'll be easy. (And our back-ups are barely back-up quality... no one waiting in the wings).

We need a new team owner.

And for fug sake, let's get a new GM because this guy is a certified sucker who can't judge talent. Oh and he thought Robbie Anderson was worth millions upon millions of dollars.

Yeah, the rebuild. I'm so frikkin' expecting this to work.

I mean I’m just saying the timing is good, not that we’ll be able to perfectly execute it. This upcoming HC-QB combo is critical.

timing was actually ideal to start the rebuild going into 2020.  I mean, if you look around the NFCS.  We in theory should just now be approaching the time to start having put something together.   As the NFCS turns weak.

This is such an important draft that I don’t like this sentiment. After two really mediocre drafts, you are excited to see what Fitterer can do? Do we really think he just took the picks from Rhule and just called them in?

I hope we hire the right coach and find that there’s a better GM we can trust.

If we 2021 this draft, we are pretty much shot for talent for a while. That scares me. I don’t trust any of the current staff at all. We’ll see how it goes. At least the draft is interesting now and not going to be another 2022 draft missing multiple picks. We can just imagine CMC is hurt again.

Oh I never said excited. I am just glad to see how it works out because we should know if that is an area of concern or not. If it looks very similar to previous drafts, we know he also needs to be booted.

If Fitt can at least Hurney us into a great QB prospect, that is basically all we need. The rest is just icing.

    • 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.
    • 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.
