How many freaking TEs are on our active roster??? Having 4 of them, you would think that at least one of them would be average...

We play musical chairs with them it's hard t'say if they're building any consistency. Both Steph and Tommy have flashed the last two weeks though so here's hoping. They're both in their 3rd and 2nd years respectively.

We need a TE

Yeah. We should've made that trade for Hock, could've probably given up a little bit less than the Vikes did so they could move him out of division. A legit TE is a great safety blanket and weapon for a young QB. Everything we do this offseason needs to be setting up for a rookie QB (Young or Stroud ideally) to have success. Coaching, FA, rest of the draft, etc.

 

OL is pretty well set but I'd like to add some more legitimate depth there. DJ is a good start at WR, we'll see how TMJ does the rest of the year but ideally we upgrade on him at WR2 and TE significantly this offseason. Also, I'd like to see us take a shot on a mid round RB to pair with Foreman, especially one who can catch the ball. Chuba was fine a few weeks ago but he's really not that explosive and very mistake prone. Foreman has been great since we traded CMC but I'm not sold on him as our mid/long term starter at HB.

Chuba had a higher average than Foreman in that same game, and that's with Foreman even breaking one. He's certainly more explosive, and has the speed to boot.

I'm trying to find that graphic they displayed on the screen during the game. 

I just remember seeing Derrick Henry as #1, Cmc as #2, Donte and Chubba also listed among the qualifying college running backs. I just cant recall the title they were talking about. 

As for Chubba... he is the more explosive option. Foreman is who you bring in after the defense is gassed. He's a bruiser that's sneaky fast. Chubba is the speedy - can run one in if he hits the hole type. If he has an initial hole to run through, he's actually pretty dangerous. He hasn't had that enough here to show that ability since we drafted him. The last TD he scored comes to mind.

Chubba behind this line is a different player. Or at the least "should" be. Foreman is who he was last year, Rhule just didn't have the smarts to use him. I thought at the very least he'd b used near the goal line and in short yardage situations... nope.

I don't even know where to begin...this is the NFL and average means sucks.  You would be correct, our TEs suck.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By frankw · Posted

      I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
