I would have liked to address Edge sooner but the value wasn't there.  I am a proponent of continually building the O-line.   Most importantly Stroud fell to our lap without trading up. 

Tillman would be a steal that late. He was Tennessee’s 1 before he got injured. Who is Avila going to replace?

Top 4 QB's were gone, it was a no brainer to grab Carter. Finished the Dline with Ika. Carter, Ika, Brown would be a very formidable Dline for a 3-4 defense. Jones has the skills needed to be very good in zone coverage and adequate in man. Mayer and Bigsby are potential studs on offense. Wicks is very talented if this really good coaching staff can get it out of him. Haener is probably cheaper depth, but I also like his potential.

here is an excellent trade down draft

I think that would be the ultimate hatchet-burying move for this board.  We get a QB, didn't have to move up, actually moved back to get more picks.  I'd be ok with AR if we moved back, just not at #9.  We need more picks this year and we may have a QB more polished sitting there next year within striking distance to move up.  Drafting AR, as completely as raw as he, does not preclude us drafting another next year if a franchise QB can be had.

totally agree on your point about not precluding us from taking a QB next year

No matter who we draft this year, if we're bad enough to be in the top 3 next year I'm taking Maye or Williams and figuring the rest out later

      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.

      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.
