The letdown is disappointing but it's good for the future

Yeah, it sucks. But this has to happen. We can't afford to give away 10+ draft spots to win this trash division and get blasted at home in the wildcard round. Love Wilks, but I don't think he's the answer long-term. Darnold seems like a great dude and he can look great at times but any reasonable person realizes he's not the long-term answer.

This organization needs a total reset. Lucking into winning an all-time putrid division would've been a massive setback for the future. It's about the future. There's a lot to work with on the roster. We need a QB, another pass rusher, CB depth, and another WR opposite Moore. That's a lot better than this time last year when it looked like we needed a whole damn football organization. 

Agree 100%

Probably the smartest thing to pass this board in a hot minute.

Not accusing you, for clarification.  Some others on this board though…

If I'm sold on Young or Stroud after thorough evaluation, I'm definitely calling the Bears. But three 1sts and a 3rd? Nah, I'm gonna punt on that. You gotta be convinced you're getting a slam dunk HOFer to make that trade.

That sounds too rich for anyone's blood, tbh.

 

But here's another Question for you :

After what we've seen, is it beneficial to keep Sam as a backup/Bridge or dump him?

Losing to NO would be the absolute most Panthers thing we could do.

It'll happen just like the last couple years and there will be folks here pounding their chests about the meaningless win over the Saints while the Saints say thank you because their FO is smart enough to not win a meaningless game.

I got caught up in the hype and really wanted that NCFS title, but you are right. Reset is in order.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.
