First I don't even want Payton.  However, if you are going to make this kind of trade for a great HC, you better already have your QB which we don't.  Those picks can be used to trade for a vet QB or move around in the draft to acquire one.  Not worth it....

this seems like my worst case scenario.  And I think Payton is just using us.  Nor do I want him. 

I don't want an old school DC.  That's Wilks.  Too conservative.  You can't change it. 

and Payton is horrible.  He is Sean Payton. 

I’d take Wilks over Payton any day of the week. Don’t make me hate the panthers Tepper. Don’t hire Payton.

I just love how many Huddlers just KNOW that we can't win with Wilks. Give the guy the resources he needs, and let's go to war.

 

Now, it would be nice if he could upgrade McAdoo, or at least pair him with a guy that has actual experience developing young QB. Maybe try and upgrade Holcomb as well. Just let the guy pick his own staff for once,

 

I ain't giving NO anything. We either get Payton as a FA. Or not at all. And I personally am in the not at all group.

I have a feeling that whomever is hired many are going to de disappointed.  

That is obvious.  I can't wait to see the overreacting either way. It will either be, all your SB's belong to us or this organization is trash. It should be great entertainment for a few weeks at least.

    • I agree.  He is solid. Another player I think is underrated and with good reason (I will explain): Monroe Freeling UGA Many have him the fifth-rated OT, but I would put him at 2 or 3.  Reason?  He played the season with an ankle issue and still kicked arse.  Here is a write-up that describes him--the injury, in my view, has him rated lower than if healthy all season. OT Monroe Freeling Georgia | 6'7" | 315 lbs Ht:6'7" Wt:315 lbs Class:JR Age:21 (25-Jul-2004) Monroe Freeling earned Second-Team All-SEC honors from league coaches for his performance during the 2025 season. Starting 12 of 13 games, he was twice named SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week after dominant showings against Auburn and Texas, notably grading out at 80 percent with zero pressures allowed against the Longhorns. During the 2025 season, he managed a nagging ankle injury suffered against Kentucky but remained a cornerstone for an offense that ranked first nationally in fourth-down conversions. As a draft prospect, he is recognized for his exceptional reach, mobility in pass protection, and "road-grading" power in the running game. While he has proven to be a reliable starter at left tackle, he also offers significant versatility having started at multiple positions along the line during the 2024 season. Here are some others I like (mostly developmental, but we have at least a year--we hope--at RT)   Your boy: The Panthers were looking at Barber at the SR Bowl practices, I believe.  Good run blocker--needs work in pass pro.  A RT candidate? Shelton would be an ideal swing OT. I really like Bowry.  Footwork is huge for a T, and we do a lot of zone blocking.  
    • We could/should re-sign BC and Nijman and draft 2.  There are 5 or 6 expected to go after round 1 that I really like.   Some are a year away, so I would give Moton an apprentice now.
    • I think (April 2025) the Panthers already gave Ickey his 5th year deal for 2026, a $17m fully guaranteed.  This, in my view, eliminates the practicality of signing a free agent, as if any ever make it to free agency anyway.  So we have a year before deciding on Ickey's next deal / future.
