Man, this city deserves Wemby.  

As crazy as it sounds, he'd be an even bigger star than Cam Newton.  Potential to be the greatest Charlotte pro player ever.  Prayers that he can stay healthy at his size though.

 

Knowing our luck though I bet we don't get him.

I haven't followed the NBA I'm years but that guy looks like a complete freak. He's like Giannis but even freakier. Like something produced in a lab specifically designed to dominate at basketball.

This upcoming NBA draft is a two player one, Wemby and Scoot Henderson. The Hornets will get pick 3 at best.

I like Steve Wilks.  I really don’t think this is going to end up with him as the hire if Sean Payton wants this job.  Payton can build a pro staff quickly with his experience and he probably removes a lot of guess work for Tepper.  
 

For those thinking Payton is pulling some Saints loyalist hose job don’t understand his ego.  He would come here to win a championship.  He will reveal in beating everyone in this division…mostly the Saints.

    • 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.
