It REALLY depends on free agency. How well can the team add kep components and weapons via free agency. There isn't a lot of money to work with, but they certainly can add with a few Shrewd moves. 

I really don't feel any QB in this draft is worth trading up to 3 or above for. 

If they want to compete this season, which I absolutely believe they want to, then they will aquire a competent veteran QB, and add talent through the draft. 

 

If one of the top 4 QBs is there at 9, I really won't be upset if they draft him. If they go the veteran QBBroute, then they absolutely have to add weapons and talent to both sides of the ball. 

 

I do trust in this staff.  So whatever they decide to do, I'm going to be cheering them on.

I wasn't crazy about the idea of signing Carr originally. But with the staff we have now, I've warmed to the idea of having Carr as a bridge. Draft the best guy available at #9 and let them develop behind Carr.

Carr has multiple suitors - there's no way he's going to agree to that.

Sorry the idea of playing with Brisett and Minshew and waiting another year for a QB is truly nauseating. 

You don't win a marathon in the first mile, this is going to take more than the 2023 season.  No, not the 7-year Rhule, but 2-3 years.

Unless Stroud or Young falls to #9 (not happening) I don't like drafting a QB this year.  Too many holes to trade draft capital away and AR/Levis are long term projects at best (likely busts).

Don't screw up our cap for a mid-tier, severely overpriced FA.

Again, the practical route isn't very sexy, but it's likely the correct one to get this team going in the right direction.

I think the whole accumulation of draft picks is overrated as proven that the New England model faltered once Tom Brady left.  Without a franchise QB, you have no chance at legitimately competing for a SuperBowl, you do everything you can to get that right, within reason.  

IF the staff have conviction of a QB in the draft, you do what it takes to get him.  If there's no conviction, then stay put.  

Once you have your QB, then you can go back to the norm and save your picks to build the roster.

I hope they stay put then.  I know the QB purgatory we've been in and I also understand moving up for a player you really like.  It seems, at for the fan base, the first is necessitating the later.  Let's just hope the the coaching staff doesn't feel that pressure.  If they TRULY, 100% are in love with one of the QBs, then go get him.  Moving up because the fans--even David Tepper, are being impatient is the wrong way to go.

      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.
