I’m gonna have a lot of people to quote when this trade fails as miserably as I know it will. Y’all really got scammed by Tepper already and you’re lapping it up yet again 

Cool. And you will be no where to be found if it pans out besides the fetal position.

I feel confident you are smarter than Scott Fitterer, Frank Reich, Josh McCowen, Thomas Brown, Duce Staley, Parks Frazier, etc. who all signed off on this deal... /s

Seriously, Tepper hired an all-star cast of offensive coaches.  If they don't have a plan for moving forward with this move, we got much better issues than just this trade.

There is absolutely nothing crippling about this.  Yes, moving DJ doesn't help our WR corp next year, but we have plenty of money to spend in FA plus the potential to finally draft a franchise QB again.

Crippling is what this fanbase has had to endure the past 5 seasons.

We are finally a serious football organization again.  I don't know what's not to like about that

I was also told no way I was smarter than David Tepper, who absolutely schooled me when he snapped up Matt Rhule.

 I realize the Panthers gave up a lot, especially including D.J. Moore.

However, sitting at pick # 9, the Panthers were facing the very real possibility none of the top four QBs in this draft would still be there when they picked.

For all the Panthers gave to obtain the # 1 overall draft pick, I will be highly disappointed if C.J. Stroud is not the QB they select.

Get ready to be disappointed on draft night and for the next several years.

I just don’t get why everyone’s so elated over this. This front office is CONSTANTLY short sighted and panicky. You think an offense of Laviska Shanault , Terrace Marshall, Shi Smith, Ian Thomas, Chuba Hubbard is making noise with Cj Stroud, who’s been BLESSED with skill talent above competition at every position. Did Bryce have Marvin Harrison JR, Garrett Wilson, Chris Olave, Jaxson Smith Njigba, and Emeka Egbuka? Did he have the top pure LT prospect in this draft? Did he even play in the SEC?

 

Hes been kid gloved. He’ll be a FINE nfl qb in the right circumstance. I don’t think this situation is even good at this point. Good OL, good defense, bottom 5 skill position players. 
 

Bryce has done this with all of these circumstances. He’s played in the hardest conference, with lesser talent, and to ME he just looks better. 


Think of it like this. Without a QB, DJ was a waste. Given the situation, we had to decide between a wr or a QB. WR are easier to find than QBs so DJ had to go.

All I can say is they better choose correctly or we are toast.

A friend of mine who has a source in the organization said it’s down to Stroud or Levis but a decision has not been made yet.

Was also told that there isn’t a decision on how WR will be addressed yet but that the team does trust Terrace Marshall’s development.

Take that for what it’s worth.

I know a lot of folks think this means the decision is already made but I kinda doubt that. Pro days, interviews and a sh-load of meetings are still to come.

Breer pointed out this gives us plenty of time to make that call.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
