Trade for Hopkins and we no longer than have that second pick.

we might be able to get him for a third and maybe a day 2 pick next year. 

would be worth it even for a 2nd this year. i would not be upset at all.

if we can pull off DHop and Chark i'd be ecstatic.

I think this totally depends on who you’re targeting. If you’re targeting a polished day 1 starter (Young) then imo you make the move for Hop. Otherwise with any of these other QBs I think you keep the draft capital. 
 

Andrew Luck’s first year he went 11-5 and threw for 4300 yards, 25TDs. If we have a lineup of Hop, Marshall, Hurst, Sanders then I think 4500 yards, 30-35 TDs is totally doable in the Reich system for Young or Stroud. They’re going all out this season and I’m loving it.

There are a bunch of slot receivers in the second round, but no real #1 WRs worthy of that pick. We need to either trade back up into the 1st round for a #1, or trade for a WR from some other team, or get a FA. One of these things is going to happen imo. The again, Fitt just foolishly restructured Jackson so he might do something else stupid with the WR situation.

That’s why I don’t want us to ignore the TE prospects for the second tier of WRs in a class where the top tier is well below recent years. Cheaper FA WRs could be better placeholders to maybe use our 2024 2nd or 2025 1st on a better, true WR1.

Dear lord, those stats are like the ridiculous numbers the Teddy fan boys put up there.

Luck put up great stats with Wayne, Hilton and Allen/Fleener at TE. We don’t have that or even close to that and you think Young/Stroud as rookies will better that?

I feel like this fan base is setting themselves up for a lot of disappointment this year expecting us to be real contenders year 1 of a rookie QB and a new staff.

Sir this division is winnable.

 

The NFC is weak only the Eagles are a legit threat. 49ers good but they have a question mark at QB. We can absolutely be a contender in the NFC with Hopkins.

 

Our defense is young and getting better every year. Oline is legit. We just added a top 7 rb talent. The only major questions left is WR.

Sir he wants a ring not a division winning T Shirt..

      Veteran CB trying out for Panthers

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
