Not trying to be a moment guy, but isnt this the best FA class in panther history?

All it has to do is beat the wahl and evans one right? 

Plus this reminds me how poor all the past GM were during FA, "resigning those 7-9 players"

This has to be the best right?

Look the job of a WR is to get open and catch the ball, thielen is great at those two things. 

Sure hes not a 4.4 burner, dont care so long you get space and catch the ball. He should be money in the red zone, a huge weakness for some time here in panther land.

Only position we really upgraded was TE. We replaced CMC AND Moore with Sanders and Thielen. Both downgrades. 

The team still has questions to be answered at QB although we have the no 1 pick. 

I think you might be high on the hopium, which is fine, but you're definitely in the moment.

By your logic, Foreman was a massive downgrade from CMC but that worked out quite well.

Leave the football talk to the grown ups. All of these moves have been calculated, strategic, and when paired with what we have done on the coaching staff sets us up for long term success as long as we get the QB position right.

People calling him Bersin are talking out of their ass and don’t know him at all

Hes got more talent in his  nail than bersin whole body. 

Hes a killer.

He had a top WR play for 2 years, look at 17-18, thats as good as it gets.

It’s definitely been the most exciting and entertaining by far if you count the trade up to 1

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      You joke, but it can always be worse. He might walk with a limp or need assistance. Different sport, but Lonzo Ball couldn't even walk up steps a year after his injury.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By Icege · Posted

      I mean... a lot of the information that could've helped set better expectations has always been out there: There was no RB on the team under contract for the 2025 - 2026 season except for Miles Sanders. The team did not have a second round pick going into the 2025 season due to the trade for Young. Chuba's extension did not happen until the beginning of November. Jonathon Brooks was the clear RB1 in the class with a massive gap between RB1 & RB2. Example: Dane Brugler had Brooks as RB1, overall #48; Blake Corum was RB2, #81 overall. The Giants held pick #47 and had just lost Saquon Barkley to the Eagles in free agency. They were going to take Brooks had the Panthers not jumped in front of them. So if we're framing things with that context: Chuba was expected to be RB1 Miles (at the time) was RB2 Brooks was essentially RB3, stashed for rehab in 2024 with a long runway. The original injury occurred Nov 2023 while the re-injury occurred December 2024. That is right in the high-risk window for recurrence, especially in explosive athletes. The fact that it also happened on a non-contact play suggests possible biomechanical issues such as muscle imbalance, rather than a failed surgery (or bad decision-making).   NFL teams invest heavily in medically vetting prospects. If there had been a clear red flag in imaging or recovery markers, the team is going to find it. This sucks and the Panthers have sucked, yes, but this wasn't blind optimism or malpractice by the front office. It was a calculated decision based on the roster, draft capital, positional scarcity, etc.

      Clowney released

      Yep, but they can all rotate with Brown, Brown and Robinson (sounds like a law firm). Can't continue to have Derrick Brown out there for 90+ percent of the defensive snaps. An injury was bound to happen.
