That #2 and #12 would make things interesting. I don't see them passing that up. You still have your choice of Stroud/AR + the #12 pick.

Yeah it’s basically Stroud/AR and a top edge/corner/TE vs. Bryce. 
 

Why did YGM have to suck lol. If he could pass rush at all…

1. Texans do like Bryce

2. Stroud WAS the favorite when we traded because everyone went right to the QB size Reich has had.

3. Fitterer Is open to trading back.     For the right price.   Just like he says he’s “in on every deal”. On every FA and Trade.  It’s why he’s said in the past he’s always open to taking calls for any player, but doesn’t mean he’s going to trade that guy.

4. Carolina is “rumored” to Bryce.  Bryce was the top prospect at QB in the draft all along,  and was always the favorite to go number 1 until the trade.  They may have been torn on a couple guys but after going around to the pro days and meeting with people.  Players start to separate which it seems and sounds Bryce has.   This isn’t just some bleacher report rumors.  We now have multiple local beat reporters hearing the exact same thing.

5. Texans were  never going to take a QB just to take one.  And there’s been rumors even back before the trade that Stroud wasn’t even the number 2 QB on their board.  They also have multiple 1st next year.

 

so you can go ahead and take the tin foil hat off.

How can beat writers know something the coach and gm still don't know...

If Williams looks great again that pick won’t be for sale.

An interesting wrinkle to the non-QBs in this draft is that the guy who read & called Caleb's offense to a tee, racked up 15+ tackles, and led his defense to a huge win over USC could be there at 93.  Not to mention the RB who helped that offense go toe to toe with USC.  

Dorian Williams LB & Tyjae Spears RB

Most likely not but it really depends. A locked in franchise QB could go down early and that team could tank. I honestly think the Bills would be in contention for 1st overall pick next year if Allen went down week 1 or preseason. And they'd absolutely take the haul of picks and keep Allen.

Look at the word in the red circle 

Cool

no one Knows anything until the card turned in.

Thats really every year.

 

 But they have a strong idea.  They’ll just don’t know because the card officially hasn’t been turned in yet.

Maybe the GM and Coaches have an idea.  And really have come away with a clear leader of the pack.  
Just because they haven’t sat down and said “yeah, that’s The guy”, and turn in the card.  

Doesn’t mean they don’t have an idea or know.  And leak out some info.  Josh Klein pretty much spelled it out the other day too.  That the team wants info to get out before the draft, so their big party isn’t a big Bryce vs Stroud fight.

Ditto.  If that were offered, we could take Stroud and jsn and still have 39.  I don't know how they could pass that up.

I totally don't think it happens but I'd be very tempted in that one scenario.

Otherwise, I'm happy with young if that is the choice.  I feel like he has enormous potential.

Can you imagine how furious the Bears would be if we pulled that.

Yeah but gambling on a scenario like that to happen is pretty risky…

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By MHS831 · Posted

      His points are valid.  However, it seems a bit based on past performance and fails to take into consideration trends and conditions that might suggest growth in 2025.   For one, he breaks the team down by position and ranks them separately.  I guess that is a fair way to do it, but they are dependent upon each other. Last year, our DL sucked.  That impacts the rest of the defense.  With no internal pressure, the QBs simply step up to avoid the Edge rush.  I would have suggested that the internal DL is now featuring pass rushers and large people who can collapse the pocket.  Secondly, the LBs were not protected very well in 2024.  It is hard to see the holes and step up when a guard is in your earhole a second after the snap.  Finally, the defensive backs will be forced to make fewer tackles and they will be better in pass protection with a new and improved DL.    Canales made an interesting comment the other day, and I (from the outside looking in) feel the same way:  (paraphrasing) "I have never seen a better group of rookies."   I think the biggest concern is the learning curve.  How long before these rookies are ready?   I am bullish on this team.  I think they win 3 of their first 4 and get confident.  The get the fans behind them.  From there, they win 6 of the remaining 13.  If they stay injury free, they have an outside shot at the NFC south.

      Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.

      I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
