Rank the players

Rank the top 10 Panthers players that you think would go first if the League made everybody a free agent and GMs got to choose in one big roto draft. Factor in age, motor, productivity, salary, everything...

Getting your pass rush on in is the trendy thing to do in the NFL these days, so I'd say Peppers would go first. other than that, Offensive Lineman are always in big demand, with some skill position players mixed in.

It was hard for me to pick between Stewart and DeAngelo for spot #3... Stewart got the nod because of his youth (youngest guy on the team if you didn't know, even younger than our rooks this year) and his ability being at worst equal to DWill...

That said, if you were the GM that selected Stewart, you would do so knowing his punishing style will considerably shorten his career compared to DWill's style...

Stewart has emerged this season as one of my most favorite Panthers of all time... He's humble, doesn't mind sharing the load or being second string, and runs with a fire at least 3/4 of the starting RBs in the league don't have...

Peppers is highly thought of around the league, and the most freakishly athletic player in the league. Tons of head coaches will think they can motivate him to peak potential.

With the exception of this year, Gross has been an iron man of sorts. He is a rare bookend who will anchor the line for the next 7 years.

    • Joe Person   @josephperson · 16m     Panthers become the 1st team this yr with 5 weekly winners: Rico Dowdle, Ryan Fitzgerald, Sam Martin, Tre'von Moehrig and Bryce. Panthers last did that in 2017: Cam Newton, Julius Peppers, Luke Kuechly, Jonathan Stewart and Damiere Byrd.
    • Gotta wonder if Smitty's brain has turned to mush with how hard he played in the NFL
    • OK, fair enough--however, since my point was that drafting a QB in the top 10 is stupid, if you consider the players who were not drafted in the top 10 or those who WERE drafted in the top 10 and did not secure starting positions with the team that drafted them, you should see the point.  Is it smart to draft a QB in the top 10 when only 4 are still starting for the team that drafted them.  Next, consider that half of that number, 2, were drafted outside the first round.  Next, there are 4 (Goff, Mayfield, Jones, and Darnold) who are starting on other teams after busting.   That number could increase as Arizona seems ready to move on from Murray, Miami is not sold on Tua, and jacksonville is still waiting for Trevor to start looking elite.  Bryce?   So to answer your question, there are MANY more QBs in the NFL who have busted and become starters on other rosters, were drafted after day 1, or are still on the cusp than the four who have become elite.  I thought that point was made.
