So many of you are obsessed with "giving the bears the #1 pick" like theyre in our division and theyre guaranteed to draft the next Rodgers or Brady or something.  They've been struggling  to find a competent QB for going over 30 years and somewhat recently infamously picked Trubisky over Mahomes and Justin Fields isnt setting the league on fire exactly.  

Look at it from the PANTHERS perspective. We already used all those picks/players on Bryce and there is not poo you can do about it. We do still have our original 2nd, 3rd, and 4th rounders for 2024 draft. We have the 49ers and Titans 5th round picks, and the Cardinals 6th round pick, for a total of 6 picks. 

2025 we have our original 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th pick. And we have the Cardinals and Cheifs 7th round selections. For a total of 7 picks. 

That isn't the end of the universe if you can draft competently. Think of it this way, we still have 2/3 picks of our top 3 picks in the next 2 drafts.  If we do end up sucking enough to get the Bears the #1 overall, WE have the #1 pick in R2, R3, and R4 in 2024. Which is still pretty significant imo. The draft doesnt end in R1.

The bears are like us. Would have ruined mahomes too.

If you followed this team long enough you’d know that in these situations our starters make the opposing team’s third stringers look all-pro. I expect that to happen. 

Plus, there's backups and then there's "backups" and Houston's backups have clearly been better than Carolina's backups AND starters to date.

      Also hit the over.  Banking on Man City running up the score and Leeds getting a lucky strike.

      Tailed you.  Also Free Play, which is why the risk shows $0.00. Let me look at hoops and get back to you.  Always fade Hubert, haha.

      Hard to say right now, but good thinking.  I look at this as the info we need for free agency.  Looks like we are going to free up about $10m so far; watch to see if any contracts (Moehrig, Horn, Brown, etc) are reworked the first week of March.  Then after free agency, we will have a pretty good idea. Right now, to be fair to your question because I am sure you are aware of its timing: In free agency, I see us adding an OT of some sort and drafting one at some point.  It all depends on how they view Ickey, Nijman, and maybe BC.  That OT could be Nijman.  I do not see the future OT--just a stop gap. I see the Panthers signing a free-agent center.  I think the market is strong.  I see Fortner from the Saints as a prime candidate and his salary is estimated at $6m by Spotrac.  the Saints are $42m over the cap, so I doubt they are able to re-sign many of their own.  He will be 28.  I also expect them to re-sign Corbett (depth) at a vet min ($1.5m) deal. I also see free agency as a strong area to get a free safety who can play and is under age 30.  Hawkins, Cook, and Bryant are all around age 27-28, play at a high level, and should be had for about $15m per. EDGE: Arnold Ebiketie is a good value because he gets pressure at a high percentage.  He had 2 sacks and Atlanta just drafted 2 pass rushers last year.   He has a 70+ PFF rating and will (Spotrac) demand about $9m.  While he is not the answer, he is a great third down option with Princely and he would allow for Jones, Scourton, and Princely to develop.
