Are you watching this kid dominate the best Seniors in the country? He could play either RE or LE. He plays the run almost as well as he rushes the passer (did you see that containment on the toss). I'm sold, he needs to be in a Panthers uniform next season.

do we have the ammunition.

Who knows? Maybe he will go into the draft and have average numbers (I know his size will always be in question to the Al Davis' of the NFL). He might just make it to us. I doubt it based on this performance but the combine has always made some guys rise and fall so who knows.

my thinking is if we trade peppers..then we would go after a bigger DE more LE type.

6'1" 263 might not sound like much but thats pretty thick for a 6'1 frame. He has great acceleration and pass rushing skills and plays the run very well. Sounds like a perfect fit for a Meeks undersized talented type of DE.

we could franchise pep, then trade him before the draft for a high draft pick in rd 1, then trade down a few spots for a 1st and 2nd or something then take graham in the 1st, a DT and WR in the 2nd.

I'd hate to lose pep but that scenario would have me running through the streets naked on draft day.

I would praise the genius that is Hurney if that happens. But don't count on it.

Perfect Scenario

Late 1st: Get Graham

1st 2nd: Brian Price/ Dan Williams

2nd 2nd: Jacoby Ford or Gilyard

That draft would be one of the best ever for us at least on paper.

Wouldn't mind seeing Lefevour in the 3rd-4th range as well.

We need a Wide Receiver more than anything. Draft one with the first pick we have, no matter where it is.

Pretty much. We've got two receivers and something like four projects on the team right now.

Fortunately, this is a GOOD draft to need WR help, really deep.

It is interesting that people want to trade probowlers for draft picks. Exactly how many sacks did Brown get last year? How many did any of the rookie defensive ends get? How good have we been developing wide receivers we drafted?

I am not saying there is a way to do it or not do it. Just that for whatever reason, we don't seem to get alot out of our drafted players at DE or WR. In fact the last 2 who made a big splash were Smitty and Peppers in 2001 and 2002. Since then...........not much.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Totally.  They had a guy starred on their boards that made it in trade worthy range. The risk was totally worth it.  Our case was the classic of a franchise not having a QB, do what you can to get one.  That often results being thrust into a bad situation, putting crazy pressure on 1 guy, and it becomes even worse when he's not that great.  But if we find ourselves just a few spots behind a guy we really like, I don't see a problem.   We just have to see how the season shakes out and enjoy this roller coaster.  It's not pretty at times but we somehow are 5-4 haha. If Bryce turns a page and cranks out some truly QB driven wins, then maybe we do consider just rolling with him and a Dalton replacement in 2026.  Someone like a Jarrett Stidham/Tanner McKee.   However, if he stays mostly the same (whether we fall apart or he struggles on/off but we still win some), I think you have to leave to door open for a QB in the draft.  Scout and meet with the top ones, see if any really fit what D&D want.  Maybe that guy could be Mateer.  Who knows

      Young QBs lead their teams to undefeated October

      I lived in that area for a minute, and 2 decades of BB and Brady made them delusional.  They think everyone is the 2nd coming of Brady and they're just on a short coffee break til the next dynasty.

      Bryce Young hasn't cleared 200 passing yards in a single game in that window.  Meanwhile, Rico Dowdle has put together the greatest 5 game stretch of rushing production in Panthers history.   And RBs have sort of been our thing, so there is ample competition.  This team hasn't been lead by Bryce Young in that stretch. Those wins are simplistically 3 things.  Schedule, Rico, and defense.
