Such a joke. Fitterer traded away the potential league MVP to draft DJ Johnson lol.  CMC probably has more offense than Bruce Young as a RB. 

I mean thats the most talented team - QB(whom is legit) in the league. 

besides i agreed with getting rid of cmc, 16mill per is insane for any RB including whoever the best one is.

CMC is really a RB/WR though.  He is a tad abnormal.  

issue there is simply you drafted a rookie dink and dunker (mortgaged the short term) and traded away the the ideal player to pair him with for development with for essentially nothing to gain offensively.  

I can get down with not overpaying a RB in the big picture.  It’s not smart.  It’s also not smart to try to develop a QB with nothing and CMC was already here and is a 18M cap hit in Carolina this year despite not playing here. 

Big picture, I don’t think you should pay RBs big money.  But that particular trade was bad given we needed to develop Bryce, what we got for him, the little we did with it, and the fact CMC is still impacting our cap in a trade.

Yes hes a weapon, but his main spot is RB. Spending 16per there is not smart football. Much like herniay did for dam near 20 years, but back on CMC.... I liked him and all, but not 16per like. (bump any thread form when he was given that deal). Besides he never lead them to a above 5 wins. Then theres the mystery of his injuries and NOT playing the final few games(was it 2 different years?)...

I disagreed with the trades for young and dj johnson. The whole deal has been handled poorly, each level- the trade, the support, the fixing, etc. Just a huge mess thats going to take years just to getting back to even... 

I honestly thought they would been able to run the ball like the final 8-9 games in 22, that should have taken loads of pressure off. But low and behold the OL is the worst unit *if you factor in giants injuries*. Not to say young would be lighting it up, cause even when the stars aligned....hes played like a rookie and not some #1 savior lifting the whole team to winning.

We already paid him though.   Which is why he is a huge cap hit for us right now despite not playing here.  And we are developing a rookie QB who we mortgaged the future for right now….not in win now mode.  So just from a developmental standpoint of Bryce Young and where we presently are….that deal  and even the inclusion of DJ Moore in the other just don’t really make sense big picture. 

the vision and overall whatever this group is doing is just bad.  The front office doesn’t seem to have a plan.  They seem reactionary. 

but we shouldn’t of paid CMC when we did.  And I don’t endorse paying RBs in general.  I have said that since we talked of paying DWill. 

In all honesty, I think the actual reason we traded CMC was the front office organizing a tank for the #1 overall.   And that didn’t work.   Nothing they do works. But I 100% believe they thought trading CMC guaranteed them the #1 pick in the draft.  They didn’t think or see Wilks pulling off what he did.  He fugged it up lol.

The return value was poor I agree but McCaffrey would not be seeing that level of production here with this oline and he would probably be banged up as well. Not to mention we haven't seen a coach with even half the creativity of Shanahan in many years.

The more egregious trade was DJ Moore. Top 10 wide receiver and one of our desperate top needs is...

I’m not implying he would do the same thing here…

just pointing out we are attempting to develop a dink and dunker QB….and we traded away one of the top 10 offensive players in the entire NFL (who is built to aid a dink and dunker) for frankly nothing (and taking a huge cap hit this year on him)

and yes, DJ Moore is another example. 

everything is just different examples of a poor front office with a poor plan vision 

there definitely is a luck/unlucky aspect to some things.  I think most reasonable people thought trading CMC locked in that #1 overall pick in the moment.   But you aren’t this bad for this long…..if you don’t have horrible people in your front office.  It’s not just Tepper.  There are lots of controlling and meddling owners with good talent.  Tepper has bad people in the front office.  We still need to burn this thing down.  Again.

Don’t know why y’all insist on single out #9, who ironically would have much more offense if CMC was here. AT on pace for a career year with 9. It’s a team game. This is a bad offense no matter who the QB is.

    • They know within 15 mins.  Many moons ago skins drafted Heath Shuler at like 5th overall and Gus Frerotte in the late rounds. You know the plan, its Heaths team. Old OLman stink said within 15 minutes they knew Gus was the better QB.  I didn't need 15 or players on the same field, I just knew like Bill said "he better walk on water", which he hasn't. I do blame tepper mainly for it, he spend the greater part of 2 year telling everyone Watson would be a panther......and fail....but a great fail...then Stanford turned panthers down.....tepper was beyond pissed and wanted a QB. He forced the trade and picked BY......and now by .....some grace of the gods formed a team with 4 QBs of no hope...... insane given the other roster spots.....
    • He definitely knows nothing about the Panthers, but there’s no denying he’s a pioneer in this whole draft grading and mock draft field.
    • I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep.
