Yea yea yea it's the off season sooo time for another random thread ... I want to know who you people think the best player to ever put on a panthers uniform is ... This isn't a top 5 list so I just want one name lol( I remember an earlier post where you named your 5 favorite player and people including me put like 10 on the list)... sooo think of it like this... Imagine we have no player statues out infront of the stadium and it's your choice on who it gets to be ,who do you pick ...

For me it's a no brainer... Steve Smith

I really don't understand all the Steve Smith votes after him punching 2 teammates and being an ass to fans. To me there really is no other option than Mills. Who not only was one of our best LBers ever but also a really good coach and team motivator. No one else gave to this organization as much as he did.

The best player to ever wear our uniform? Reggie White He wasn't at his best the one year he played for us but over his career he was the best.

I was going to say the same.

The statue thing complicates the question -- Steve Smith may be the best Panthers player, but he's not deserving of a statue in the way that Sam Mills was.

But if you're going on just talent, athleticism and a person's body of work, it's very close between Smith and Peppers.

How in the hell does Sam Mills deserve a statue over Steve Smith? People pull for the panthers because of Steve Smith. No one ever did for Sam Mills. Thousands each weekend come to see STEVE SMITH make sensational plays and fire everyone up. Cant say that about Sam Mills. Steve Smith IS the Carolina Panthers.

He deserves a statue far more than Sam Mills EVER HAS and I hope he retires a panther so he WILL get a statue.

End of Line.

Steve Smith is a far superior athlete than Sam Mills. So why does Sam Mills currently have a statue outside of the stadium? Surely you know what he's done for the team, and the leader he was in the lockerroom.

I'm not saying statues should only be relegated to high-character players over the better athletes, but it's obvious Richardson takes pride in such players.

You seem pretty worked up about all this. I'm a huge fan of Steve Smith as a player, and if we were going on talent alone then, yeah, he'd have a statue. I'm just pointing out that I don't think that's the only thing that goes into a player getting a statue.

Sorry I hurt your feelings.

End of line (or do we mean bottom line here?).

      Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.
