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?).

      Breakout 2025 Candidates

      Another layer to that is Ive seen Seattle has been in the market for CB help this off-season.   Michael had a higher PFF grade than Horn who got 15 games this season. He wants to be here too, that's a huge bonus for any 5 win team that had awful pass rush.  The 7th rounder Michael Barrett didn't last long on Seattle, he was cut before the season I think and ended up on browns PS. He's already been on 5.......5 teams within one year.......

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      By Basbear · Posted

      You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      THANKS my guy! Keeping up with this threads theme, if I view a thread and there's only 20 posts and some time passes. If I see there's one new post and read the name; @Dave Gettleman's Shortsis among the chosen few that I will reopen that thread just to see what you posted.    Thanks again, plus not just a scout, thats scotty mccloughans son?!?!? If not for the deep claws of booze, scotty is among the best talent finders this league has recently had. Last I heard he ran a consulting business. Caden could be one of those who's on a early path to being a GM in the future. I was a big fan of his dad, dam shame about booze demon ruining his career.
