I love Williams, and I think he's one of the best flat out playmakers that this team has ever had (outside of Steve Smith for sure). But I'm just not sure about giving him a monster deal. How much longer can he really play at the level he's played at the past two seasons?

I know it's a discussion for another time, and there's sure to be a shitstorm about it until he's locked up or gone, but I'm just not so sure.

We have a young, solid roster and money to spend. Suddenly Hurney doesn't look like such a fool.

Beason, DWill, Stewart, Otah, Kalil, Thomas Davis...

We have alot of young players still under rookie contracts that are going to want to get paid. Giving Pep a huge contract means you eventually have to lose several of those guys. We're probably better off in the long run letting him walk.

For now, just take care of our own players and add a few mid-level FA WRs. Lance Moore is a guy I like that should be pretty cheapish. Breaston I like even more but I don't know how reasonable that would be to bring him in.

Keeping the Core of this team intact is critical. By letting Peppers go we are going to be able to keep those players here. We would have had to decide on which players, if any, we would be able to keep had we tagged Pep.

I would consider tendering Marshall to see if anyone would bite. We might be able to get a decent CB with the draft choice.

Otherwise I would sign Davis and Marshall along with Moore.

Go Panthers

      Thoughts on using AI for drafting?

      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.
