If we're in position to draft Adonai Mitchell or Ladd McConkey as the 5-6th WR off the board, the path is clear.  If not, then I'm not sure about WR at 33.  I just hope Morgan doesn't overdraft to the effect Fitt and DG both tended to do, but who knows.  I know the speed is tantalizing but I'm not wild about Worthy.  Coleman is a wildcard for me and the value just isn't there with the rest of them.

Coleman screams Dave Gettlemen logic to me.  I'd hate to see that at 33.

He just doesn't fit what we need but I like the guy.  Could have success, just not in CAR

agree.  and a HUGE part of success for dudes is about fit/team.  Coleman IMO doesn't fit with where the 2024 Panthers are.

Thats not how it works though.  There were lots of wide receivers last year that went much later than 33 and had huge holes compared to what we can get at 33 this year that contributed greatly to their teams last season.    Puka had one of the best receiving rookie seasons in history and went in the 5th round and had plenty of holes in his game.  

This. There are booms and busts and underperformers and over performers in every single draft class. Always have been, always will be.

We should go BPA the whole draft.

Rather, BoPA.

Best Offensive Playmakers Available.

That's probably what they will do except they will unfortunately exclude QB. If there is a QB sitting there that has a reasonable chance to be better than the one we have? 

If that happened, they would pass. I’d sure love to hear the discussion over it. (edit: take the damned QB, the one we have has not given us a reason not to).

For me, I want a special player and don’t care what position. Just be special. Absolutely do not pass on special. A center, a returner, safety, don’t care what their position is. Do that and go find more of them.

With all of our needs on offense I can't imagine a scenario where a quarterback is BoPA

If Penix is there, if you're married to taking the BPA, then you have to have a discussion. He arguably had the best Combine, throws accurately, has an arm---can basically spin it. I can imagine him being the BPA at the beginning of day 2 of the 2024 draft after all the careers are set in stone.

Sure, but what you are saying (or the people saying BOPA) is that a value choice has arbitrarily been made to exclude defensive players from consideration. Because, greater need. 

Keep on with that train of thought and you can get to elevating QB to the biggest need. 

Personally I wish they’d get another young QB to compete and may the least terrible win. Doesn’t have to be at 33. Don’t care where they get him just get him. (make this guy show me he can beat Somebody out. It would help him too if he could).

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      They said there wasn't clear evidence to warrant the overturn.  How would it have made a difference at that point in the game?   https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-privately-admitted-to-erroneous-reversal-of-catch-by-panthers

      WWE pay per view and programming thread

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Me, I'm sick of WWE channel hopping their PLEs and shows. Netflix now with Raw. USA still has Smackdown but you can't get it with Roku if you don't also have cable. Then they went from all the PLEs on Peacock to ESPN+ which required upgrading your Disney+ package. Then they frikkin' move Saturday Night Main Event with John Cena's retirement match back over to frikkin' Peacock, which we'd just cancelled two months prior because no PLEs there anymore. And there are fewer, but longer matches and its the same danged stories again and again. Rematch after rematch after rematch between PLEs. Fewer matches, fewer wrestlers, more promos (of lesser quality) and less action.  It just seems like it's all fillers and re-runs. I'm tired of Cody Rhodes. I'm tired of Jey Uso. I'm tired of the two Brons. Shuffle the deck a bit guys, this game's getting stale.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      Chuba was 3 yards behind the 3 gap. He was lined up weak offset I. It was a 33 dive. Chuba needed to power through off of Ekwonu's block and slip off into the 5 gap where the Tremble had the lane sealed and Rick pulled the LB out of the 5 gap. Here's a visual if you need proof. Chuba did a jump cut laterally to the 2 gap on the right side with unblocked defenders crashing down and went airborne.   This is a 33 dive that should have been slipped off the block into the 5 gap. Chuba lacked vision, but you can see Rico and Bryce staring at the intended running lane sealed off by Tremble and Ekwonu. He should have read Ekwonu's block. The blocking and misdirection is NOT set up for the right side. The play worked. Chuba failed to execute on this play. Trust who you want to, but I wouldn't suggest you argue with the video. Anyone telling you this was drawn up to go right with the blocking did not analyze it. They are correct it should have been a called dive, and it was a called dive.  This was a weak offset I bringing Tremble in motion from the right to the left.
