Disappears for weeks at a time. Pittman is better. There is no answer. Better to hope you catch lightning in a bottle in the draft. We can’t Hurst and Sanders and Chark our way to a competitive roster

We should have hired you for GM. You know the key to success!

Pittman isnt a number one. Send burns to cincy for higgins

In 2023, Pittman finished #4 of all WRs in receptions. #14 in receiving yards. 
 

With a rookie Anthony Richardson and Gardner Minshew throwing him the ball. 
 

Pittman is easily a #1. The better question is should Pittman be considered a top 10 WR.

Exactly. He made plays every week. People saying he isn't a #1 didn't watch him at all last year.

The term Number 1 is just too vague. People throw it around without any  definition for it.

I've said it so many times before on here, but far too many people confuse being an NFL #1 with being a fantasy #1

So they only look at a WR #1 as someone who is a top 10-12 player at their position, even if there are 32 starters in the NFL at that position.

Sure, everyone wants a Top 10 player at any position, but only 10 teams in the league have one of those

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
