If Bryce turns into that guy, and the Panthers acquire a playmaker that can help them score in bunches, sure.

Otherwise, naw. There's almost no chance the Panthers win a defensive game or a 'team win' type situation.

Yeah, the type of games we won or almost won last year are out the window. 

I am thinking we are going to be a grind it out rushing team on offense that attempts to control the clock. But, we will likely give up very easy and quick TD's on defense. That should be interesting to see.

Yeah, I don't know how the team pulls out wins unless there's some serious hits in the second round. Usually, top end second round picks have about a ~20% chance at being a pro-bowl player. So, I figure that Carolina has about a 50/50 at finding a good player if they don't trade their top two picks.

It's going to hurt more next year if the Panthers are picking first overall again, having to give the Bears the 33rd overall pick.

I think we win more games than this year. I like what we're doing on offense and while I have my concerns about the defense we should remember that this is Day 1 of the tampering period. There's plenty of time to add pieces. 

The fact of the matter is that they're starting off in a hole. They have to add talent to a roster with a lot of holes and not a ton of money. I think investing heavily in the line of scrimmage is the way to go.

Man, the Bears really fleeced us bad. They had to be dancing a jig when they saw what we looked like in preseason and probably doing it again watching us not field a defense. I don’t think Moore and our two future picks could have worked out any better for them. Pick value (ignoring year since we are both rebuilding so only talent matters) was 3000 for us and 5230 for them. Then you throw DJ Moore on top. Damn Fitterer. Add in his, I’d rather have a 5th than two 1sts (2nds cancel) for Burns and we basically burned 3 1st round picks for nothing.

      I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.

      This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.

      to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
