Added bonus Diontae is actually 5'10" 180 so we'll get a real world assessment of BY's size in camp. Settle the size mystery once and for all

We know his actual height from the combine.  5'10" 1/8 was the official measurement.

To put things in perspective…I was trolling a Steelers board and they are saying Donte was: 

Healthy in 2023 and had one of his best years

Tackles well for his size

A ball hawk

Small but plays a lot bigger

Still runs a 4.3 40

Team guy who never takes plays off

An excellent punt returner

I can’t be the only one that saw him get easily blocked against most runs and he is seriously injury prone.  He takes a lot of plays off and was always a liability.  Just my opinion

Well, that's really not the point, and it somewhat speaks to my point. You don't have to be blazing fast to make it. 4.39 is plenty, especially for a receiver that is quick and has a knack for getting open. Ladd is that guy. Talk about his lack of prototypical size (he's not as small as some or as big as some), or talk about his injuries, but you can't credibly use speed as a reason not to draft him.

Needs:

  • Edge (even if we sign one--second rounder)
  • Corner (Must be a second rounder unless we sign one) 
  • Wide Receiver 
  • Tight End 
  • Sam LB (to replace YGM)
  • Will LB
  • Center

I’d probably still go WR with one of the 2nds, but instead of C, I’d go CB or DE with the other 2nd.

True but he has made some really good open field tackles, against RBs too.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
