Why is no one considering double dip at WR?

Corbett at Center with Cade Mays as his backup is hardly a set plan. I think we could get another WR at 65 that would still improve our roster, and maybe actually give ISM some more snaps

adding a rookie C isnt much of a better plan for 2024.  Think they need to pay an old vet that gets cut later at C in case Corbett stinks

We need to go BPA, and I don’t expect that to be a WR double dip. It might not be a WR at all tbh.

 I mean it would be a very Panther thing to do….to avoid WR in a WR draft.  No arguing that.  We are the worst team in all of sports for a reason.

I’ve been begging for the WR double dip since before the combine.  Since we before we even had two 2nds. 

we should make this an offensive skill position draft class.

Double dip at WR to kick off the draft.  Edge in the 3rd.  Get a TE and pass catching RB in 4 and 5.

rent Gilmore at DB and rent a backup vet C in FA

Add A couple of lineman picks in the late rounds and call it a day.

It’s really the only one that matters. No raw 2nd round edge rusher is going to do much in the grand scheme of things for us. CB? Sign Gilmore if it’s that big of a deal

This organization needs to find out what they have in Bryce this season. They absolutely should be double dipping at WR. If Bryce ain’t it then at least the next guy has a fighting chance 

This is an offensive league. You’re never going to have a complete team. You’re always going to have a weakness. Every year the league changes rules in hopes of more points being scored. Our offense was downright awful last year and people still want to spend picks on defense… I don’t get it. 

I was told this was the deepest WR class in quite some time. We can't get a 2nd WR later in the draft?

I might be the only person high on Johnson. I really feel he will be our #1 WR this season and I expect us to sign him longterm. He seems to get lost in all this WR talk. I'm all for double dipping at WR just not with our first 2 picks. We can get our 2nd WR later in the draft.

I would 100% be ok with taking two WRs 

For example if we took AD at 33 and Ladd at 39 that would be incredible

or if we take XL at 39 and Javon Baker at 65 or in the fourth I'd be happy as well

Honestly everyone stuck on wr.  The draft could very well fall where we don't get a wr at all because it would be a reach and better players at other positions are on the board.

Yeah that's what I was thinking would be best. On top of the new playbook, new oc, working out the cadence while learning how to identify defenses, could get really ugly without a vet C with legit snaps in the league.

We have holes and little depth across our roster. Just go BPA. Get guys that can be cornerstones of the organization. Not just some guy to fill a position of need

we can sprinkle talent everywhere and solve nothing.  

There is really good offensive skill talent in this draft at WR,.  If we draft two, odds improve you actually solve a problem. 

plus we need to see if we can salvage the massive investment at QB.  That should take priority over defending the pass and not being able to move the ball on offense.   You can’t move the ball….its not going to matter about your D talent.

Also we need one for the future obviously, but how many targets are we expecting a rookie to get after Johnson and Thielen? If it's not a slot/route runner type guy I don't think many of those 2.7 second balls are going to a vertical guy. If BPA is a corner or edge that would have immediate impact I'd be bummed if we reached for an XL or Troy Franklin over them

Bro, I've called for WRs on both second round picks forever. Ladd, Ricky then Van Pran would be my dream for the 1st three picks. I don't think TE is that big of a need. 

Thielen and Diontae could legit be gone next season. Why not get their insurance plans in a WR heavy draft? And even if Diontae comes back, he'll be trying to get 20M+ a year. Shouldn't the team prepare for that?

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      By CRA · Posted

      I mean, poster also said Young or Mahomes, it would have made no difference.  If there was way to actually test that hypothetical, I would sell every belonging I have and wager that Mahomes would indeed yield different results.  Mahomes automatically changes the D coverages.  He automatically changes the threats.  He attacks and threatens a field different vastly different.   We have seen good QBs and great QBs play behind horrific OLs in a single season....and they don't default into being the worst team in the NFL.  Frank Reich was old, stubborn and not creative enough to deal with an anomaly QB like Bryce.  The best QB in the NFL wouldn't be handicapping Frank, they would be enhancing Frank.  Starting week 1, Frank didn't even trust Bryce with basics....Frank gave him I what I feel comfortable with you being able to do offense.  Which took throws and plays off the table because Bryce couldn't do early on what a bad vet in Dalton could.  Mahomes would not yield the same results.

      All I have to say to this really, is it sounds nice and downgrades Stroud to make Young look better is more like what this take does. Look at the WR numbers the year before and then the year with Stroud. He made them better, not the other way around. That’s my opinion. I appreciate you designating that it was yours. Many state these things as facts.

      but what if.....and here me out....the pro Bryce Young stuff was coming from people under Fitterer.  You know, the people who are employed to feed him that input.  And they happen to all still be employed here.  when Rhule was fired I desperately wanted Fitterer fired.  It set things up for Fitterer to be the sacrificial lamb the next time things went poorly....every time we move on from a disaster, we are retaining a heavy % of the folks who helped bring the disaster we are "moving on from".  Everyone argued Fitterer probably could be great and it was all Rhule.  We are just repeating the same stuff to a degree IMO.   Panthers needed a clean slate post Rhule era.  Needed another post Frank era.  Things were just too bad or too dysfunctional IMO to be salvaging so much.   We keep failing to do that.
