The draft makes people upset because we all develop patterns and strong opinions about who we should draft and when that plan is breached, we have to readjust.  I try to look at it from the perspective of what I think they are going to do, not what I know they need to do and if they don't, they are wrong.  I must admit, I was hoping for a RB later, but a RB could be the most bang for the buck.  There used to be a day when they were really coveted. I don't mind drafting a RB on day 2, but I mind giving them contract #2.  I just wonder if the new Guards have not already addressed the problem.

All I know is, in terms of their visits.  It sure looked WR,  RB and DT heavy,  Got to think we leave draft with those spots in their ideal world.  

But I don’t want any RB at 39.  We can round out our backfield later in the draft.

There's not a position on our roster that can't be upgraded in the draft. If the right guy at the time of the pick is a running back, then take him. 

We are literally a "the cupboard is bare" team right now. There's one sacred cow on the team that can't be replaced and he just got an extension this off-season to play DT for us. But there's still a spot to either side of him that can and should be replaced.

Running back under appreciated in the league, well that's a load of bull. Undervalued does not mean under-utilized. If that RB can catch and can find the hole in the line and make something for us, it'd do so much for our offense. And if he can pick up the blitz and block like a demon? Heck, that'd be great.

We had a guy like that. Dude played in the Super Bowl this year while our team took vacation and watched the game on TV.

      Bleacher report not buying Panthers’ hype

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Well, everyone is a critic.  not much meat on the bone here in analysis but if the team needs motivation … lol   I have also heard a lot of talking head or two say that ‘Young is not in the same class as most of these teams and that in 12 of the 17 games he is the lesser QB   BR write up below  2025 record: 8-9 Last season, the Carolina Panthers made the playoffs for the first time since 2017. They won the division. Bryce Young made strides, throwing for 3,011 yards, 23 touchdowns and 11 interceptions with a 63.6 percent completion rate. Wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan won the 2025 Offensive Rookie of the Year award. In free agency, the Panthers signed edge-rusher Jaelan Phillips and linebacker Devin Lloyd to bolster their middling defense. Carolina can win with complementary football if the offense continues to trend in the right direction. In 2026, Carolina will play the AFC North and NFC North on a first-place schedule, which includes matchups against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Philadelphia Eagles, Chicago Bears, Denver Broncos, and the Seattle Seahawks. The club will have a much tougher 17-game slate than it had last year, which may lead to regression. The Panthers aren't on the same level as the league's top teams. We'll see the gap between them and division-winning clubs from the previous season. 2026 projection: 6-11

      Panthers 2026 schedule

      If someone key is hurt and your bye week helps you by not forcing you to play without them, it is at a good time.  No way to know about that ahead of time.   I would concede that with 17 games and let’s say you are playoff bound, you would love to have it late

      Turk Wharton Neck Surgery

      Hate it for him personally and hope he recovers well. But honestly, reaching an injury settlement and moving on would probably be a best case scenario for the Panthers. This signing always felt like a desperate knee-jerk reaction to losing out on Milton Williams. Williams was a logical scheme fit while Wharton just wasn't. He's best used as a rotational interior pass rushing specialist in an even front. He's way too small to play the nose in a 3-4 and he lacks the length and juice to play the end. Healthy he's a nice roster piece in the right scheme at the right price but we overpaid him to play him in the wrong scheme. The signing just never made any sense to me and I said so at the time.
