Oh great another Brandon Smith. Feels like nothing has changed in the war room since Tepper took over

Yep exact same sh!t

”building through the draft” sounds great in theory but we’re once again just pissing away picks. 

This team would be much better trading picks for proven talent. There were actual people here who didn’t want to trade 33 or 39 for Brandon Aiyuk.

Instead we got a RB and LB. The most Panthers draft ever

right, because no other teams have RBs and LBs.

This guy is a pure physical specimen who plays fast and angry. He needs to get better at the mental part of the game and improve his ability to shed blocks and read plays, but he has all the tools to be an awesome LB for us. If we could somehow get Luke to take a break from his hunting and fishing trips and have him mentor this kid that would be perfect.

I have not seen Trevin Wallace play, and I bet 99% of people complaining haven’t seen him play… but don’t let stand in the way of you complaining 

I am going way out on a limb here--I bet Morgan knows more about LB than Huddlers with a bad attitude.

I think that you're mixing up RAS for upside. We presumably have good good coaches, and we certainly have people closely associated with the franchise and actually closely associated with the GM that know a little something about playing WR and LB. Canales was a WRs coach for goodness sakes. You pick the guys with the upside and coach them up. 

That's the same argument I heard for the last two staffs and the guys we drafted back then.

Unfortunately, until that actually happens, I am going to be very skeptical.

I don't think they've taken BPA at each pick, which has lead to some reaching, but the 2nd and 3rd rounders are definitely football players who also happen to be hyper athletic. 

Legette - yeah, that's a strange one for me. 

Yep. We apparently are anti-BPA. Plus all the trading up and down to get guys that seem like reaches.......boy that all seems really familiar.....

That's totally fair. But like I've been saying: it's a new day.

Sounds like the LB or DE we drafted last year with one of the CMC picks. “We love our selves ah good project don’t we bahs”.

the weird thing is that most of these places have him pegged as a 3rd rounder

the crime is that we didn’t take a guy from their Alma mater

Show me recent situations where we thought we were smarter than the rest of the league and it worked out. I can show you dozens of examples of that not being the case.

I am not going to applaud hubris. Especially when it has nothing to back it up.

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
