If you don’t care so much, why do bother watching the draft and come in the threads? You’re acting like I don’t know that a team has its own ranking. It’s ok to disagree and think we passed on guys that we shouldn’t have. I actually enjoy the draft and I’ve got a great memory so I’ll remember the guys we passed over and check in to see if they pop up as successful or not.

Also, I’ll be honest and maybe you will agree and maybe you won’t, but I think this team has royally fuged up by going for their needs instead of BPA. Miami is a playoff team and even after they took an edge in the 1st, they saw value in another edge in the 5th that they didn’t have in for a visit. I don’t think we’ve done that at all which leads to missing on solid players like Tre Smith a couple drafts ago. I think that our going for needs has been because our GMs have thought we were close even as our 2013-2017 playoff teams were basically whittled away. It has absolutely contributed to us going from 4 out of 5 playoffs to a 2-15 team that was lucky to barely win both games. I liked some of the picks today and hope they do well, but the way we finished up was reminiscent of the past 6 drafts. We’ll see but I’ll remember Limmer, Jones, McLahlan and Kamara to see if we might have had one of those mega drafts that we so sorely needed. Adios and you enjoy as well.

So I'm not allowed to watch it and discuss it unless I'm obsessed with it? Got it. I think I will stick around anyway.

Hell, man, I've seen enough UDFAs over the years here that I'm not about to believe any one of them is going to be significant. Philly was as good as it ever got, and I had to argue with people about his status as JAG. Remember KeyGarrett and that other tall dude whose name I can't even remember (I think it started with Mc). LOL 

Norwell? Addison? Remmers? We had 3 starters and one solid contributor (might be forgetting others) on that 2015 team that were UDFAs.

UDFAs can be valuable. We just have done nothing with them in Hurney 2.0 and Fitt. We did a lot with them before that. Hurney 2.0 was mining the XFL of all things. I’ll never get that over college UDFAs.

I could have been more clear. I'm specifically talking receivers.

You can do whatever you want. Let’s be honest, you were the one telling me how to act and what I seemingly didn’t know. I’ve always liked the draft even with as poo as we’ve been the part 6 years.

I'm just telling you how it works. What you do with that information is up to you. You can always ignore it if you think it's useless.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
