Definitely going to be a lot worse next year, but we all knew this would happen. Should be a fringe playoff team and 2025-26 will be a big improvement for us 

Not too worried about it.  I don't think the drop off is going to be as bad as some think. Remember we went farther in 2019 did we did last year when we were supposedly stacked for a cup run.

The Panthers fan crossover is the issue. Too many are shell shocked from being Panthers fans. 

The sky isn't falling. We are still stocked with talent. If we don't win a Cup next season the sky will still remain where it is. 

We have a young core and a deep farm system.

I think FUS forces his way onto the roster Ala Jarvis...

I agree there is way too many Panthers esque the world is ending posters right now.

They have publicly stated they are not done...

If they resign Jarvy, they have less than 4m in cap based on reports. They wouldn’t have enough to sign Necas, Drury, and Coghlan. 

so they have to do something with KK or Kuz. 
 

if they just sign Jarvis and Drury, think they have 2.75m in cap space. 
 

hence my comment that they are done pending one of those to be moved.

I think the difference is the other teams in the East in 2019 were nowhere near as deep and talented as they are now. Tampa, NYR, Boston, FL, Tampa, & Toronto are all very good and teams like NJ (and to a lesser extent NYI, Wash, and Pitt) are pretty good. Luckily we aren't in the Atlantic and "should" make the playoffs, but we aren't a legit threat to win the Stanley Cup next year IMO

Dude, just chill and take a breath. No one wins a Cup on the first day of free agency any more than Super Bowls are won on the first day of free agency.

Let it play out.

I was kidding my guy. Trying to have some fun with it with your word play on “Panthers Fan”.  More or less making fun of myself. 
 

I actually think we will be just fine.

I just want Necas gone, he already has killed at least two trades by not wanting to sign extensions with the team he was being traded to. One with Nashville for the fourth pick. 
 

he obviously doesn’t want to be here and only wants to go somewhere where he’s going to be the top line center.

looks like arbitration and we keep him - I'm ok with that, let him prove himself if he wants to be considered elite. what does this do to the cap space?

If the arbitration is anything over 3m aav then something needs to happen with Jarvis and his contract or one of KK or Kuz needs to be moved. Jarvis is going to be around 6-7m aav unless they do a short bridge deal.

Seth Jarvis isnt even eligible for arbitration yet 🙄

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
