Rhule had good drafts? 

We haven’t had a “good” draft since 2017, but Rhule didn’t completely fug up a draft and put us multiple years behind with a single trade and incorrect QB.

Anyway, I was making that point because that guy was basically trying to act like 2023 was going to be a great draft because we were making moves without Rhule. Oops!

This was only posted in this thread because @CRAwas wanting a Matt Rhule GIF.  

But yeah Fitt sucked as well, I think everyone agrees on that at this point.

the Matt Rhule shrug gif is the best thing any actual Panther HC(I don't include interims) has done for us since Ron was fired.  And now I can't find one that is huddle compatible

I think you are missing my point. I know why you posted that. I was laughing at Goaty_Szn throwing shade on Rhule in March of 2023 as if we were making great moves. In reality, we made enough moves to be the worst team in the league and make us long for the Rhule, Marty and Teddy.

I think the most competitive team we have fielded in the Tepper era....was actually the Matt Rhule/Teddy Panthers.   Most would I think would say Steve Wilks...but reality is Wilks was limited to only playing 1970s era ball against bad teams.   They were matchup specific in terms of being competitive. 

That 2020 couldn't close the deal but they were pretty competitive all season long and was the best offense in the Tepper era.   And that featured a green OC who didn't even drill redzone and a checkdown QB.

It’s also his most recent team. The further away we got from the Ron years, the worse we became.

Yeah the 2020 team lost 8 games by a touchdown or less. They were even somewhat competitive in early 2021.  After the Washington game loss during Cam's homecoming the Rhule era collapsed.

I think the biggest issue for David Tepper.....is his best offensive draft pick to date.....is an average, RB by committee caliber RB.  As in, he is backup RB in the NFL. 

If that's your best offensive draft pick in a half decade.....your team is going to fail.

I would say Brady Christensen is actually our best offensive pick, which is almost as sad.

      For the Cap gurus..

      By CmC2k · Posted

      I like the approach Morgan takes in free agency where we fill holes with at least serviceable players and use the draft for BPA. So, I expect us to bring in a Safety, 1 really good LB and 1 kinda so so vet LB in case they lose faith in Wallace, an edge rusher, and with ickey's injury I think we will be the team that overpays for a LT like Rasheed Walker with the plan to move him to RT depending on Ickey's health and how long Moton wants to play.

      Mike Kaye’s take: 2026 NFL free agency predictions

      By csx · Posted

      Look at Rashid Saheed contract for 2024. He was more productive than Coker but probably a good reference. I think it was 1 year 5.2 million.

      For the Cap gurus..

      By CmC2k · Posted

      I expect the same strategy as we did last year. 3 year deals for guys around 25 to 28 years old and have the cap number be lower in 2026 and back load the contracts for 2027 and 2028 when our cap space is 100 million in 2027 and 360 million in 2028. With the years of terrible drafting this team had under Rhule and Fitterer and the lack of picks from all the panic QB trades has made it where we have few long-term contract commitments on the roster.  I'm sure there's probably some restructures and cuts we can make to give ourselves some more room this year if we need it but overall, our cap situation is in a good spot under Dan and Brandt.  I think we'll be pretty big spenders again this year. With us making the playoffs and being in a weak division I see Morgan being pretty aggressive this offseason.
