Our all time greats at every position

In trying to keep with some positive vibes this AM, list your all time Panthers greats at each position. By this, you get one choice at each spot. No Smith, Moose and DJ, x 2 more. No, you get 1 for each slot. You do get WR1 and WR2. You do get RB and FB. Guys need to have started at least a year so no Butker or the like.

I honestly feel like most positions are basically layups.

Agree with all of these....was just thinking about how many of these were Hurney picks.

He pretty much nailed it. My only argument may be punter and Sauerbrun (spelling) but only because he was juiced up and didn't give a damn about going and laying a hard ass hit.

He just got caught doing it. So much stuff blurs the lines these days that I’m indifferent. But he was the best we’ve had.

In defense of my punter pick, if you look at Hekker his PG averages basically smoke any punter in our franchise history. If we are lucky enough to keep him for 3-4 more seasons, he may own most of our franchise punting records.

 

Also, I will say that in MOST positions my #2 guy was a worthy #1 overall guy. I guess it's kind of a shame how bad we have been overall as a franchise with some of the insane talent we have toted. Maybe not San Diego Chargers level of talent squandered but definitely top 5 in the NFL.

Hekker's better, but Saeurbrun will always be the MVP in my heart.  I loved that we had a knucklehead punter that would try to tackle people lol.

I pretty much agree with this with the addition of Muhammad for WR2.

I do think Jayce Horn is probably already the best CB in franchise history in terms of ability. But I understand him not earning the spot yet.

Oh yeah, so many more were they just weren't caught. He must have not kissed the right ass at that point. He was so much fun to even watch punt and he had attitude in everything he did which I loved

    • Boy we agree on the dink and dunk. I don’t want to watch that kind of football.  I mean okay if you win with it, it could be tolerable but it feels claustrophobic, constrained, limited, boring.  But for some reason I love a smash mouth heavy run game that wins the LOS and gets the backs to the second level.  
    • I am really sorry  that  happened to you they say to never meet your sports heroes i have friends who met  mickey mantle when they were young and he was a belligerent alcoholic at the time  ut broke their hearts  I had the opportunity to meet and spend  time with Cam Newton.     He was the polar opposite of Steve Smith and his public image.   Polite.  Honest when asked question.  You could tell the things that mattered to him and the things that  didnt. The disappointments in himself and the things that hurt him  those qualities make him quite a good interviewer too  i genuinely liked him   Im sure as young, rich, sports hero, he has not been a choir boy but there is goodness in him  the time i met him i took one of my friends with me from the west coast. She said she didn't like him and wasn’t enthusiastic about meeting him.  She left loving him   No one can say anything bad about ‘her Cam’ anymore 
    • Agree about oline. They've tried their best to improve that area. But honestly, has it looked like the most expensive oline in the NFL to you? Not just with Bryce. With Dalton's one game where they almost got the old man killed.  Also YAC shouldn't always be hitting a guy in stride while he's running full speed. Pickens killed us after the catch and those weren't all hit-in-stride plays. I remember a play in Miami when a guy caught a 5 yards curl and took it like 30-40 yards to the house. We don't have that in Carolina. Horn might be the closest thing to that but he can't get significant PT for whatever reason. If Bryce keeps trusting his receivers to make plays, I think he'll become more consistent. Seemed like he only trusted TMac. And force feeding one receiver isn't sustainable. Defenses will start to blanket him and take him out of the game. And yeah, keep taking deep shots. I hate all that dink and dunk football. Hate it.
