Once upon a time, I said the same thing about Luke Kuechly

Well at least luke had his ACL.

It comes down to lots of factors and i dont believe in forcing picks. Theres a huge hole at the OLB, more than one. Its clowny and street guys. That had hubbard, sanders, and blackshear. 

It honestly felt the 2024 draft was for 2025. early showcase for the shaq replacement is coming soon....

I need to see Brooks healthy and on the field for a few games and I'll begin the analysis of the pick.

Until then all I can do is wait.

Arguments for having gone another direction with that pick can be made. But I would argue as of right now looking at the overall state of our defense as a whole another rookie on the d line would have a negligible impact at this point in time. We'd still be getting lit up.

I honestly thought he was the best RB in the draft. Just carolina was not player for him, given the needs and value. The RB is lower than the safety market, derrick henry was signed for 2 years at 16 million. Many others cases, but panthers used a prime spot on guy that may not play half the year with 3 other guys already here. just bad management.

It only makes sense if he goes prime jamaal charles.

Which D-lineman would you have picked at that spot that's making a big difference on his team right now?

kris jenkins tackled hubbard with cobrett and he only had one hand on the 4th down GL stop....

Marshawn Kneeland was the pick for me and thats with keeping the two 5th rounders and staying at 52. 

kool-aid if you remain at 39th.

Kneeland has 8 tackles 0 sacks. Kool-aid isn't even starting, Jenkins has 2 tackles 0 sacks. Our guy hasn't even played and is making the same impact of the guys you named lol. Getting the best RB in the draft but having to wait 5-6 weeks for him to play isn't bad at all.

    • Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers. 
    • Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production. 
    • I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
