Maye has looked good they will win another game maybe two. I can't see us winning any more games. 

Eh....I mean he has looked better but they have also increased their scoring deficient with him(losing by roughly 80% more PPG), so I am not sure I would call that shot about them being a lock to pass us.

Make no mistake, that is a terrible team too.

I think that depends on what trading back looks like and how far. In a draft that seems to be short on elite talent, it might not be wise to trade out of the range to actually land it.

Yeah obviously there is a certain slot that makes sense as far as trading back.

 

It really depends on the offer. It's also possible we could trade back and get a solid player in return to help fill the void of missing out on the Hunter/Tmac prospects.

 

Like Chicago got DJ Moore in return for trading back so far. I can see something like that.

 

Just a hypothetical something like Maxx Crosby and future picks from the Raiders. Also depends on how far back the Raiders are to give up a elite pass rusher like Crosby.

Bro, only we are dumb enough to offer up someone like Crosby to get a potentially mediocre QB.

I get not drafting a QB and accumulating picks. But somebody's gotta play QB next year. And if it's not Dalton or Young, it's gonna have to be someone cheap. 

That's the point of trading back and collecting future high potential picks.

 

We obviously go with a bridge QB for cheap. Maybe Fields just to see him on a prove it deal. We continue to hit on our draft picks and add talent and go from there.

 

Maybe we get lucky and end up with the #1 pick. Depends on the team trading up. Sanders in Vegas is probably still a bad team. He has Bowers and not much else on offense. Raiders could potentially give us another top 5 pick plus our pick in the following draft. That's potentially 2 top 5 picks in the Arch Manning draft.

 

Maybe we get Manning and top WR prospect. Maybe that gets the Manning's interest in Manning playing in Carolina.

Raiders will be looking to make a splash. The Brady factor will be huge because that's Sanders mentor. They already have a relationship outside of football. That team is clearly looking for a franchise QB to build around.

 

Crosby is great, but he's not a QB. Vegas will be desperate to get their QB. Brady will make sure it happens. Hell Sanders was already seen taking pictures with the Raiders owner at the Vegas game a few weekends ago. It's already in play.

The only way I would want #1 is to take Ward (if he turns out to be the real deal) or trade back. 

I really don't think there is anyone in this draft worth trading up to #1 for. May end up being proven wrong but I don't want to be on the losing end of that sort of trade......again.

I am still in favor of standing pat unless a wild trade offer is made. BPA all the way. IDC what position in that top 5 range. Just make it a clear cut and relatively safe second contract, solid starter. Elite if possible.

The nice thing about being so bad… there’s almost no wrong pick. Wanna grab T-Mac? Sure we could use a high level WR. Graham? We could definitely use a force on the line next to Brown.

 

Pearce? A pass rusher would be great. Campbell? Probably not our biggest need… but we don’t have an elite LT.

Will Johnson. Could use a talent upgrade in the secondary.

agreed but their defense (also decimated by injuries) is better than our defense. I think they sneak one or two more out again some bad division opponents

It's possible. We will see how it shakes out.

I am only pushing back on the idea that we are a lock at #1. Stiffer competition than normal this year.

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      By Icege · Posted

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
