People need to stop obsessing about draft picks. If you have a good player sign them and cut all the poo ones.

Thats how you build a good football team and not be stuck in rebuilding for 7 years…

Our team is the worst in the league.  We don't have many good players that are worth overbidding on for a second contract.  You do what the Lions did.  Auction off players for picks and build a new core through the draft.  Chuba is good, but looks better because of our pricey OL.

I both agree and disagree. You do build your team through the draft. But you don’t let go of players who have proven to be great and trade them for a 5th round pick that turns into a JAG.

That’s how you end up with a bunch of practice squad and JAGs on defense on your way to the worst performing unit in NFL History. 

No one is saying overpay…but if you have great players you do have to PAY and hope they aren’t like luvu who just wants to gtfo.

Who is our great player you are wanting us to pay? We paid DB who can be a cornerstone player you build around. I agree with paying great players. DJ isn’t a great player though. He is a good WR2 who also isn’t the best for a locker room. Throwing teammates under the bus, giving up on routes. These aren’t the type of players you extend while struggling.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.

      Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise

      Maybe faked was too strong of a word.  "Milked" may be the better way to call it.
