Being able to draft a QB in the top 5 doesn't mean you're getting a franchise QB. It means you're going to be paying a high price for an unproven kid to walk into a crappy situation where he's expected to play at a pro bowl level right out of the gate but will probably be benches withing 3 years while that team stays in the top 5 draft spots annually.

Not sure if people notice this, drafting your franchise QB in the top spots is a gamble that doesnt guarantee Jack and is more often than not going to fail.

Get the team right first so you don't waste your pick.

If we got the #1 I would want to trade it for draft assets.  We need to rebuild basically an entire defense minus Brown.  I don’t even include Horn because I don’t love the idea of paying a dude off 1 healthy season to stupid money

Ok.  I’m not saying we should be tanking which is a front office design…

I’m just saying the win today hurts us more than anything.  

we are right there  as the shittiest team in the league.  Someone wins.  Best team doesn’t win every game.  Worst team doesn’t lose every game they step on the field to play.  One random play at the end can be the difference.  We play any team 3 times and I’m taking the other team. 

I’d rather us lose.  Secure the draft pick with the most value.   We have the worst roster in the NFL despite a Giant win in Germany.  And we got nothing in the QB room.  We could use that top pick 

I agree with you, I just dont think we are going to get a top three draft pick as awesome as it would be. I would be willing to bet we get up to 6 wins this season which takes us away from one of the coveted top draft spots that we could potentially get multiple picks for. We definitely dont have us a good team we are rooting for. I just think we are going to get some more lucky bounces of the ball and lucky plays to get us a few more wins. Bryce will probably continue to look mediocre at best so im at east hoping they dont decide to roll with him as the starter next year again if so. I think we should just draft BPA all the way through because we need so many holes filled in so many areas.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By MHS831 · Posted

      His points are valid.  However, it seems a bit based on past performance and fails to take into consideration trends and conditions that might suggest growth in 2025.   For one, he breaks the team down by position and ranks them separately.  I guess that is a fair way to do it, but they are dependent upon each other. Last year, our DL sucked.  That impacts the rest of the defense.  With no internal pressure, the QBs simply step up to avoid the Edge rush.  I would have suggested that the internal DL is now featuring pass rushers and large people who can collapse the pocket.  Secondly, the LBs were not protected very well in 2024.  It is hard to see the holes and step up when a guard is in your earhole a second after the snap.  Finally, the defensive backs will be forced to make fewer tackles and they will be better in pass protection with a new and improved DL.    Canales made an interesting comment the other day, and I (from the outside looking in) feel the same way:  (paraphrasing) "I have never seen a better group of rookies."   I think the biggest concern is the learning curve.  How long before these rookies are ready?   I am bullish on this team.  I think they win 3 of their first 4 and get confident.  The get the fans behind them.  From there, they win 6 of the remaining 13.  If they stay injury free, they have an outside shot at the NFC south.

      Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.

      I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
