Team is looking good for next season

Part of me thinks it will be an opportunity for the Panthers to sell while his stock is higher in the offseason and go get who they want.

I'm not dead certain that'll be the right move, but I won't get upset if that's how they decide to proceed.

Have you watched a single game all season?

 

The defense sucks at tackling. That's a talent issue not a coaching issue. You blaming Evero because they took his 2 best pass rushers and best defensive player is crazy.

 

He has nothing to work with besides Horn. It's why people are screaming a all defense draft.

 

Cmon you gotta process this man.

I blame Evero because he is overrated. Vance Joseph created the defense in Denver that he took credit for. Wilks ran the ball down his throat and Darnold had a 103.8 rtg. 

Last year we were decent in yards allowed, and horrible in everything else. Only reason? We kept giving up good field position. 

He's had his choice of players to bring in since his scheme is so "complicated." Maybe he should stop trying to be so fancy like running Cover 4 on 3rd and 1 earlier and focus on fundamentals like tackling.

These years of Eric Washington, Phil Snow, and Evero must have gotten you confused on what a real defense looked like. Go back and watch the McDermott and Wilks years- this dude is soffffT.

Name me a good player on this defense besides Horn, I'll wait...

We don't know who is good and bad because the clown drops DEs into coverage and can't show 30 year old men how to tackle.

He literally schemes the opposing offense open.

The draft is simple for me.

 

Draft Tmac and go all defense for the rest of the draft.

The problem is, pass rushers go in the first round.  That's what we need the most.  The success rate after the first round has a huge drop off.

I have Tmac rated higher than any pass rusher in this draft.

 

Always go best player with your 1st round pick. Drafting for need with a top 5 pick is just dumb imo.

My conundrum right now is, even if we have the top pick, I'm not sure if any QB in this year's draft class excites me. Too much questions with them for me to be comfortable handing the reigns for now.

Even in FA, the QB class doesn't look enticing.

At this point, the smarter move may be to see if Bryce can hit his pre-draft potential and start looking more like a franchise QB consistently while building up our weak points on defense. 

Just not confident in the upcoming QB draft class this year would do any better than current Bryce, and that's with me questioning if Young can keep up this level of play.

    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
