We aren't drafting either of the QBs and Travis Hunter will be first non-QB drafted.  So we are looking at ER1, DT1, OT1, CB2 or WR1.  Still not bad, not bad at all. Yes, I think Hunter is a better CB than WR.

We get any of these players and I’d consider that a win, and we should be in position to get one of them. I see us losing to ATL and TB.

I firmly believe Mike Jackson and Demani Richardson are showing we dont need to spend our first rounder on the secondary. Our 1st round pick really should be Dline /Edge/Pass Rusher . Unless Canales just falls in love with Tet McMillan I guess.

RIP draft position. It’s insane how many poo teams there are this year. Unbelievably unlucky to have 4 wins and be near the bottom of the top 10 

It's not a top heavy draft, man.  Trust me, if it were I 'd be peeved about today's win.  When a two way player is the top of the board, it says two things: the guy is talented, also there's no generational stud at any other position.

I respectfully disagree. This win could knock us out of Carter, Graham, Johnson, T-Mac. All players that would help this team tremendously

Did yous see where Atlanta is expected to cut Cousins?  Lol!

Cousins is probably about done. Atleast he got one final big check out of it. It was always going to be a tall task for him or any player coming back from an achilles injury at that age. 

I see him getting another shot somewhere else, though. Just don’t know where, and he’s going to be a teams bridge

If a team signs Cousins to be their starter that GM should be fired on the spot.

Wow, the Raiders just royally screwed up. By winning, they just let two other QB needy teams jump ahead of them.  Yes, the Titans are likely in the QB market.  Deshaun Watson will not play another down for the Browns.

Sanders and Ward will be gone.

These guys could be good but still have red flags. Carter for example is weak in run defense and this was his first year playing edge. T-Mac will come down to the combine and he would disappear in a lot of games. I feel like these guys would be reaches in the top 5 in most drafts.

It just an uninspiring draft all together. I really haven't seen a prospect that jumps out as a must have player. It may turn out to be full of nfl level players but as of right now I'm just not seeing it.

Not impressed with Carter or T-Mac in the top 5 either. Raiders will have to trade up for a chance at either QB. And I’d go with Mykel Williams from Georgia over Carter. We need an Edge that can also boost our putrid run defense.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
