Hubbard gets injured, then what? You can’t go into an NFL season with only one reliable RB

You can literally use the injury excuse for any position.

 

What happens if Bryce gets injured?

What happens if Horn gets injured?

RB is a position where you're expected to have more than one player taking snaps. QB is not.

Good points, we need depth at both positions

If you drafting for depth with a limited roster your GM is not doing something right.

 

We need starters on defense multiple. Drafting for backups is DUMB! You only do that when you have a stacked roster. We aren't the Eagles in terms of talent.

Moving the goalpost. Any player can get injured.

He didn’t move the goal posts.  You need to play multiple RBs in every single game you play.   It’s not a backup in reality, it’s part of a RB committee.   You need that in the NFL.

Brooks is a 2nd pick that this team Lit on fire. Dude is useless to this team for another year, unfortunately. A second rounder who won’t even play until year 3? I hope they learned from that. 

Restock RB with 4+ rounders. Big mo fos. An O line of goons will make any bruising back look like like a pro bowler. Just need someone to move the chains.

I understand that my friend. Listen carefully, I think we can find a backup RB in FA or sign a undrafted RB. 

 

What is wrong with my option?

 

I want Tmac and a all defense draft. If we can't get Tmac just go all defense.

RB in the draft comes with higher potential and is likely cheaper.  Especially if he turns out to be good and you want to keep him around.   Money/cap can go to harder to find positions.

position is devalued which makes RBs in that range have higher odds of actually becoming real NFL players vs other spots in that range.  It’s just a good positional bargain in the draft.

We been investing in the RB position for years. Get a undrafted RB. Chuba is the real deal he doesn't need some elite RB to back him up. Just my opinion on the situation.

 

What if our current backup RB rushes for 100 yards Sunday? I mean we writing him off after 1 bad game.

I mean Dan Morgan talking about some DAWGS on the team, Cam Skattebo fits that to a T after what I watched. 

We need Skattebo on 4th and 1 badly.  Dude acceleration is insane and he’s like a bowling ball.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By Carolina Cajun · Posted

      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.
