We Haven't Drafted a Defensive Player in R1 Since 2021.

This has absolutely nothing to do with our defensive struggles.

At any given time, even a great team that is good at drafting has probably 5-7 of their own first round draft picks still on the roster.  You need a lot more than good first round picks to build a good offense or defense, let alone a full team.

The Panthers have also let players go to other teams that were higher draft picks. Burns, Jackson, Chin, Gross Matos all left after 2023. Perhaps letting these go was correct but the point is even when they do draft they either don’t develop them or they pick the wrong guys.
 

Back during the last SB run, the core of the team were high draft picks in defense and offense. Most of those drafted were Hurney picks and this was a big discussion that Gettleman got to the SB with mostly Hurney players. 
The Tepper years have been a myriad of coaching changes, GM changes, scheme changes and player changes with no consistency. Let’s hope both Teppers will allow their football people to make the football decisions going forward and this sinking ship will start floating again.

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
