Fans would not do great in free agency, however sadly a lot of fans would do better than many front offices in the draft by simply using something like Brugler’s draft guide. It is shocking how bad many front offices are in the draft. The overthinking and over analyzing is at its peak.

It might actually be harder to fail as badly as they have than it is to be simply mediocre.

I said that with Fitterer. If you looked through his picks and the trades where he gave away picks, you would actually wonder if he was a plant from Seattle intentionally trying to make us a worse team.

In the past 7 years we wouldn’t have had to TBH. We would have been better off realizing we lost Cam, Luke and many others. It was time to do an actual rebuild and save the cap space so we could keep our “good” (huddle consensus) draft picks like extending Trey Smith and Creed Humphrey instead of having cap space to burn since the long snapper and TMJ didn’t work out. Also, have enough cap space to keep some offensive weapons like CMC and Moore because we don’t have to trade up for a QB or didn’t have to “recover” picks lost in poo trades.

One other note here is that, the consensus huddle would have jumped at the chance to get two 1sts and a 2nd for Burns. That alone would have been the best FA/trade move made in the history of the Panthers. It is 100% indisputable fact that a huddle consensus GM, from 2018 to 2024, would have done way better and we’d have a playoff contender right now. Maybe not a SB/NFC winning team but likely the best team in the NFC South rather than a hey we lost close games to the teams in the SB even though our D set a single season points allowed record.

but we stole Terrance Marshall from New Orleans

Scary how bad the TMJ and Mingo picks were and how similar the XL pick seems to be. We’ve seen how Coker and Thielen and heck even Diontae were able to have great games with Bryce and yet we seem to draft these RAC, big, athletic projects instead of guys like Downs and McConkey. It’s almost bizarre but it seems like we got the worst of the Seattle brain trust that just want to find the next Wilson or Metcalf or ignore the OL until it physically hurts. It takes too long even when we finally do something right and then you realize we’ve got a good OL but now we give up 30 points per game.

This draft better be a multi-bagger.

BPA in the first round gives the best chance of getting a potential all pro player. All pro players, regardless of the position they play, elevate the entire team. 

Weak on d line? An all pro safety and LB will completely change the complexion. 

Weak at RB and WR. All pro center. Boom. Top 10 running game and a QB that keeps the chains going. 

Draft out of need is an over-reach the majority of the time. 

It doesn’t matter if you draft at a position you’re already strong at. Any all-pro player raises the play of the entire team. 

In the first round, it’s usually pretty damn obvious who that guy is, but this team’s kryptonite is the obvious guy. 

Hurney picked Kuechly when the team already had Jon Beason. How’d that work out?

I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc.

So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛

Yeah, this is called selective memory. Go back and look at the draft threads over the past decade. It's about 95% better decisions than our FO.

But, by all means, continue to be cucked by poor decision makers. It's clearly working so well for us.

Huddle hive is no means perfect or even great. The point is they would be better than whatever the fug has been taking place the last 6 years. MUCH better. 

 

Plus Im sure it would no include every member, but the best. 

 

This is soo sad..

That's the part the copium crowd are missing. The fact that Huddle consensus is leaps and bounds better than the Panthers FO isn't a point of pride, it's fuging rock bottom.

What did I list that was untrue?

I keep hearing "the good/smart ppl" but uh... who would that be? Hopefully not the same folks that were screaming to ship Bryce off for a scratch off ticket and some jenkem. 😮

And there was a looooooot of them...

Have you not seen the last 6 years of brain drain here? Knowledgeable posters have bailed in favor of other hubs.

Instead of DOGE, you could call it DOPE though. It'd be oddly fitting.

Bryce hasn't proven to be a franchise QB yet, all he has done is earned another chance to prove himself.  The consensus was to draft Bryce over CJ Stroud, I still think that was the wrong move and Bryce still has to prove otherwise.

This smells of Tepper cuckism.

But, by all means, don't let anyone get between you and the penis you so desire.

Damn if only players could play for 50 years.  We could accumulate some real dogs.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.

      Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
