I cannot join the dog pile for Morgan on this. Im a 100% sucker for recent former 1st rounder at bargain bin prices.

Maybe he hates buffalo, most people living there do. I know this Mcderp knows DBs as well as anyone and at the time they used a 1st on Elm. He's been in the dog house since.....but a environmental change can have big effect. Odds are low and he's cheap, that's why the price should be low(idk with other teams), but the reward could be a 8 year career as a starting CB. Or he gets cut like most 6th and 7th rounder do....

I mean it could work out in our favor. I'm not saying it's impossible. I just don't know this is the ideal place for any reclamation projects. Let's rewind real quick about our other trade acquisitions of young talent we hoped to turn into gold. Robbie Anderson CJ Henderson Laviska Shenault. That's fool me three times right there. And at some point if you work in the Panthers front office you have to adjust to reality that if this franchise is going to alter trajectory in a big way it's going to be by drafting very very well for at least a few years. That's just my POV though.

I was fooled on CJ Henderson and Laviska. Remember the Baker Mayfield trade for a 5th and they paid for nearly half, if only the Panthers had decent coaches at the time....it should have worked and he signed for very cheap 30 million per for 3 years.

I do not believe you should stop trying this method cause a couple didn't work out. The cost was low and Henderson played 2.5 seasons for 3 million each season...thats cheap even if he didn't fix his mental problems here. If Tyree Wilson and a 5th could be had for 3rd, Id do that in a nano second. What would you say?

For sure Panthers need to draft better, I feel they are the worst drafting team over the last 6 years. They are not even lucky. Dan should replace all of them, he's got their reports over these past years, fire them and use teppers wallet to bring in real proven scouts and profit....

Trying to give Juan a break...

 

Dallas Goedert could be had for a 4th even a future one-

If they want a fourth, we could give them an early fifth.  He is 30 and have about 500 yards last year in a running offense.

This is my backup plan if Evan Engram doesn't workout. I know about the injuries....but Dallas is good blocker and good pass catcher.

What an interesting quote from Jeremiah.  As much as I despise App St. dudes, (kidding--some good people), I value his opinions.

 

 I thought with the tremble, Corbett, and Dalton.... the funds where too low for many more moves....... and I wanted to avoid the overpay period........ Tepper don't care it seems, Brandt and Dan in attack made?!?!?!

DG posted and then Jeremiah........brother something has took place, they know...... AND we have to wait....... I cannot think of much outside safety(ewwwww)......must be a trade and couple other players.

 

Trey a Panther??

 

hmmm...

Have to go defense heavy that way we don't need to reach in the draft.  I expect an Edge, corner and DT.  Not necessarily tomorrow, but among first positions addressed when regular FA hits high gear.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
