I know you think you're being funny, but seriously, if we didn't have so many problems on defense that guy would absolutely be a candidate at 8.  He's a really, really good player and would give us a legit WEAPON at TE.  Sanders is great downfield - no doubt - but Warren actually blocks.  He's not a GREAT blocker, but he gives excellent effort.  And as a receiver . . . man, he just makes plays.

I don't see us pulling the trigger, especially with Sanders on the roster and Tremble returning.  But Warren is worthy of a top 10 pick.

Warren is BPA and we are devoid of talent in a lot of places, not just defense. Reaching for need at 8 is a horrible policy. 
 

Draft Warren. Take Skattebo in the 4th. Everyone else can be defensive picks. I want to see Tyler Warren and Cam Skattebo line up to run the Panther Prowl from the 1 yard line, with no one able to stop it, ever.

anybody got receipts on the board that wanted him here?

Wanted Ian here? Not exactly, but some thought he was a steal at the top of the 4th round.  See if this sounds familiar?  Tall, athletic, big build, but a raw prospect that needs to be coached up reach the potential he didn't achieve in college. He was meant to be a Panther...it was written in the stars.  So much so, they couldn't part ways with him until it was absolutely certain he couldn't be anything more than a TE3.

Ian Thomas has a very specific talent and anyone who has worked in the corporate world has seen it: He's an unseen survivor -- that lower end management guy who just goes meeting to meeting, coffee mug in hand, takes some notes, says little and hangs on through re-org after re-org, survives every downsizing and somehow just keeps stays on the payroll. 

Dude certainly hasn't had a Hall of Fame career, but he's hopefully generated a generational changing wealth for his family. Good luck to him in Las Vegas, may he get five more years there.

    • Great. Meet me at BOA 6am Saturday morning and we’ll get you started. 
    • considering [Dave] Canales enters Year 3 working for an impulsive owner. There’s not much room to slide backwards from an 8-9 season and 13-21 overall record. It doesn’t help that his primary job has been the development of quarterback Bryce Young, and the progress there has been inconsistent. Canales was supposed to turn the former top pick into a franchise quarterback. If that doesn’t happen by next January, the Panthers could be looking for both a new coach and quarterback." —————- The format of that doesn’t display on my iPad I had to paste it as plain text to see it so I am leaving it here to refer to… I am gonna disagree with a lot of that.  First reference is Tepper. That interview posted here a few days back gave me the impression that he is really happy with his FO. And Canales. Seat isn’t even warm as of right now. IMO.  The assertion that Canales is supposed to turn Young into a franchise QB is something I have never bought. First, how could anyone look at 2023Bryce and see a can’t miss Franchise player?  He was for sure a could miss.  I am not sure it was fix Bryce or you are both gone. Maybe that will happen The longer it drags on, I think maybe the more likely a total house cleaning could be an outcome. I mean it is only year 3 of Canales coming up. But as a couple of people like to point out, he has shown other concerning flaws that might damage his stock.  As far as the hot seat, mid season with 2-3 wins I would imagine yeah it would be pretty warm. I think a small regression to say 7 or maybe even 6 wins would be tolerated but the seat is warm for 2027. Depends on the circumstances. 
    • Or finish 7th and lose the first game to set up with the Pistons. One they have less playoff experience than the Knicks or Celtics and two cuz fug em that's why
