This is what we need to do this offseason

Upgrade our secondary

right now we really need to set our eyes on Asmougha, he can do wonders for our team. As a Panthers fan I have to admit our pass defence is was horrible in the last half of the season last year.

Upgrade our D-Line

Knowing Pep is most likely going to leave Al Haynseworth would be a great player to come in and be a great help. We only saw a little bit of Hilee Taylor this season but I liked the way he played when he was out there before he got injured, something to think about.

Upgrade our OLB

This is probably less of a concern than our other two but our linebackers are not really good a big reason why our D started struggling our ILB is great but maybe we can get a better player to play on the opposite side of Davis.

Start thinking about playing Jarrett more

This kid is a beast and he loves to play football we need to think about putting him in way more especially on third downs were he is his best.

Draft a QB with our first round pick we will get from trading Pep

I know Jake is going to be our starter next year and probably the year after that but we need to draft a qb now because Jake is becoming old and it will be good to get one now than to draft one in two years because he will have to time to practice and train with our team and when its time to step in he will be ready, like Matt Cassell and Aaron Rodgers. Sanchez would be good here.

Fire Trgo

We will never have a defense like the Steelers and Ravens with him.

That's what I think we need to do to help our franchise

My offseason

Tag Peppers, trade him for 1st and 3rd or more, no less

Resign Gross keep our oline intact

Go after Jovan Haye or Hayneswoth

Resign Frank O

Draft

1. DT/DE

2. RG Herman Johnson, I want this guy bad

3. DT

3. CB

4. WR/KR someone f*ckin fast, we need another guy who can provide some spark

5. RB- to replace Goings, or we could take Birmingham off the ps

6. FB

No way Fox and Hurney get a QB in the draft. Besides, the fact that they like the QB's we already have, they have made it clear that they do not like drafting and developing QB's.

I think it would be a HUGE boost to our defense if we could go out and get Asomugha in FA. We should get a first round pick for Peppers and we need to use that to help out the D-line.

    • When I arrived at college, I was 18, not too much younger than some of these draft picks.  It was not a huge school, but there were guys on the team who were 21, 22, 23....playing ahead of me.  I was seventh on the depth chart.  Those guys have been through a few seasons, were stronger, more knowledgeable.  I was a better raw player than some of them, but those other factors matter.  As I grew stronger, more familiar with the playbook, and learned what it was like to play in college, I gradually improved and with that, I rose up the depth chart.  It took most of my freshman year for the light to come on.  Had the coach thrown me into the starting lineup day 1, I would have probably failed.    And that was college.  So I agree with you based on my experience on a much lower level.  Frankly, I think that is why so many kids drafted to fill huge gaps bust.  The teams are desperate.  Anyone who looks to fill vacancies in the starting lineup through the draft is desperate.  You draft depth to develop.  For this reason, I say, "Let Walker start for a while."  Maybe Brazzell can be our WR 4.  Throw Hunter into a rotation and ask him to do one or two things.  Freeling needs some strength and he needs to work on run blocking.
    • I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.  
    • Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.
