One good thing about this year not working out.

The 2010 season was all about getting younger. Jerry wanted a young and hungry team that also did not cost much money. He prob knew that we would not be very competitive in the playoffs but would put up a decent record.

We signed no FAs to speak of and went into the draft missing our 1st round pick. We signed what we thought was the fix for last year. Now we have done this before in previous drafts and always followed the rule "build from the Draft".

Now sits our 2010 team with only 1 win to show for the season. While this may seem like a horrible thing(and it is) it helps in one way. Jerry was wrong... If Fox would have pushed this team to a 7-9 record or better Jerry could have set back and looked like a genus. He would have had a competitive team and a cheep on to boot. Something that would have set a standard for years to come. Build from the draft and not spend any money because we are competitive.

Now that Jerry sees this team and how angry the fans are about this so called team. When the CBA is signed dont expect the new head coach to be handy caped and any way. Also expect the Pro scouting department to get a few more members. Owners want to make money and having a 1 to 3 win team dose not do that.

Yes! Panthers fans we will see some good FA pickups and hopefully a good draft to boot. The thing is we will also see some depth at positions we desperately needed this year. It might not be sunshine and rainbows but it def will be better then what we are seeing this year.

    • It puts more pressure on being right, I always feel trading back is the move 97/100 times. There are times where you fall in love and if that guy is only 7 spots away and the cost is only a 6th or pick swap......why not?? so long the cost is low, Im more willing to do so.  Still one of the best teams at trading back and they torn apart the Panthers on those trades; Pats. You still have to pick the players, that's what happens. In theory you should also add picks, but it does get to point of eight 3rd rounders or two late 1st and a 2nd?? I mean every draft is different, so the talent maybe not fall off a cliff after pick 50. Case by case deal, but vastly I prefer to trade back.....another curve if you trade back and the scouts/coaches have not planned for it. You have to be ready and know the spot you are trading too (everyone). Just like trading out of 1st round two weeks before the draft, that hurts your team as they have been focused on pick 10 and now its wait until pick 42....

    • IDK, just I know these mock drafts are time "wasters" and even more before FA cause that does change a huge portion of the needs. I think Panthers are in on Lloyd, but just like Milton Williams if the numbers get too high they will change course and still sign one of the lesser ILB. I've also seen reports Panthers want boom back as well, but as STer/backup.   Personally Ive put Wallance in the Ickey, Brooks zone....... Acting like he's not on the team and if he shows out during OTAs, mini, and TC GREEEAT!!! I feel Panthers need to sign at least one and draft 1-2....hell even add another Bam-like UDFA in the UD pool too. Trade is on the table, there have been many trades than past years......   Given the team history, the LB corp is saddest ever. Still the league isnt paying ILB and Panthers finally got with that trend. I do feel Evero wants a IBL that can blitz and everyone wants one able to pass cover.  I feel no matter what, Panthers will draft one in the mid rounds and add a couple in the UDFA class.
