Knowing us, probably trade up to #3 to get him.

@LinvilleGorge will delete the forum entirely in a rage fit.

 

I would support that decision.

 

FYI- I wanted to do that after the BY pick.....(just for a couple of minutes)///

 

Edit- I feel there are some that wouldn't even want Stewart at 57, I'd like to see the others, but that's where I'm ready for the heat.... even if they used the 8th on a edge or DE.

No one should be the least bit surprised by this organization doing powerfully stupid stuff. You don't accidentally achieve the worst record in the NFL since 2018, it takes consistently awful decisions to pull that off. And then the cherry on top of the dog poo sundae is that every year when we're closing in on a top 5 pick, here comes a couple of meaningless moral victories to fug that up. I'd be curious what percentage of our wins in the Tepper era have come when we're mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.  Feels like most of them with most of the rest coming when we might not be mathematically eliminated yet but we might as well be because we're basically going to have to run the table while other contenders absolutely faceplant which is basically the same thing as being eliminated. LOL

Listen, take solace in the fact that we would inevitably fug up the higher picks anyway.

Not that its needed, but another layer to this mess is the NFC south has been the worst division during the tepper. Soooooo the worst team in the worst division.........just sad...so sad..... the fuging YUCS just win 9-10 games and that's all it takes for the NFC south. You have to try and be this bad. Plus Ive been asking there's no extra cap space and barely any talent??? That cannot happen without bad decisions and poor drafting. 

I still don't see a winning NFC south record either, I think the max is a spilt for Panthers.

In fact I want to Panthers record over in the NFC south over the years....hmmm

It's true. 

That's why I really stopped caring as much about the draft position at the end of the year. Under Tepper the evaluations have been the issue, not the position. 

Until we get that fixed, it ain't gonna matter a lick.

If we take Stewart at 8....whelp.....drink up, it's gonna be another long season/offseason until we can hope for another purge.

I can't for the life of me figure out what people are seeing in Stewart on tape. If he can't just simply run around or through the OL in front of him, he's cooked. I don't see any actual moves. If he doesn't win on sheet athleticism at the point of contact he's nullified. I don't know if I've ever seen him actually beat a block once engaged. Then, even if he just blasts right past or through the OL and has a clean path to the ball it's like he's blind. He can't find the ball. He's like a bottle rocket. Yeah, he takes off fast but he's just going to go fast in a general direction. There will be no course correction. I watched quite a bit on him just because of his perceived draft evaluation and because of the wild discrepancy between measurables and production. Watch him play and it all makes since. He's a god tier physical specimen who just happens to be playing football. I don't see a football player. People need to stop falling in love with the potential and start realizing why the potential isn't translating.

If they draft Stewart at 8th, I will ask @Mr. Scot for a list of GMs and might as well ask for HC too.....

      Joe Person: Panthers will let Cade Mays test the free agent market

      By PanthersNCSU · Posted

      If Mays has a market, which it seems he will, he's gone.  I think we bring back Nijman for too much money to be cautious at LT, Corbett comes back cheap since he's already said he wants to live in CLT, and Christensen eventually gets re-signed with the hopes he can be depth at some point.  Draft an OT, draft a C. The OL might be rough for stretches next year, but time to get some youth there to prepare for Bryce in 2027 or the next QB. I still think we compete for the division in 2026 and can go back to the playoffs unlike the oddsmakers in Vegas, but the *real* year is 2027 IMO. Either Bryce has proven it and he's the QB looking at his 2nd contract, or we have the ready-made team for the next rookie QB or Vet we trade for.

      Joe Person: Panthers will let Cade Mays test the free agent market

      By Leeroy Jenkins Ph.D. · Posted

      The Panthers are going to have a lot more flexibility in free agency than it looks like at first glance. On paper, the cap space might seem tight, but there are several obvious restructure candidates that could easily free up significant room. Between converting base salaries into signing bonuses and spreading cap hits out over future years, Carolina could realistically clear $60–80 million in additional space if they wanted to be aggressive. That kind of flexibility means they’re not stuck. They can extend key young pieces, add help along the offensive line, upgrade the defense, and still be strategic about value signings. Letting Cade Mays test the market makes sense from a leverage standpoint. If he’s willing to come back on a team-friendly deal, great, continuity on the line matters. But if his market price climbs, the Panthers should absolutely explore upgrades. The point is, this front office isn’t boxed in. With cap maneuvering and smart structuring, they have the ability to be active players in free agency rather than sitting on the sidelines like we are used too.
