Do you think the panthers will not budge with #1 pick?

I know JR said he wants a face to the franchise and will probably not trade #1 pick. So with all this talk of Harbaugh possibly going to SF and other teams wanting him (Luck) real bad. Do you think JR can withstand the pressure of every pick in the world being thrown at you, just so you can possibly draft your franchise QB and be set for 10+years?

I know they said that. But come draft day and with many teams wanting him and throwing picks at you like candy. I hoping they say no to everything. Maybe they will have Luck locked up contract wise before the draft?

If they're smart they'll negotiate a contract ahead of time. Even if we do lock up Luck before the draft we can still trade him though.

I think we keep the pick. We cannot dump that pick AND sign a coach from the same mold as the one he just fired and continue telling everyone that we're committed to winning IMO.

I can (and will continue to) justify going with a defensive coach as long as the coordinators are good and allowed to coordinate. I can justify a supposed lack of interest in Harbaugh (who wasn't coming here anyway apparently) because despite our fervor it's not in our FOs blood to hire a college coach.

I will not be able to turn the other cheek to dealing away the #1 pick if Luck declares or not being active in FA to address areas that could not be addressed in the draft. Not that my individual opinion matters but I think that would justify everyone in the national media who has thought badly of the franchise.

Depends what the 49ers offer. We'd be very stupid not to at least listen to their offer.

Hurney wouldn't consider or even hear out offers for DWill or Smitty this year. Probably will go the same route here, even if some team is lined up to offer us their 1st, 2nd and 3rd round picks for the next 5 years.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
