Just meh for me. More so when I look at what they have already done this offseason. Take a freaking OT over him or Graham. Neither are bad but neither really get past meh for me.

My friend the entire draft is meh.

A lot of the speculation about our potential trade down opportunities has swirled around Sanders and Jeanty but could it actually be Jaxson Dart that gives us that opportunity?

Heard that teams could be targeting Dart and not Sanders as the 2nd QB. And maybe Milroe as an early 2nd or late 1st that someone trades into.

Great call. I still wonder if the Saints bite in the first or get a trade up into the late first.

Sanders not being a top 3 QB would be hilarious after everything. At first I thought Dart was the smokescreen but it may be Sanders.

When I watch Sanders play I just don't see it. Not as an NFL prospect. He just looks like the typical "good college player that doesn't translate" to me. I don't see any physical trait that's above NFL average without the mental acuity that Bryce showed against far better competition. I think he was largely carried by Travis Hunter.

I agree. He tries to force basic stuff and Hunter did a lot to make him look better. He just looks like a guy who maxed out in school.

I'm still not taking Jaxson Dart before him unless it's like the 3rd round.  Seems crazy to me.  There's an outside chance Sanders is good in the NFL.  I think Dart is a backup.

From anyone else that would be obvious reference but from that family it's just standard stuff really. He could just be referring to finally acknowledging Ward is going as the first QB. Who knows with a Sanders

That's how I see Sanders and the one with any upside is Dart.

For the record, I don't think either work out long term as starters. But I think Dart has the considerably higher ceiling. I just don't see anything about Sanders' playing style that is going to work in the NFL with his physical tools.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Disclaimer:  In June, I am usually optimistic.  In October, a policeman with a bullhorn is telling me that I have a lot of life ahead of me and to think about my loved ones as I gaze down upon him from my rooftop.   Having said that, I think our offense (down the stretch) was good enough to play KC and Philly tough.  So how many games would this offense have won if they played the entire season like they did in November-January and if they had a better defense?   If you could stretch the last nine games over an entire season and put a solid defense on the other side, I see 5 wins becoming 7 or 8.  Down the stretch, the Panther D surrendered 30 points or more in 5 of the final 7 games and managed to win 2 of those 5.  If they can win 40% of games in which their defense surrenders 30 points or more, then the math indicates, had that been the case all season, the Panthers should have won 6 or 7 games with their defense surrendering 30+ points.   This season, we are much better at WR (TMac, Renfrow, Horn, and I expect XL to be a lot better).  Bryce is confident and now a leader.    The Achilles' heel of the 2024 defense, the DL, seems to be very solid.  We got back Horn and Jackson on the corners, Smith-Wade is improving better than expected, we signed a stud Safety.  Derrick Brown returns.  While the D is not there yet, it is going to be better.   So if we ended the second half of 2024 playing at a level that should have produced 6-7 wins, better WRs and a better defense could result in 9 wins or more.
