Don't think we fuged up at all. We need an X WR. You can not sign one in FA, trading for any of them worth a damn is too costly. You basically have to draft one. 

 

Big fan of this move. There were major questions marks with any defensive prospect we took at 8

I still don’t get the love for Jalon Walker.  In my opinion it was somewhat sheep mentality following what every one else wanted for us.  I like the kid and think he’s an overachiever but his production was not top 10 worthy. I could only see him as a rotational piece with Wonnum, Clowney and Patrick Jones. Walkers range was 15 to 25 in my opinion. Glad we stuck to our board.

I think he is a scheme specific fit. I didn't think that fit was with Evero.

Their history of failure drafting edge rushers is working against them but the fact that lots of Panthers fans wanted Walker and we passed with a division rival drafting him it just feels destined that he's the next coming of LT. LOL

Watch some UGA games and see who jumps off the screen on D.

they paid a heavy heavy price in a draft that is flat talent wise at dline after the first few picks. I would argue they didnt get great value and Pearce will neve live up to his price.

Scoring and Front-7 is what gets you to win games. We still needed firepower. 

Regarding McMillan - where I’m at is getting excited. Many were willing to take gambles on front-7 guys with serious question marks whether physically, skill wise or off the field concerns.

And if a guy has the elite hands and plays well in traffic, that helps with the separation. He’s not as physical as London but he’s got some finesse to his game. Played super well in a crazy year for that program and poor QB play. I think he has a really high floor, interested to see how good he could be.

Pearce Jr is going to be a bust. I cant believe they gave up their 1st next year for him. Walker will probably be a menace against us an average player overall in my opinion

I have seen a few UGA games and I like him a lot.  Walkers size against elite NFL tackles create questions. Questions that made me uncomfortable. I don’t think you should draft question marks in the top 10. If you have another player with a similar grade, take the other player. 

 

I am a little nervous about Walker and Pearce going to the Falcons. Seems like our luck they will ball out.

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By Mage · Posted

      Who is "they"?  Who in the media still argues that Bryce Young could reach the levels that people thought he would before the draft? I mean, nobody is going to come outright and bash the kid.  By all accounts he's a good dude and I think that is why you don't see the media come after him like they did Zach Wilson.

      It started during the Denver game after that first drive. i don’t think the panthers got a first down again until the fourth quarter.

      QB 2026 (For the Young Haters)

      By Mage · Posted

      The Panthers will finish with at least 7-8 wins.  So that leaves them with only two "smart" choices in my opinion: 1. Sign a reasonably priced free agent QB and see if they are better than Bryce Young in training camp - The issue is there will be very little options.  There is almost no way the Colts let Daniel Jones walk.  Rodgers, Flacco, and Wilson will likely retire (and is Wilson better than Bryce anyway?).  Winston is under contract with the Giants for another year.  That leaves Mariota, which I'm all for, but the Commanders will make a big push to keep him given Daniels' injury history.  Outside of him, there is literally nobody else. 2. Stick with Bryce Young for one more year - Nobody wants this to happen, but the Panthers won't be in a position to draft one in the first round and it isn't a strong class to begin with.  Mendoza, Simpson (and do we really want an Alabama QB?), and Moore will likely all be off the board by the time we pick.  Bryce isn't good, but we are still 5-4.  I'd rather continue to build the rest of the team than reach for a QB.  Then we could set ourselves up nicely in 2027 to make a splash play if we choose.  This is how we should have approached years past; stuck with Kyle Allen or Sam Darnold or Teddy Bridgewater and kept building the team until we were ready to make a splash.  But every year we panicked and did something stupid. There is the idea you could throw a dart at a guy in the later arounds, but IMO this just isn't a good QB class and odds are it will be a wasted pick.  I still think we need a lot of depth on the defense.  I'd rather focus there.
