The division will go through Atlanta this year, and probably the next few to come as Pennix continues to evolve. Their entire offense is PROBLEMS.

The Panthers defense will not be able to hold that offense back this coming season, and even with a complete defensive overhaul… the season after that. For now the best shot the Panthers have is to find a way to go point for point, unless they want to pray for a wild card spot. 

WR room is razor thin. No Coker, it’s a wrap. No Thielen? Turn out the lights. XL is not that guy that will elevate JAGs. Moore? 

When, not if, Pennix comes on… The Falcons are going to blow some teams out this year. They are going to rack up points and not many defenses are going to be able to do anything about it, especially this one. 

I hope the rest of the draft is defensive heavy, but this was a very good and very needed pick. 

The south for sure is rapidly getting better.  NO looks like they are a full rebuild mode and will be a different team as well in 2 seasons.  Will be nice not to be in the shittest division in the nfl for once

I think XL will benefit from TMAC being here and being able to be under the radar a bit TBH

The NFL south used to be The dominate (yet underrated) division. For a stretch in early  2000s, the NFC South was in every NFC championship game

I just realized if we had lost to the Falcons and had the 6th pick, I don’t think last nights outcome would be any different for us. Tet was top five on their board

Again, I specifically pointed out trading next year's first was bad.  I am talking value based on where a player was selected.   Pick 15 and pick 26.  Both players were a big time need for them and both players were expected to go earlier.

They only had the ability to make that "value" selection by giving up a ton of value. So, it's a fallacy to point to that as a value pick. Doesn't make sense.

No?  Tmac isn't as good of a prospect as Drake London and London didn't do anything really until this past season.  I'm not sure off brand drake London is thr compliment you think it is.  Especially at pick 8 when you have a million ways you could go to improve the team

How? 

London is good, Robinson is good but not living up to the "BEST RB since AP" talk and Pitts might get benched.

Their offense is great in Madden but not real life.

Ive been refraining from posting on this but good job was picking Warren... a freaking dawg that Morgan keeps mandating. A dude that gets open and catches the ball, who gives a poo if hes a TE or WR.... I really think we have XL 2.0 in this draft...more development ...eighth losing season on the horizon.....everything works out we should be relevant l... in 28.... we shoulda picked D...we're going to be in a shootout every game this year. Lets just see how the rest of the draft shakes out....but it seems like more bs of the same.

I see this division being between us and ATL this year and unfortunately, ATL is shaping up to be one of the strongest offensive teams in the league. If they play to their potential, they could legit average 30 pts a game. The season after this one as Pennix develops even more team chemistry? That’s going to be pretty painful for the rest of the division.  

Until last night, Panthers were a team that didn’t even have a legit #1 receiver. We all hoped we would, eventually with Coker or XL, but that’s a long shot, and deep down we all knew it. We really needed ‘that guy’ on offense and hopefully we got him.

When your receiver room looks like ours and the opportunity comes to draft a legit #1 receiver who had his level of consistent production, you’ve got to take him. There’s no LB, safety, corner or DT that can shape a game like a legit stud WR1. not even close. The opportunity to get a guy like this don’t exactly come along every day. An all-pro edge guy, yes, but that wasn’t available. 

Teams that make deep runs have at least 1 ‘that guy’ on offense and defense. Hopefully we can now cross one off the list.
