If you could add one player from any team in the NFL to the 2025 Panthers to make them Super Bowl contenders, who would it be?

No single player will make the Panthers a SB contender this season.

Difference with him is he doesn't drop anything.  "I SAID DROP IT" *clinches down harder*

You know what's also funny....I literally thought about that too lmao
I'd take Aaron Donald for sure. But if I can play what if....

I may actually take a healthy CMC lol. 

Because I'm indecisive, I'll put in my final bid for a top tier TE, idk about Kelce at this stage in his career though.

Neither Barkley nor even a healthy CMC would move the needle much for us. Those are guys that impact teams that already have impressive overall offenses and defenses, so they can perform the complimentary roles that make them actually valuable. We should know that specifically because CMC almost never moved the needle on bad Panthers team after bad Panthers team. Ask Giants fans about that with Saquon.

Lamar or Josh Allen. Need the legs and the arm to have a chance to beat anyone any time. Yes, players haven't been able to get to the finish line with their own teams that are stronger all together than ours, but both of those guys give you a chance to beat anyone any time - just like how things used to be with Cam.

I get what you mean, but we have a lot of pieces that weren't here for CMC. With CMC I feel like we rarely had a solid QB and WR duo for the offense to play around.  Now I think we have potential for that and that would open up CMC's game a lot; also opening up the offense for Bryce (who can also use his legs) and 3 good young WRs and a vet.

Should of made it non QB

Not a bad strategy to let a team like the Giants or Panthers assume all the draft risk.  If you have a good team, you can buy a star back that panned out after their 1st contract.

[DeAngelo Beason]

If we are leaving God-King Mahomes out of the equation, then my answer would be Chris Jones or Dexter Lawrence.  It all starts up front.  

[RJK]

Trey Hendrickson 

[PNW_PantherMan]

How about any non-QB in NFL history at their prime?  I'll take prime coked out Lawrence Taylor.

 

[Bear Hands]

If we’re talking right now, there’s no single defensive player. There is no offensive skill position player. And no OL.

It comes down to Mahomes & Allen.

I wouldn’t trust Lamar.
