You would. But this regime has bent over backwards to surround our #1 pick with top end talent after early on bloviating about not needing to invest so much around him because he's that good. So there's only so much to go around. Especially when we are 4th in OL spending.

I get it but I dont think there is an excuse for it to be absolute poo. Weakened maybe. But not this bad.

Our ILB position is dog poo. You would think that would be a strength with Morgan at GM.

Not necessarily, if anything, I think there is an argument to be made that it's the least important position in football, so I don't take issue with them leaving it for last during this re-build.

Honestly the only position I think you could argue is less important to have studs is RB.  

Today's NFL is about the passing game.  So you need the QB and WRs, as well as the OL to protect and give time for your passing game.  While the opposite is true on defense, that you need the pass rush and secondary to be your strongest units to defend against the pass.

There is a reason you don't see MLB's get drafted early in the 1st Round unless they're a true generational talent, like a Kuechly.

Terrible news all around. Concussion demon takes another panther- Luke, oher, and now jewell. Panthers seemed to want to re-do the contract and Jewell didn't want too, that's a sign that he's retired for good. 

 

I've already arm-chair GM this, its bad. Just nothing on the market, not even a Cloweny-like cut waiting for the right team.

Trade wise, another big bad. Jags may have two- former 1st round Lloyd .

Member the CJ Henderson trade, Panthers sent a 3rd- Chad Muma was used on that pick. He's done near nothing, but listed as LB and  he's in the last year of deal. Jags drafted two MLBs this yr.

Drew Sanders from broncos former 3rd coming off a torn ach......ugh he's young!

Channing Tindall of the phins, another 3rd rounder in the final year without doing much..

Brian Asamoah of the Viking, 3rd rounder in the final year without doing much.......

 

 

Cuts seemed to be the best path, by far. I don't know if Dan should trade swap 6th for one of those 3rd round duds and a 7th. 

 

 

Panthers are going to need a huge surprise from Bam Martin, windom(statered some last yr), or the other UDFA Nomura. 

That's the best hope right now, someone on the current roster shows up and shocks everyone while they take over a starting MLB job.

Kyzir White is available 

I overlooked him, yea this guy has produced every stop he's been at for the last few years. 29 years old, unlike the 33-34 names unsigned. 

Anyone have his PFF coverage grade??

 

 Pro Football Focus (PFF) also gave him a 48.8 overall grade for the season, placing him 156th out of 189 qualified linebackers......

sounds like a panther to me!!111!!

still like to see his coverage grade..........I hope there's a sleeper LB already on the roster...

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

      By nogoodbum · Posted

      Don't take this personal, but anyone who watches pregame or game broadcast on any of the four major networks & can't point out a dozen "experts" that Luke would do a better job than, is just not paying attention. IMO

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
