We signed Devin Lloyd ILB

So is he the guy or is he the sidekick to the guy? Hell if we can make him a sidekick we are cooking. With the right draft pick that could be a reality by 2O27. 

Rodriguez and CJ Allen are the brains of this LB class. I’d still love Rodriguez in the second. Honestly Wallace did better for us when he was the green dot.

Bro, his better is like Bryce’s better. Very small increments. I think he blind squirreled a couple of highlights. He needs to take a massive step up if he wants to be anything. 

I’m sorry - I root for him to succeed because I rationalized his selection. Hungry for defense at the time. 
But he has been completely meh. I guess he gets year three before he gets defined, so here we come. Dan may want to give him every possible chance and putting him beside a quality counterpart would maybe be his last best hope. I would rather him be depth. He would be high grade depth.

Is it hard to bring Bryce up in every thread? Or does it just come naturally?

Comes naturally when the subject of small incremental improvements and poor draft selections intersect.

LB Devin Lloyd signs with Carolina Panthers

2025 PFF Grade: 88.4
2025 PFF WAR: 0.24
Contract: 3 years, $45 million
PFF Projected Contract: 3 years, $48 million
PFF Deal Grade: Good

After two years as a good linebacker, Lloyd became one of the game’s best in 2025 by producing an 85.2 PFF run-defense grade and a 78.9 PFF coverage mark. Carolina lands a much-needed playmaker over the middle after placing 29th in PFF overall grade at linebacker, and to add Lloyd below market projection is terrific.

The defense has their legit green dot now. Trading down for Kyle Hamilton, Devin Lloyd, or George Karlaftis and getting Zach Tom to play OT was what I wanted in 2022. Better late than never on the defensive side.

From what I can say, Wallace will keep the green dot. 🤷‍♂️ I just say what I hear. lol

Yea I'm thinking they might be content with Wallace and Lloyd as the starters and not look at ILB early in the draft

We're still sending coaches to scout LBs so I wouldn't be surprised if we draft one on day two.

Not to toss this group in dirt, I just have a collection of players were Im viewing them as non-panthers until I hear their names in OTAs, mini, and TC. Wallace, brooks, XL, Ickey, Thor, and zanzilla..... Just feel its best for Panthers to act that way and to address the positions as such. Draft, FA 2nd waves, waiver claims, trades, and UDFA pool to fill the roster numbers........ let each force the Panthers to recognize

Evero already said Lloyd was green dot. It was mentioned numerous times in the recent Blurprint video release

    • I would say that he's pulling things out of his ass to get people to visit his site.
    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
