DT/DE, Will LB, S

RT, C

I see TE sneaking into the fray, but we have drafted 3 TEs since 2021.  I think you let them develop (Sanders, Evans flashed at times), but I do not see an upgrade unless we draft TE by day 2.  We need too many other positions.  

No, I don't believe the BPA rule is pure or always followed.  IF the draft was before free agency, then maybe.

If it’s not Sadiq at 19 ( I hope it’s not him) I think we see what shakes out in FA. We’ve drafted two guys in the last two drafts on day 3, so I don’t see any upside going back to that well….especially in this draft.

I could see if Njoku’s number comes down or someone else as a vet and true upgrade on a 1-yr deal. Re-visit next offseason and see if Sanders or Evans becomes what we want them to be between now and then. 
 

At some point, if we want to upgrade TE, we have to invest in a trade, an early draft pick or FA. These 4th rounders and beyond are what they are.

where do you put NT?

I've having troubles with my list, its too fluid and the value is crushing me too.

like, edge is back to the top even with Phillips..... or dare say a case of mine can be made... 

I still feel panthers have WR on the bullseye...

A legit NT and a true FS are the elephants in the room that a lot of people aren't talking about but they're huge needs.

I'd list the following in terms of needing an upgrade at the starter position 

1- LB 2

2- NB

3- TE

4- NT

5- FS

6- WR 3

 

Now if you talk about rookie depth we need

OT

C

outside CB

Edge

So if the draft goes something like 

round 1 - OT

round 2- LB

Round 3- CB/FS/NB

round 4- C

I'd be pretty happy

Spot-on. D-line and FS are much bigger immediate needs than OT or WR. Look at the current roster and the fact that they have not brought in any new players at those positions.

      The good thing about replacing a bad player is you really have nothing to lose. If their replacement is bad so what, you didn't get much worse and probably saved money.

      I came over from the old Panthers Insider site. When Fox Sports bought that platform it slowly just started dying plus the guy who ran that site was dealing with some pretty significant health issues so the whole thing just slowly fell apart. Quite a few of us migrated over here. Not sure how many are still around.  I miss that place. It struck a nice balance of having enough active posters to keep productive conversation flowing but didn't have so much traffic that you end up with a lot of trolling BS. This place is getting there though since we shutdown new registrations but at some point we're going to have to open it back up or we'll watch this place slowly die off too as posters fall off for one reason or another. We just have to figure out a way to filter out the spam bots. It was a never ending battle to ban the spam bots to keep then from overrunning the site. You'd think they'd be a little more strategic. I mean, if you fill a site with nothing but spam people are just going to stop coming so it's not a sustainable model. But nope, every one of them makes dozens of duplicate threads filling up pages upon pages as soon as their account goes live.

      lol...I don't remember that.  Although recalling what I had for breakfast yesterday is sometimes a challenge.  Hope it was a positive thing.
