If Bryce is going to thrive, the #Panthers need to build the offense around what he does well

Only if the OT has the grade. Some of you seem to be forgetting that the value HAS to be there, or what the hell are we doing?

Most of what I see it would be nice to trade back a few slots and still get. 
I want to put the investment into the fronts though. That is where the game is controlled. 
 

People seem to want to make Bryce into a Stafford or something. Air Young. 
He is a game manager. People want to give him all this help, but if you really want to help him then build a team that can support a game manager. That means control the LOS, first order of business.

XL should feel like crap.  Anyone with his skills should be successful by now.  Instead, we need 3 quality WRs that other teams fear.  If not, TMac gets doubled.  Coker?  does not really run the entire route tree.  We need 3...

He is a beast.  Everyone has given up on him though. .

Made a whole thread about sadiq weeks ago as the most logical pick if he's available and every just said no defense defense defense and Bryce sucks we need a Qb lol

Our O-line is pretty good on paper, and our D-line should be good in theory. We should be able to control the LOS (at least good enough for someone on the team to go off). We have put plenty of resources into the defense the last couple of offseasons.

Our starting oline looks good on paper.  Even that is a bit of a reach given the additions, age and injuries.  Problem is when someone inevitably goes down we are going to relying on some dude named Stone to step in.   The Icky injury and the timing of it really mess up the overall plan for this team.  I like walker but only as a stop gap and hopefully he returns to prior form.  We just are a team with no depth anywhere.  Its kindof wild when you think about it

We haven’t used a first on the defense since  Bryce was here. And only one 2nd. 
If you look at what went into the offense, just to get Bryce alone was a fortune, they still owe that defense. 
 

And if Icky had not have happened I would be posting in caps that we need to spend the 1st pick on the D. It kills me not to do it, but that injury shifted everything.

Nah, dude. The only one that's actually long in the tooth is Not on, and he ain't even done yet. If Icky can't come back, then Walker will be extended. Walker is after all a better pass defender. We're not necessarily at the point where we need to be drafting first rounders who would likely be sitting on the bench; day two or three guys that can be developed could fill that need.

Dude, we just invested in two past first rounders on defense. Sure, we didn't draft them, but we acquired them in free agency. And it's not like Mike Jack is some bum out there.

Relying on a guy that couldn't stay on the Raiders offensive line as our primary backup is beyond scary.
