Just thought it was interesting, yeah he is still a rookie and can get better but he was supposed to be the most NFL ready prospect in the draft way more than Cam. Can you imagine having him on the team right now struggling and still a bad QB situation because we picked him?

Stuff like this makes handling close losses a whole lot easier. Future is bright.

Great job Hurney :cam:

Hurney played Russian Roulette and won. Don't act like before the draft Cam was a sure fire #1.
i think he was. i had no doubts about him. the only thing i didn't know was how fast he would adapt.

meanwhile...guys like dareus and peterson were being hailed as "immediate impact players".

Dont' see why he shouldn't have been considered. He was always the better QB of this year's draft. It just seemed as if certain folks with some media clout wanted Blaine over Cam. I guess since they couldn't get Andrew, their real choosen QB, going up against the kid who took the Heisman away from him, they would settle for a kid who just looked like an elite NFL QB.

Just watching this year's draft opened my eyes to the politics that is played when it comes to certain players...It's not what u know...It's who u know.

I'm gonna call bull on that Ray. I don't believe ANYONE knew he was going to be this good. Other than Auburn fans and his parents. Oh and warren moon. If you truly did, good for you man. I wish I had your insight.

LOL! There was no sure fire #1.

That's kinda the point I was trying to make..

:lol: call bull all you want. i don't really care.

i didn't say i knew he would be this good although i knew he would be good. i said i considered him a surefire #1 (which is what you were saying that no one thought he would be). there's a difference.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By strato · Posted

      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.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      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.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By 45catfan · Posted

      I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
