Don't assume the Panthers first pick...

Hurney is just giving you the standard BPA speech and the old we look at all sides and make the best decision. Right until the end last year Hurney kept talking about narrowing his pick down to five guys when it seemed clear Newton was going to be the one. He is not going to give anything away or narrow his choices in January.

They do however had needs that MUST be addressed. The wisest move would be find a solid DT and CB in free agency (not the top FAs, we know as longtime Panther fans that's not happening. Just solid healthy players). That would open the big board up to BPA.

...The truth is that this league has changed alot in the past 2 or 3 years, and having a dominant offense is how you win in the NFL now. Out score your opponents...

No, that's how you sell tickets/merchandise. Not win. Two of the top offenses are out while two of the top defenses are playing today.

Ron Rivera even said that beefing up the lines is essential esp offense. Wharton is breaking down, Otah is unreliable, Gross is diminishing.

Among many other needs it could be the thing that makes the team elite: Having an awsome line. Eats up the clock and alllows Carolina to dictate tempo all game.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
