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.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
