If you were GM and had someone who could be the GQBOAT....

Its a lock that either the first or second pick will be OL. Then again in the 3rd or 4th.

We don't have a 3rd.

No way we use 2 of our first 3 picks on the OL. Not w/ the issues on D we have.

There is still a ton of OL talent on our roster. Schwartz and Otah should be back for a year. Just need to pick up a RT in FA. Address long term next draft.

i would think helping the GQBOAT&HEHATETOLOSE win more games would be more important. the dude did well enough as a rookie with a UDFA RT blocking for him.

let's help him get things that will help us not give away leads. let's upgrade the defense.

add a FA OG and OT to help with competition between the guys we have. of there is still a need at either spot then we can work on that next year.

btw...none of this drafting decastro junk. let someone else use a 1st rounder on a frikkin guard.

We curently have 2 #1 picks and a 2nd round pick on the O line.

Add some depth later in the draft and a piece in FA sure, spend most of the draft on the O line, no chance.

Protect Cam by improving the defense, getting the ball back, scoring more points, getting leads and working the clock.

Fail.

No 3rd. But I wouldn't be disappointed in Reilly.

Defense is a big issue for us though and hopefully Edwards comes back as DT (did we sign him to something other than a year contract?) and people get healthy. Otherwise...we're going to have to score a bajillion to win.

If Kalil slides....yes I can see it.

If not, best Defensive player available not playing LB.

why exclude LB?

Thomas Davis = done

Jon Beason = unknown. May not be the same player or injury could plague him and comeback to haunt him.

got to take player man love out of equation. BPA

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
