Post Draft Cuts......

I agree.

We will do this year to the defensive line what we did last year for the offensive line.

Pull in as many players as you can that fit a certain size and style of play, and let them fight it out for the starting positions. Hopefully we can get some decent players, because we also really need depth on the offensive line (seems we really did grab some great o-liners, as most of the backups have left for starting positions elsewhere).

Don't worry, tomorrow Peppers will be traded to NE for their 1st rounder, 3 2nd rounders, a 1st in 2010 and Tom Brady's girlfriend. We will have cap room coming out the wazoo and Brazilian supermodels showing up at our doorsteps just because we are Panthers fans. Life will be good.

So what exactly are you going to be proven right about tomorrow? Us drafting a QB with an early pick?

What did I quote you on. Peppers will be traded to the Pats and we will get extra picks. Dont know which picks but something about it tells me that it has been done for weeks.

No way would I predict the Panthers taking a QB early. Would be nice to see them pick up White but this team doesnt think outside the box.

    • What you are saying isn't always true and I'll give you several examples to demonstrate this. 1) The best player on the board at the end of in round 1 by all consensus is RB (top 15 player in draft who slips b/c of the devaluation of the RB position). Your team is in desperate need of a LT because the current one is getting your QB killed. You already have a serviceable RB in place. The LT has a 2nd round grade and you have the first pick on day 2 of the draft Who do you choose? 2) Your run defense was abysmal the previous season. A DT in round 2 does not provide much in terms of pass rush, but most reports have him rated as the best pure run stuffing DT in the draft. The two highest rated players on your board at the time are a TE and tweener at OLB/DE who slipped into round 2 after a run on WR's. Who do you choose? 3) Your pass rush rush is solid across the board. You even have guy coming off of the bench to provide production. Your secondary in below average. No Safety on the roster is a difference maker and as a unit the squad doesn't have an INT. The highest rated player on the board is a DE. The 5th highest rated player on the board is a an intelligent ball hawking Safety. Which player would make the team immediately better?  1) I think the BPA logic applies when your team is solid across the board and you can afford to draft for depth 2) I think it also applies when your team stinks and any solid player will be an immediate upgrade over what you already have. I agree that you should NEVER reach for a player when you are need at a position like we did for Bryce Young. But I also think if there's is a player on the board that will fill a glaring weakness you need to take him even if a player with a higher over all ranking is available at another position (which isn't a need)  
    • Bryce Young excels at dividing Panthers fans. That seems to be what he's best at.
    • 184 yards game, 61% completion 11 tds 5ints    thats ranks :check notes:  25th in the nfl
