With A Deep Draft Of Def. Players, Panthers Can Get....

Players like DT Thompson from Clemson to compete with Fua and veteran Edwards as a run stopper in the 2nd round. ;)

CB Hayward from Vandy to compete with Hogan and Butler in the 4th round & OLB Trevathan from Kentucky to groom for T. Davis in the 5th round. :)

Previously, I mentioned a wide receiver in the first like Blackmon and Floyd to grow with our quarterback Cam. :D

I wish you wr people get a life. If gettis or lafell. Were drafted in the 1st round. These stupid threads wouldn't be happening. But you have to have a shinny new toy at any cost. Our defense gives up 485 points and we have the 5th scoring offense with no offseason and a rookie qb. But you still need a flashy wr. I just don't get it. I could see if the defense stoped any body but they even let the colts. Get 21 points.

Why didn't you just put this in your other thread? Outside of maybe a few options in the second round (Jerrel Worthy for example) I just don't see us drafting a DT outside of the first round. We either draft a DT in the first round or we don't draft one at all until possibly really late in the draft. We are stocked at average DT talent. We either go big or go home on that position in this draft.

To continue on my above point. It just doesn't make any sense to further clog up the DT position with 2-5th round talent, when we have two 3rd's from last years draft as well as various other pieces from FA from last year already there. Fua and McClain with most definitely have progressed from last year, and outside of freak talents like Suh, DT's are very rarely dominant their first year.

The only defensive players that make sense long term are Brockers from LSU as our Nose tackle and Fletcher from MSU as our Under Tackle.

Both would be a mid-teens selection and a trade down scenario and will add considerable depth to our line and extra picks in the draft.

At defensive ends, you have players like Ingram and Coples that seem out of place or inconsistent.

Coples seems like a J. Peppers 2.0 player and would be a good pick, but I would rather go offense.

defense first plox

everyone that plays Madden would take an overpowered wide receiver over an overpowered defensive player

:cam:

Not true. I play too much Madden probly. I'm tired of seeing my defense get ran over. I'm remind of how much our DBs suck everytime someone throws a bomb.

      Tony Pauline: Panthers will strongly consider Kenyon Sadiq if he’s there @19

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Have to stop making everything about BY. They will and have been bringing in players to improve the TEAM, not just Bryce Young. Which is something they should have done BEFORE bringing in a rookie QB. Even Metchie is a generally good pickup at a position of need. He just happens to have played with BY in college. And that doesn't hurt his chances or the team's. Morgan just addressed the biggest areas of need on the team via free agency so they won't be reaching for a position of need in the draft. He's legit picking the best player available for the TEAM in the draft. The o-line was in shambles in 2023. He addressed it in 2024. The d-line was in shambles in 2024. He addressed it in 2025. The pass rush and linebackers were in shambles in 2025. He's addressed it in 2026. Unfortunately good young WRs don't hit the FA market, so can't just throw money at them. You have to draft them. I wonder what some would be saying if they'd spent the amount of cap on the offense that they spent on the defense in 2025 and 2026 - and then used both first round draft picks on defense. Would that have been better in your eyes? No. You would be complaining that the defense is too young to compete and more vets weren't brought in because they're trying to prop up BY. This team should be talented enough now to make some noise in the South. If BY is actually holding them back, then QB will be addressed in 2027. They benched him 2 games into their tenure and you think they're tied to his success. No. That doesn't compute. They're tied to the team's success. BY could throw for 5000 yards and if they're 4 - 13, head's will roll.  TLDR: Their decisions aren't driven by making BY look good. They're trying to improve the team and win games. Period.

      I still firmly believe that Tepper still has his mandate of make Bryce work or get fired and because of that, it doesn't matter how badly he does... He'll get a long term deal in the 40-50m range and set back this franchise for a decade. Then the Teppers will have another QB infatuation and maybe they get it right then.
