Well, some of you guys are always whining about Joe Person's timeliness, here is an article about Hurney's thinking when it comes to filling needs of the team. The last paragraph basically sums it up:

“I think we’re going into the draft like we did free agency. We didn’t go in with any agendas. We just sort of monitored the free-agent market and came up with what we thought were good football players that could help improve our team. I think that’s the same approach we’ll take in the draft.”

Other tidbits (that many of us already knew):

1. Shockey probably will NOT be here according to his infamous agent.

2. The Panthers are concentrating on value due to cap space

3. They are most likely to trade down than up

4. Free agency has been focused on versatile players who have been special teams stand-outs.

By default, our FO has become smart again.

Hurney And Company Open-Minded Regarding Draft

(Translation: We are willing to trade down, people).

Concerning possible trading partners: Watch Philly. With Peters going down and expectations high in Philly, they could deal for Reiff. Carolina (#9) is about where they would target a trade up.

Philly has 2 second rounders, probably would offer #51 as part of a deal.

Ey man, that's good info. Thanks. I wouldn't have read any more of that "signed players" and would have never came across this. Screw thread police

Hey, man. Give a brotha some slack! I had been up all night. There is a slightly different focus and take between this thread and the other. But, you got me.

I had seen the info about the injury, but just couldn't see how it could relate to the Panthers. Thanks for making the connection (which really could be a good thing).

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
