Gannt Selects With #9 Pick...

Would anybody really be pissed about this pick? I mean really?

The guy is a plug and play Steve Hutchinson/Alan Faneca type of player that makes your entire offensive line better. More protection for Cam, more rushing yards for the backs, more 3rd downs getting picked up.

People bitching about taking a safe player like Kuechly or DeCastro need to get the big picture. They make the team better instantly. Period.

Not a fan. Not with the holes we have on defense.

Wouldn't entirely be shocked if they took him though.

There are only three postions on this team that I would be absolutely shocked with if we drafted that position number nine: QB and RB/FB, TE. Everything else wouldn't suprise me at all.

It would make the O-line better and we could use the stable of backs we have much more effectively. Make the strength stronger.

No point in having one of the best mobile QBs of all time(already), a two headed monster RB tandem, and a very good FB. But then no O-line to open up holes for them.

We cut Wharton and there's no guarantee any of the replacements will be that great. If Otah goes down again that's not really the greatest O-line to pass/run behind.

    • I think we have some revisionist around it here because of all the drama around Tepper's involvement. If you pull up any scouting report from the time you'll see the same take. WalterFootball's report sums up the media's thoughts on him well: "Young has everything the NFL is looking for in a quarterback except in terms of weight and height." He was the consensus top QB of his draft and the only real question mark they had about him was whether his body could hold up in the NFL. The infamous Steph Curry comparison the Panthers latched onto came from Albert Breer. The excuses I've heard for him are more anecdotal. Bryce Young's development is the only bullet point most NFL fans have on the Panthers right now. That and the coaching turnover. If you're not actually watching our games it's easy to believe this is just a dysfunctional organization that doesn't know how to unleash this talented Heisman winner.  I've seen media and fans alike run with that narrative way more than criticizing Young outright. Whenever we win there's flocks who use it as proof that the Panthers just need to be patient.  
    • So maybe 1-3 vs playoff teams, going by standings as of today. I guess that is an improvement.  We are just about improved enough to be in purgatory draft wise. It really isn’t so bad in the 1st unless you really want that top QB or maybe edge guy because there are usually plenty of good players at the top but it hurts you some as get deeper in the draft.
