Mr Smith,

You don't know me. I am just one of countless Panthers fans who want to say thank you for staying.

You see, being a Panthers fan is not an easy thing. We don't enjoy the conventional things that other fans around the league get to enjoy. Things like "winning", for example.

Being a Panthers fan in many ways is a practice in depravity. We choose to support a team that season after season rips out our very soul and treats it like a depends diaper at the Ponderosa. Once that happens, we are left numb and cold. Alone in this cruel world desperately seeking the slightest hint of hope, we follow with our hearts and our wallets. Our inevitable pain lessened by tears and hard liquor.

Mr Smith, you have provided the occasional peanut in the mound of crap we have seen for three years. The tasty morsel that reminds us of what it was like when we cheered for a team that at least had a chance of sniffing the post season 25% of the time.

And for that, Mr Smith, we are mighty glad you stayed.

[single tear]

Reading this thread with Lionel Richie crooning in the background has been one hell of an experience. More threads need theme music right off the top.

Having said that, I hope Smitty does know that he is, as you say, the lone peanut in the mound of crap. Thanks Steve, I'm mighty glad you stayed.

    • Give me Anthony Hill Jr or give me death
    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
