What will it take to turn this team around?

Seriously... we're so far from being relevant right now it's hard to imagine this franchise ever being a true contender, but what would it actually take for that to happen?

I think personally we need to really hit on a player in the draft. No big name free agent is going to want to sign here, so if we ever get our franchise guy he's going to have to come via the draft. Realistically we need to hit on 2-3 players in the draft, but we need that one franchise player to build around badly.

That said, we have to also change the perception surrounding the team. I remember during last year's draft hearing how none of the agents wanted their players to go to Charlotte and that HAS to change if we're ever going to be relevant.

Honestly getting lucky in a draft and getting a superstar. Which means being horrible for at least one more season after the current one and getting lucky with the ping pong balls.

The team could use upgrades at PF, Center and Shooting Guard. Needs depth everywhere but SF, I think MKG and Taylor are good prospects to build with.

Team needs -

Backup PG

Starting SG, backup SG (if Hendo can't be resigned)

Starting PF and backup PF (Idk about Mullens)

Starting C (Biz could be a decent backup, if he develops to become a defensive star. A starter if he develops to be below or average offensively)

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By csx · Posted

      I just dont get the worry over losing a practice squad player that just went undrafted. Everyone just made their selections. The chances of a team wanting to sign him to an active roster after not selecting him is very low.  If that interested they would have taken him late to evaluate in person. As far as I can tell two qbs were signed off another teams practice squad last season and they were both going in to their 5th season.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By frankw · Posted

      I enjoyed reading this thread and the usual banter that follows. The only silver lining I can identify right now is we do actually have a couple of young QB's behind him and we do have a nice roster on both sides of the ball built around the most important position. So if the team overall shows some promise but we still falter largely due to a lack of consistent passing output (again) hopefully the decision makers can be free to make the best decision for the team going forward after the conclusion of this upcoming season.

      I don't really follow the team anymore due to a variety of reasons and consequently have largely stopped posting but I agree that this is a lovely website and community. This forum probably kept me around for years longer than I would've stuck otherwise because of how difficult it was to stop checking multiple times a day. Especially appreciate how lax the moderation tends to be compared to a lot of places, the crew here does a great job. Out of curiousity I decided to try making a new account (solely for testing purposes) to see what exactly is wrong with the sign up process. The issue seems to be that it never sends you an account verification email, thus making it impossible to complete registration. This is likely something to do with the email server upstream, hope it gets fixed. Also, lol
