This draft was not really that successful TO ME IMHO. Hurney has had just as good drafts if he didn't make those dum ass trades. I'm glad Hurney is gone, but Gettleman didn't do much better he just didn't trade any picks (which is the only good thing). I gave this class a C. The only picks I'm ready to see play is Kenjon Barner and Star!!! Besides that Kwan Short, I guess, but I'm really mad at that pick right now lol. Other than that we didn't really improve this team anymore than we already have on the roster.

What I don't get though is why we brought all these receivers in and didn't pick not one receiver?!?!?!? It wasn't because of smokescreens he practically hung up any trade offers, so what was the reason???

rotoworld has faith in the kug...

Panthers selected Valdosta State OG Edmund Kugbila with the No. 108 overall pick.

Kugbila (6-foot-4 1/8, 317) made 32 career starts for the D-II Blazers, primarily at guard. He was a second-team All-D2 pick as a senior. Kugbila measured in with 34 7/8-inch arms at the Combine before running a 5.31 forty and performing 23 reps on the bench. Panthers rookie GM Dave Gettleman has attacked both lines in the draft, which is logical because Carolina desperately needed help in the trenches. Kugbila could compete for snaps right away at right guard.

ill book mark this thread for you guys when he is starting next season.

the ONLY reason this guy wasnt in the D1 was due to SAT score.

he has the talent and measurables you look for @ OG.

Exactly.

He was highly recruited by several SEC teams.

Star - A+ (OMG!)

Short - B+ (there were bigger needs after the Star pick, but Dwan is 33)

Klein - B- (little immediate need, but good player and we all know about our injury issues at LB)

Kugbila - D (position of need, but a head scratching pick)

Barner - C+ (good value pick, but zero immediate need)

Seems like a good kid.

And quite a bit smarter than the guys trying to interview him.

Yep, what's good is he's football smart. If he works hard in the weight room and evens his body out, he might start this year. It's more likely that he's a season away from that baring injury though.

Also I hate listening to those damn audio links, but it's the best we've got for right now.

    • It's your right to refer to it as vague, but it still flouts the theory of "zero evidence" that Tepper is changing. Here's another: "Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales and general manager Dan Morgan are reportedly being given a larger leadership role within the organization. Panthers owner David Tepper 'has taken a more hands-off approach of late,' according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. 'He's trying to trust Canales and GM Dan Morgan to get it right, knowing that the roster requires patience in its current state,' Fowler wrote. 'We shall see if he holds to that.'" https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10146782-report-panthers-david-tepper-has-taken-a-more-hands-off-approach-to-team   ""David Tepper just wants to win and he's gonna supply everything that we need to win.. Things are changing around here and things are looking really positive" ~ Dan Morgan  https://x.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/1917639137550627107?t=6vgo8yXTO6eD0Gb55hyzNg&s=19   From about 2:15-6:35, Julian Council, Locked on Panthers, gives his take on whether Tepper seems to be changing (and specifically referenced the war room in his analysis):    Dean Jones of Cat Crave on David Tepper in the war room. "He was an innocent bystander throughout a hugely important decision, placing full trust in Morgan and Tilis to make the right call." Jones also quoted Pat McAfee: "What I noticed though, at one point, they looked at (David) Tepper to get an answer, Tepper didn’t say sh*t. All anybody has said about Tepper is that he’s hands-on, hands-on, hands-on. Too handsy, too involved. He’s not letting the football people do their thing. We just watched in the biggest moment for their franchise, a top ten pick, he just sat there and let everybody do their jobs. I think if you’re a Panthers fan, you love everything you saw there." https://catcrave.com/silence-from-david-tepper-becomes-panthers-loudest-victory Granted, you're not getting a major headline here, but that's not going to happen anyway. Fowler isn't exactly a nobody, everybody knows McAfee, and you also have some locals that follow the team (including Dean Jones). Of course you have a right to believe that Tepper hasn't really changed, but to say there is no evidence that he just may be changing is not really true. It's just not. Hate the guy, but the way that he has handled this current regime is different than he handled previous teams, and his silence in the war room and publicly in general is different than years back.
    • Ehhh im not mad either way I don't think hes garbage but he was and is overpaid.... but he was a skating turnover machine.
    • My interpretation of his comments was somewhat different. And I took issue with his contract the day he signed. But it's all history now and doesn't matter in the big picture.
