Are we a better team now versus our last game

Getting Kalil back will be huge. I can't see how the offence will be worse. Hixon also gives us another receiving option -- that's big. I think it's quite amazing what Gettleman has done to the team. He really didn't have a lot of resources to work with (in terms of cap and number of draft picks).

Players aren't constants.

2013 versions of Gross, Smith, Williams etc are getting worse.

We also likely could be starting 2 young DII Gs....which will cause more OL issues.

Ginn is really ST.

Hixon doesn't offset our aging stars IMO. Nothing else has been done.

Aging stars aside, our offense will be immensely better with Kalil starting.

We're definitely better. Who did we lose of note? James Anderson? Hell, Gamble was out most of the year anyway. Does he really count as a loss?

I'll definitely take the additions we've made this off-season and getting Kalil back over Anderson and a Gamble whose heart obviously was no longer in it.

    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
    • It is due diligence at that point. Irresponsible not to take him.  Crossing my fingers on this one, he has everything you look for except experience.
