***2014 Carolina Panthers offseason/draft/season thread***

Here it is. Pathetic ending to an otherwise good 2013 season. Hope we improve.

kingoftheroost · 01-12-2014, 05:20 PM

Biggest needs heading into the draft:

OL and DB. Both groups struggled mightily during the season.

usc90grad · 01-12-2014, 05:20 PM

Need to get another WR too

Cockypantherfan · 01-12-2014, 05:21 PM

Disappointing indeed. Need DBs, WRs, and o lineman. Shula needs to go or else our offense will keep spinning its wheels.

Cam needs to get over his ego and take advice he receives to heart. One word that comes to mind when thinking about Cam is: uncoachable

kingoftheroost · 01-12-2014, 05:24 PM

WR is definitely another need, but I think the offense would have been okay with better playcalling and consistent play from Newton. Newton is our best option, so I'm not saying we need to cut him, but he missed a lot of opportunities, too. OL and DB were glaringly obvious weaknesses during the season.

kingoftheroost · 01-12-2014, 05:26 PM

And the 2013 season mercifully comes to an end officially.

Cockypantherfan · 01-12-2014, 05:28 PM

I'll put this in here too:

Cam is the Lebron of the NFL minus the intellect. He would be the best player in the league if he had the drive and smarts of Lebron.

GoldenSpur7 · 01-12-2014, 05:30 PM

I think the top 2 picks will be at OT and WR.

I agree. Tons of WR talent in the draft but I think the big names will be gone by our pick.

gotrice? · 01-12-2014, 05:37 PM

If the Panthers can land a big WR like Evans or Benjamin and the WR works out that would be the biggest immediate impact for the team. Grab a CB or OL in the 2nd round.

Panthers could possibly draft Antonio Richardson from Tennessee

gamecockphan · 01-12-2014, 05:43 PM

Panthers could have tried to get Boldin last season but were too stupid.

I think he's gonna be a bust IMO.

Matthews and Lewan are better but of course they can't get that high of a pick.

crowcutta · 01-12-2014, 06:20 PM

sidney rice might be available in free agency. he counts 10 mil against the seahawks cap and is coming off a torn acl. if he does end up getting released, it would be a good fit and great to see if he can get close to his ex pro bowl form. he'll be 28 at the start of next season.

Latti · 01-12-2014, 06:22 PM

Need wr OL and cb

GoldenSpur7 · 01-12-2014, 06:33 PM

I'd like to see us hang on to Ginn. Lafell is a FA, and wonder what his future with the squad would be, if we draft a WR in 1st round.

I would be okay with keeping Ginn. I'm so torn on Lafell, though. The guy shows flashes of being really, really good (notice I didn't say great), and sometimes it seems like he can't get separation and has hands of stone.

Yeah, I don't really see the guy turning into a top-level #1. He had 6 targets against NO, for example, (with smitty out), w/ nada in the completion department.

Supposedly, he's a real good blocker, something that goes overlooked, but is important, for the #2.

How?

clemson sucks · 01-12-2014, 06:47 PM

Lafell is only valuable for his blocking.
