FOF9 Dynasty with 2024 Player File - Carolina!!!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2028 NFL Amateur Draft:

I draft Fiste. I just need the look and interview by my new OC great here to make this work.

Near the end of the 2nd round here. Who do I like? We have a 6.5 DT for 4-3 named Varela, I don’t need it. I could use RT for Moton, or ILB for MacPhail or S but that’s a lesser need, or OG. Backup RB, stud TE, backup DT, depth for LB, or just a strong BAP. Everywhere but D Line or WR. Even a stud FB. My coaches like OT Jevon Bailey who is the 2nd best OT, but just 5.5. Overrated? Who else.

I love OLB RJ Counts, best as a 3-4 OLB at 5.9 and very underrated.

OG Simon Anderko – 5.3 – top OG. Hard to Read – Run block specialist,

SILB Conor Edison - The best ILB and 5.6 – As Scouted

I got a draft trade for Washington for this pick for their 2 5ths this year and 6th next, and that’s great since I just moved stuff. I really like Counts, but his bars are just okay. He would need to grow. If it were 3rd, I’d be more likely to pull the trigger. Counts, Edison or Bailey? He’s Overrated, Counts or Edison or Anderko? Very Underrated or better bars Hard to Read? My DC is 70 in interviews but just 50 in scouting. If they miss, all but Bailey are useful for depth as I have three OG and we lost 3 LBs. We are a 3-4, but also need a strong Oline. Neither upgrade would be major, both are low to mid 50s and none of these have bars to blow you out.

I go with the needed ILB of Edison.

3rd? All 6s are off save for Qbs. I still need a RB, two are near the top named Ruben Mar, 5.6, Mayar, 5.6, and a few at 5.5 too. Is this a good place to snag one? My staff want OG Chester Robinson, who is 4.8, tied for 3rd best and As Scouted.

What about RT? Four 5.4 Ots are left, two of which are RTs. They are As Scouted and Very Overrated. The As Scouted one is Theodore but he looks not great with the bars. Any lower than 5.4?

I get a Trade Offer from Tampa Bay for this pick and their 4th, 6 and 7 next. Maybe

Let’s see if I can fit need to the BAP.

5.3 RT are Caleb Morton, then 5.1 to Asher Doss. Both of those are very overrated or hard ot read

RB?

It’s deep and two Overrated in the top 4, what about OG Robinson? He’s…okay, an okay everywhere, not specialized in anything.

CB Donny Schroeder – Very Underrated, top CB, 5.5. Not great bars

I take the trade. They are not for this year but future ones where I traded

4th round is here: I take RB Ruben Bar from last pick still around.

5th – My staff want DT Rickey Sappington who is 5.2 and very overrated.

Draft offer for this pick from Tennessee for their 6th and 7th in 2030. That’s when I am getting the Tama Pick i think. I would do it for 2029.

Who do I like here? OG Geoffrey Rosas 4.3, underrated.

6th round -6.29, my staff like TE Khalil Terry who is the top TE left at 4.4 y 0.3 and is Hard to Read I snag him,

7th is here – There a very overrated 5.0 LB left, but I go with As Scouted ILB Darnell Jordan 4.8

7.36 – Comp Pick – S Bill Henn, 4.1, Underrated

The 2028 Carolina Panthers Draft:

1.1 – QB Harold Fiste, Ohio State, 49/74
2.29 – SILB Conor Edeson, Cincinnati, 36/58
3.29 – TRADE
4.29 – RB Ruben Bar, App State, 38/43
5.29 – OG Geoffrey Rosas, Florida State, 20/28
6.29 – TE Khalil Terry, Monmouth, 26/39
7.29 – MLB Darnell Jordan, Northern Illinois, 26/42
7.36 – S Billy Henn, Georgia, 22/33



The man starts out better than Price! Edeson would be great late if he holds. Rosas will need to grow loads. Jordan not that bad that late.

The 2028 NFL Late Free Agency:

I have 53 on my roster, open cap space of 12.84 mill.

I extend:

SS Winfield for 25.22 mill two years
FS Holland two years 19.6 mill
DE Kidder for 7.2 mill, 2 years
P Coby Allen for 15.8 mill 5 years

16.7 now

I make offers to these UFAs;

QB Marlon Cadogan – 39/52 – 3 years plus some
TE Bubby McAlister – 28/52 – 3 years plus some
RT Mohammed Silva – 16/49 – 3 years

That leaves me a few million for cash to Sign other FAs.

Free:

The best is 8th year TE vet Kyle Pitts with a 55/55 rating and wants 17.3 mill and 7.78 cap hit this year base. I could bring him in and then have him and Schultz as my top two TEs, and then cut Engram and save 2.83 mill and based on how McAllister pans out also Chayefsky and new rookie Terry and if Schultz at 50/50 busts, cut him. If I offered him and signed for 8.25 cap hit plus the 3 mill rough UFAs with bonuses, that would leave me around 5 mill for emergencies and minor stuff later before I cut Engram

The other good FAs are 51/51. None are Ots. At 50/50 SLB Jones is still free

Do I want to cut MacPhail now so Ederson can start? I’ll wait until after preseason in case he busts. But then I couldn’t sign a replacement. But 36 current and 52 current are pretty different. He just wants 10.29 mil for three years but I need to upgrade my LB Corps. I do not cut him since Ederson is pretty green,

I make a 2.53 mill two year offer for WILB Wallace 46/46 to return since we lost four and brought in three.

I offer Kyle Pitts at 8.25 mill cap this year. I have the cash.

Day 2 – Signing are Silva, Cadogan and McAlister – all UFAs

UFAs:

QB Marlon Cadogan – 38/51
TE Bubby McAlister – 29/51
RT Mohammed Silva – 16/44

Silva a big drop, but the other two UFAS re just one minus, if they hold…

Day 3 – WILB Wallace rejoins us

Day 4 – Kyle Pitts arrives, I cut Engram

I extend OG Patrick since I couldn’t find a replacement for 2 years, 12.9 mill cap lower from 8.5 to 7.6

I don’t extend Moton.

I have left for new folks 7.57 mill

I end late fee agency
