Completely agree.

I think the Panthers care more about getting the right Face of the Franchise, more than the extra corner or wr that they could possibly (if they are still around) trade up for.

That's why I think a trade is unlikely. I think the Panthers and Texans view Young as QB1. The Panthers are happy to take him, but if the Texans want him bad enough to give up that 1 next year then it creates a conversation.

This true, I think it's more likely to happen on draft day if at all. For the record, Albert Breer thinks a trade is highly unlikely, and he is not what I would call a bad or whimsical insider.

This is true, but it comes down to what the Panthers value. Do they they want to recoup the 1st they lost next year or pick at 33. They already pick at 39, I think it's more likely that want their future capital back.

I live in the DFW so we get a lot of access to Houston media, even they are talking about how Carolina won't move if for anything less than next years 1.

Obviously he is not, but if he is the Panthers and the Texans far away number 1 for this year, you gotta pay for the luxury to make that decision.

Houston would have to win the superbowl to make it a worse pick than 33. I think the Panthers want a number 1 receiver next year, and thar doesn't exist this year.

And to that point, I believe it will take more than what Houston will want to give to tradeback, starting with next year's first. I don't think they do it for 33.

It's pretty well documented that they view him as future GM material.

Agree, I think the south will be more competitive then people expect.

I think it comes down to how well thier QB plays. If he turns out to be decent they will be competitive, if not, they might fins themselves in Panthers 7-9 just outside QB range territory.

To be fair, you should listen to Billy Marshall's interview with the S2 co-owner. Gives a lot of great context to the exam.

Well Justin is trending pretty up right now and Zach, Trey and Mac are not. Make of it what you will.

No lies here. Social media and Instagram culture have wrecked the current generation.

Point is, I think Frank is easier to convince to turn to Bryce than Fit is to turn to Stroud or Richardson. Fiterrer has been talking about Bryce even before draft season.

I mean its reported that several front office folks love Young. Tepper is just the big name that brings attention. I can guarantee you Fiterrer is in the Young camp as well. Just read his quotes and watch his interviews and you can connect the dots.

Looks good in that jersey.

Yes! Elite line, protect that rookie.

My question is, who has the time to check people's follows all day?

I think AR is out of the picture unless Houston forks over next year's 1.

A lot of denial right now. It's gonna be Bryce, might as well start ordering that jersey.

I don't understand it - if they Panthers trade back so the Texans take Bryce, then suddenly at 2 Richardson is the favorite? So we don't really care about Stroud at all, even though he is in contention for the number 1 pick? Guys, it's going to be Young. He is and always was the best in the draft. All the language has pointed to it, all the signs. The media just ran with the height thing, and that's started to fall apart.

I think Fiterrer goes with his guy in this case.

He put context to that, saying if football wise it was split 50-50, it would be more from a business perception than anything. So that is really a last resort option.
