I hope so. We haven’t drafted a 1st round linemen since the Bush administration.

From Riot Report and Joe Person article via The Athletic: I’m told the Panthers have had difficulty reaching a consensus on how the quarterbacks stack up, not surprising given that there’s no Trevor Lawrence or Joe Burrow at the top of it. Again, that’s another reason to take a tackle in the first round — something the Panthers haven’t done since the Bush administration (the second one). After getting the tackle, Fitterer shouldn’t just kick his feet up and wait for Saturday to roll around when the Panthers pick again. To this point, Fitterer has been protective of future picks, telling teams he wasn’t interested in giving up a 2 or 3 in 2023 to move up this year. He also said there are a couple of quarterbacks the Panthers would feel comfortable taking at 6, which very well could have been a smokescreen. But there are quarterbacks they’d feel better about in the second round, including North Carolina’s Sam Howell and, presumably, Kenny Pickett and Malik Willis if one of them were to drop (Willis probably won’t get past the Steelers at 20). Option B (or is it C? D?) at quarterback is to get through the draft and see if the price has dropped on Jimmy Garoppoloor Baker Mayfield, or if San Francisco or Cleveland would at least be willing to kick in some cash. As he did before free agency, Fitterer pointed out the cost effectiveness of drafting and developing a quarterback. When evaluating veteran QBs versus rookies, Fitterer said teams also have to ask themselves why some of these guys are still available.

Good. Fitt and Morgan are the only two mother fuggers on the team that I trust to run an NFL Franchise. Let him have every ounce of power and get rid of the used car salesman

Jesus. What a joke

Could not have said it better

From Riot Report:

Egg penis pictures incoming….

Rhule is dodging all press. He’s ready to collect his cash this year, underperform, and get right back to college where the used car salesman act works on kids who don’t have a choice.

Heeeeeeeelllllll naw. No way I’d trade next years 1st for any reason. We will have a new coach next year coming in without a 1st round pick which very well could be top 5 with Rhule’s track record.

I’m good with LT at 6 or QB if we trade back. Give me any of the top 3 tackles of this class and it will be a success

If we were to go QB I want Willis, but only if we red shirt him. If we drafted Willis and I was GM, I would sign Duane Brown for LT starting role, sign QB Fitzpatrick, and let Fitz and Darnold battle it out for starter, Willis is third string this year, and franchise leading QB next season. For the record I want LT at 6.

In before someone says “Not Panthers related, mods please lock thread” Happy Easter.

Lol he post like this at least 23 times every day. This is not related to anything going on with the Panthers

Lol that article literally said nothing.

Moton even though he has started about 2 games at LT

Fire this fug. It was time for us to move on from Rivera but at least the league respected us when he was our coach. Was a terrible hire Rhule was. I hate what the team has become.

I’m 100 percent behind a QB at #6 overall if we get a vet LT to partner with Christensen at LG. Then our line is complete AND we have hope for the future at QB. Start Darnold until the rookie is ready, and we are off to the races. The rookie will have good skill position players and a decent line at that point

I won’t be able to sleep at night now

Article: It was hardly a surprise to anyone last year when the Jets elected to move on from quarterback Sam Darnold in favor of drafting Zach Wilson. But that didn’t stop Darnold from making his feelings known to New York’s management on his way out the door. In an appearance on the Bussin’ with the Boys podcast hosted by Titans left tackle Taylor Lewanand free agent linebacker Will Compton, Darnold said he told the Jets they were “making a mistake” by sending him to Carolina to draft a new QB. “At the end of the day, it’s not my call,” Darnold said, via David Newton of ESPN. “If they don’t think I’m the guy, it is what it is.” Darnold is now in a similar position with the Panthers, as Carolina is bringing in six of the top quarterbacks in this year’s incoming rookie class for a pre-draft visit. But Darnold said in the same interview that if the Panthers choose another QB, he feels like another team will want him since he’s proven he can be a good quarterback. But it seems unlikely that there would be any robust market for Darnold’s services, given what the quarterback has put on film since the Jets selected him at No. 3 overall back in 2018. He struggled even last year with his fresh start, completing 59.9 percent of his passes for 2,527 yards with nine touchdowns and 13 interceptions. Darnold carries a career interception rate of 3.2 percent, tossing 54 touchdowns to 52 picks in 50 appearances with 49 starts. He’s also lost 11 of his 29 career fumbles. Time will tell if Darnold will find success in the league. But it’s hard to argue that the Panthers shouldn’t be looking for a different long-term solution in 2022. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/04/07/sam-darnold-told-jets-they-were-making-a-mistake-by-trading-him/

I do know if he is the long term answer……He most certainly is not. If you look at his body of work starting for over 4 years and think he can be a franchise QB I don’t know what to tell you. Will he be a very good backup? Absolutely, franchise QB? No way

We can’t even have a joke thread anymore on April fools? It’s not like we have had any stories going on this week. Title was changed in two minutes. Mods are becoming fun police

I’ll make this thread better. Will Sam Darnold…… A) Cry in only one game B) Cry in multiple games

If you think Fitt will keep the same draft picks after witnessing what we did last year…..you aren’t in touch with the team.

Mods are quick. Can’t even post a joke for less than 2 minutes before it gets ruined.

Hey….have a great weekend everyone! UNC AND DUKE on Saturday and beautiful weather on the way. I’m just here before I get poo thrown all over me
