The people that wanted a white QB are surprising happy with the pick.

Shocking. Go back and read some of their posts before and after the 2011 draft.

Atrocious team building by Tepper, Fitts, and Rhule.

Panthers = Browns 2020's

And you idiots will suck their dick the entire way.

Our only hope for this franchise now is that the offensive line will be so bad that Darnold will lead us to 0-16 because we don't have picks to trade up next year.

Absolute TRASH pick. TRADE THE GOD DAMN PICK IF YOU DON'T WANT FIELDS.

Taking a CB there is so fuging beyond stupid. AT LEAST TAKE THE OT. THAT WAS SO fuging STUPID.

0 HOPE for this teams future.

They have no idea what positional value is.

Only people left watching the panthers after this year will be delusional fanboys too stupid to form an opinion that isn't parroting the front office.

Quick someone post the bust rate of CBs, and then post the resign rate of CBs.

Then cry because realizing that this team is going nowhere fast.

Best part is next year when we go 7-9 and the team has no chance of getting q QB.

Sam fuging BLOWS.

CBS MEAN NOTHING, NOTHING.

THEIR BUST RATE IS INSANELY HIGH, THEY COST TOO MUCH TO RESIGN IF THEY DO WELL, AND YOU CAN ALWAYS FIND THE IN FREE AGENCY.

THIS TEAM HAS 00000000 ANAYLYTICS. 000000000000000000000000000000000000

VERGE " I GOT IT RIGHTR GUYS LOOLOL GGGGGG LET'S GO" 

Reality "I THREW EVERYTHING TO THE WALL BUT HORN AND NOW I'M PRETENDING TO BE AN INSIDER".

WELCOME TO THE BROWNS LEVEL OF MISMANAGEMENT.

TAKING A fuging CORNER TOP 10 WITH AN ELITE QB PROSPECT SITTING THERE WHILE TRADING AWAY PICKS FOR A TRASH ASS BUST QB.

fug TEPPER, fug Fitts, and fug MATT RHULE.

Absolutely re-fuging-tarded.

A CB MEANS NOOOOOOOOOOOOOTHING. ELITE CBS BECOME AVAILABLE EVERY OTHER OFF-SEASON BECAUSE THEY COST TOO GOD DAMN MUCH TO RESIGN AND TEAMS KNOW THEY CAN MOVE ON, AND GET 90% OF THEIR PRODUCTION FROM 2-3 ROUND PLAYERS.

STUPID fuging TEAM.

Cool story bro

Best part of the next season is dumb fugs like you can't go "NOOOO HURNEEYYYY WHYYYYY" for every loss the Panthers have. You'll have to either find another scapegoat (most likely because you're fuging stupid, and have a hard time thinking for yourself) or actually have an informed opinion.

Sam Darnold a recent draft bust is worth building around but Justin Fields can only be compared to Vince Young Michael Vick and Jamarcus Russell? I don't know what the future holds for either of these kids but this will be an interesting take to revisit in January.

You have to keep in mind some Panthers fans have been waiting a decade now for a QB with a complexion that matches their own.

Lotta red flags on Fields.  You folks would give all you have for an unknown with good athleticism than for a known player who was in a terrible situation.

I get it, but I think the thing to do is build around Darnold to see what he has.  Is Fields a generational talent?  They said that about Vince Young and Michael Vick.  They said it about Jamarcus Russell and Ryan Leaf. 

They said it about Cam, and then they did not protect him or give him weaponry. 

I like Fields--I really do--but let's keep it between the lanes.

You're starting to remind me quite a lot of the Cam naysayers before the 2011 draft. The same ones that wanted Clausen or Blaine Gabbert ignoring all their obvious faults for some reason.

You'd think that after last season some of you would finally take Bill's nuts out of your mouth

Oh you mean the season where Bill took a last minute Covid Cam, no offensive weapons, and an opted out defense and won more games than Carolina?

If you think about it, Bill B needed a QB and signed Cam.  He still needs a QB.  He played Darnold 6 times over the past 3 years at least, and he did not go after him when he became available.  Of course, I think BB is way overrated and rather stupid as a game coach because he has always had the GOAT, and maybe NYJ did not want to trade in the division, but it gives me pause...

pause, not paws.

Did you seriously just say Bill was 'rather stupid' as a 'game coach'.

Yep and he are ahead of them. Two of the most connected people in the league has us (Breer and King) taking Fields, people inside our organization think Fields is a generation talent 

 

And Vegas had us tied for favorites 

 

 

 

 

We get it you want an o-linemen, you like Darnold, but sorry to break it to you as of right now all the signs are pointing to Fields. 

The only problem is our division rival that could, arguably should, fug us out of Fields. Either by taking him or trading back, it would fug us over so much.

It's going to be sad when this thread has to be made next year. 

It's a repeat. Last off-season the people with any objective reasoning saw all we were paying for Teddy, including losing compensation picks. This off-season it's Sam for 'basically a third', meanwhile it's really 3 picks (including a second, and if you argue otherwise please come back to this thread in a few days after the draft and reason how it's still somehow counts as a 'basically a third' when it's effectively an in-season pick at that time), cap space, and quite a lot more cap space if they pick up his fifth year option.

However, the truly sad this is Sam is much much much more of a gamble with Teddy. Last off-season those that knew Teddy, knew, and tried to explain what we were getting. This off-season it's similar, though I guess there's an outside (very outside) shot Sam somehow sheds all his negative traits, and makes use of his athleticism. Though that is absurdly unlikely.

And I got banned for pointing out this clown didn't have it last season.

It was so bad last season that a lot of the members on this forum were twisting 20 yard throws (the equivalent of a bowling lane) as deep balls, and giving Teddy every excuse as to why he couldn't finish a drive.

I expect Slater to be a real target if the Panthers trade back. Though maybe not with all the smoke of us being linked with CB prospects.

I just wish there was a combine this year.

It's possible, though every time I've read a Miami message board this off-season it's WR/TE, with them unrealistically believing that Chase will somehow fall. I imagine their front office are looking at Chase/Pitts, though with Atlanta and the Bengals that's become very unrealistic.

Huddlers want the shiny new toy at the toy store (new unproven QB in draft) rather than a used toy that you picked up a the local yard sale (Sam Darnold with Jets). But hey, one man's trash is another man's treasure. Hopefully we got a treasure. 

Panthers strategy for finding the franchise QB is hope and pray.

CeeDee was one of the targets had we traded back. 

That would have been such an odd move. How many elite targets do the Panthers need?
