I've only been able to make the trip there for three games. That was one. (Happily, the other two were great games and Panther wins.)

That we're drafting long-haired freaky people?

Yeah, but a Byrd in the hand ...

Poor guy has to live with that name plus have his coach say he had his balls removed.

Wow. He's in the news because he attacked the news to say he didn't want to be in the news.

Thank you for posting that. It was very entertaining! (It's much like reading the humorous reasonings of the Flat Earth Society.)

Have you decided to retire my jersey yet?

Why? THIS IS TERRIBLE! I think we're gonna really regret this decision. (I don't really think that, but this is the only thread with no one complaining. Didn't want to break tradition.)

It is amazing how quickly things change. 4 days ago, we had Eason, a still injured Corral, and the worry that no decent QB would be there at our pick.

I kinda think some here got so used to having #2 and #3 type QBs as our starter, that they're now forgetting Red's just our backup, and a perfect one to have at that.

I know, but I'm referring to the round robin in our division: Dalton coming from Saints to Panthers Bucs #1 pick Winston with the Saints Panthers failed QB Mayfield to the Bucs And our previous QB Heinicke to the Falcons. Now one NCFS team just needs to sign Matt Ryan for $2.83 million and we'll have a perfect storm.

Ha. So we'll have Dalton, the Saints'll have Winston, Bucs are wanting Mayfield , and Falcons have Heinicke!

That would give us the opportunity to cut him next year with a hearty "Get the @&% off our field!"

I know, but just hang in there.

Props to you! I have no issue with strong opinions on here, but I have a lot of respect for the few that'll come back and acknowledge that they were wrong on something.

Have the Panthers played this well? Yes.

Crazy that we lose a player that we want AND that wants to be here because he's too valuable for the Bears to agree to the trade without it. (I still agree with the trade, but hate that this was a must for it to happen) Hopefully he will follow the path of Moose and Pep. I'd love for him to end up back here sometime.

Thank you! That video was extremely helpful (if the info is correct-varying opinions, I'm sure). My concern is the "what if we're wrong?" issue. If we choose Stroud and we're wrong, we end up with a QB that's not as good as hoped so we have to focus on building a better team around him. If we choose Bryce and we're wrong, We have another situation like Corral; a QB who can't even be on the field. If we go this route, I'll be happy to have him, but It'll feel like watching Alex Smith's return.

"So we're gonna get the top pick AND a ham sandwich?"

No need to get huffy and puffy about it.

I feel for you! A few years ago, I did an "Ain't likely and you may not want it, but what would you do" thread. I got the same as you; a million replies saying 'it ain't likely' and 'I don't want it.'

1 and 39 for 2 and 12

I did some math for the heckuvit. According to the overthecap.com chart, our original 7 picks would've been worth 5515 points. The 6 we have now are worth 6450. That means we go into this draft with the equivalent of our original 7 picks plus one late round 2nd. If this means anything to you, you are a nerd. (But at least you're not the one who did the math.) BTW, everything I find says we have pick 145, not 147.

You may be right, but I feel they DO know who they want. But they are being smart enough not to say because that leaves open the possibility of still getting him with a trade down.
