For anyone uninterested in the fifth round...

I hope we move up to the 4th. 

With what?  The 2nd to last pick of the draft at #252?   Don't see it happening.   Saw someone talk about throwing in our 3rd round pick for next year presuming we're getting a 3rd round comp pick for J-NO.  Dang, using a 3rd to pick a player in the 4th?  Getts is getting crucified already, can't imagine how that would go down!

I would absolutely like to trade our 3rd round comp next year to move back up into the 4th.  The comp pick is near the 4th round anyway, and I would really like a guy out of this draft I feel can make an impact in year 1.  Butler is a maaaaaaybe, but he's still an unknown commodity behind two guys already on the bench in Soliai and Love who have played very well either for us (Love) or other teams (Soliai).

I really want Devontae Booker or Alex Collins and I don't feel good about them lasting to our pick in the 5th... Trade next year's comp, next year's 7 and this year's 7 if it'll add anything.  Toss in next year's 6 if it'll help.  Gettleman doesn't value those late picks anyway.

I'm pretty sure you cannot trade comp picks.

It's really hard to trade a compensation pick that hasn't been awarded yet.

Eagles already did it.  This has been discussed ad nauseum here.  You can trade a future comp pick with the condition that if you don't get what you expect to, you give a different pick (for example, our actual 3rd round pick).  And Gettleman seems to be playing FA right now with the intent on maintaining that 3rd round comp pick we're set to get for Norman.  Doubt he picks anyone up before the 12th.

I believe Gman will trade into the forth using that 7th whatever damage that does, then take another corner or safety. Harlan Miller still there. Couple of safety prospects we have been linked to as well.

I would like Cash (but not over Booker or Collins).  I WOULD have liked Miller if we hadn't already taken those two CBs we already took.

    • Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers. 
    • Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production. 
    • I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
