NFL Executive: Myles Garrett May Not Be The First Overall Pick

So, the Panthers have been in the flirt scenes of a possible trade-up to 2. With the mindless, lazy media writers out there, they assumed the Panthers must be targeting Fournette with such. It seems like a lot of the media are assuming we're really high on Fournette and would've likely been the target of a trade up to 2.

The following shatters that theory and brings to light a logical one. Have a look:

If Garrett isn't the number 1 overall pick, the Panthers better get the phones ready and armed. I fully believe it'd be worth giving up whatever is necessary to get the next Julius Peppers of the NFL. I'm a huge supporter of this, and while it's a pipe dream, it's certainly a nice one to have.

UPDATE: 

50/50 in Cleveland's camp. Let the smoke rise.

To put in perspective the value of trading up from 8 to 2, take last year as example:

What I learned from this is that...

1. NFL Execs are uninformed, none of them really knows what is going on, and contradict each other all the time.

2. The draft needs to hurry up and get its titanus tushy over here so we can stop speculating over this.

No thank you are giving the farm up. Not wise. In 3 years everyone is complaining about lack of offensive line or whatever else.

We honestly don't have that much holes. I would not be opposed to getting a generational physical specimen when we have a lot already patched up.

Imagine this on the same line:

These two rushing the passer... oh boy.

SF would be stupid not to take him

Disagree-they have multiple needs and far bigger needs than DE.  Their best play is getting what they can for the pick.  Garrett visited the Jaguars recently-who knows whether they think he could fall to 4 or if they're interested in trading up, but Garrett to the Browns at 1 is absolutely no sure thing.

      BREAKING!!! Panthers signing Packers LT Rasheed Walker

      The OL has certainly been better than the trainwreck it was three or four years ago. As far as competitiveness let's apply some realism and clarity here. Quite a bit of the competitiveness in 2025 came from the defensive side of the ball which gave up the most points in league history the year before and was one of the bottom 5 units in terms of salary cap allocation for 2025 while the OL was top 3. We had the 26th passing offense last year. And if not for a herculean couple of games from Rico Dowdle we don't back our way into the division title or make the playoffs because we went 4-6 in our final ten games including being swept by the Saints who were starting a rookie 2nd round pick most of us mercilessly mocked when they selected him. In conclusion yes we've seen a difference. The question now is will the investment pay off the way we want. But the only way that happens is if we field a top 15 offense. If we can't even crack the top 20 then there need to be some very warm seats across the board. And I would hope just about anyone here should agree with that.

      These Spurs are lowkey loaded.  If healthy, they could win it all this year (#2 in the West right now). I still think we’ve gotta keep Kalk on Wemby; he’s not getting completely dominated like every other NBA center.

      Am I the only one who doesn't understand this fan bases infatuation with adding a high end TE? Especially when we have some bigger bodies in T-Mac and Coker who can slide into the slot at times and provide the big dependable target over the middle that most teams use their TE for. I mean, sure, it would be nice to have one of those elite TE's, but I feel like that's a position your better off going cheap with a committee who each bring something different to the table while spending our cap room on the more important positions. I like the potential we saw from Evans this year, Sanders could be a best if he can stay healthy, and Tremble has improved as well.  Just feels like spending high draft picks or cap space on other needs and more important positions is a better use of our resources than splashing on a TE in the draft or FA. Are those guys on the level of the Bowers or McBride's of the world?  Of course not, but we also are paying a fraction of the cost on our TE room than they are, and we're able to use that money for other needs.
