I have seen the future, and it is well with my soul

Woke up last night in a cold sweat. Confused and craving waffles, I reached for my pen and pad and scribbled down the visions that were given to me. I know not where these visions came from. I merely present them to you here, a humble messenger.

The Carolina Panthers trade the 8th pick for the Cleveland Browns 12th and 52nd. This is a steep price to pay for Cleveland, but they will want to move up and grab a QB, and they still will have the first pick in the second round. 

This move assures the Panthers will still get a tier 2 choice in round 1 like McCaffrey or Howard. This would also give the Panthers 3 selections in round 2. In this year's draft, that is pretty incredible. 

This, of course, is assuming all tier 1 prospects like Fournette, Adams, Lattimore, etc are all off the board.

I'm fine with it as long as we get at least one of those guys. I suppose Barnett would be a good consolidation if they get gone before our pick. The CM hype train is real. I think it's a risk trading back but that's the draft. I just really really want some real 1st round talent on the offensive side of the ball.

I've had this mocked for.a couple weeks now.

Not quite as steep as it may seem.

 

Browns Got that pick via a trade last year. Tenn Traded that pick plus a 3rd to the Browns for their #8 spot plus a 6th rounder moving up from the 15 spot.

now that is a 3 spot difference and by the pick value chart is a bit different in point value.  But they traded up for a OT.  Browns will be trading up for their franchise QB.  QBs always skew the scale just due the position of importance.  

 

If Mitch, the same guy people have been making rumors they like as a possibility at #1,falls to 8.

getting that #52 shouldn't be a problem at all and would actually be looking getting more

Long as we are assured either OJ Howard or McCaffrey!

I just don't see where they'd go between 8 and 12.  Every other team in there has way bigger pressing needs or no need for those 2

    • You're assuming just as well.   Morgan and Canales were hired 3 days apart.  I believe it was partially due to their connections in Seattle.  i believe Tepper wanted some familiarity with his GM and HC.  It is so easy to sit back and arm-chair QB over draft picks.  You don't know what the philosophy was going into the 2024 draft.  I believe Canales and Morgan were drafting for the future.  XL and Brooks point to that philosophy. Name me one GM that is 100% on draft picks.  Just one.  You're not going to find one.    I think year one picks weren't for what can you do for me now but Potential.   XL hasn't lived up to the hype of a 1st rounder.  I think we all can agree on that. However, there still is hope he comes around.  What I believe they saw in him was his speed after the catch.  He needs to get more consistent but when he gets the ball you kind of hold your breath just a second because if he gets free, he's gone.  The Brooks pick was a signing for the future, and no one could have guessed he would re-injure the same ACL.  This makes the pick look bad but Dallas was ready to draft him later that same round.  IMO we'll have to see what happens next season before we can call this a bust. Wallace has improved each season and for a third rounder has done well.  Sanders has shown flashes and considering the pick in the 4th round it wasn't a bad pick.  His sophomore season IMO was a little bit more productive.  Smith-Wade has been a good addition and has played well.  For a 5th round pick to get as much playing time as he has.  Most picks below round 3 should take a couple of years to get up to speed.  He's been a decent player.  Crumedy, no comment We turned Barrett into Jackson.  This was an amazing move and basically got a starting CB for a 7th round pick.  Pretty shrewd if you ask me. Coker, maybe the best Free Agent signing of the 2024 draft class. So, in short, you can't say that the draft was a bust.  It isn't a home run but all but one are still on the team and outside of Brooks have made contributions to wins.  2025 draft class has been much better with almost every pick making contributions this season.  Now take Fitterer's two years and compare them to Morgan and tell me that they have the same philosophy. 
    • He hasn’t led crap, he’s on loaded teams and a piece of the puzzle. And he’s he has improved drastically but it took the ultimate QB whispers in Shanahan and KOC. You put him on this Panther team and he’s back to normal Darnold 
    • Slavin and Jarvis week to week. Florida cheap shots took out our two best players.  I’d start KK so he can beat the brakes off someone.
