Craziest Draft Ever

Based on some of the articles I have read over the past couple of days. I have a very strong feeling that a team is going to trade up into the top 5 and pick a QB.   This is going to start a domino effect on the other QBs.

Don't be shocked if Trubisky and Watson are gone before we pick.   This will benefit us greatly as we will have more to choose from.

Thoughts?

Had this discussion with my co-workers who are football guys as well.  This could be one of most unpredictable drafts I can recall.  Usually by this time theirs the clear #1 overall pick starting negotiating contract with the team picking first.  I think Garrett is the first pick but with all he rumors of top teams picking all wanting out of then top 10 or others trying to trade into the top 10. I've recently come to peace with I can't expect any certain scenario this year because no way of knowing what happens with the first seven picks.

It has been a head scratcher for sure. In some ways even more difficult than predicting the 30th pick as weird as that is. 

That's a very good way to put it. Normally the top ten is not to bad to predict and the last ten are pretty difficult. This time, they are all difficult.

I have said it for a while  that atleast 2 QBs will be gone in top 10 , this will push talent down for Panthers to move backup again after picking at 8.

Some form of RB/TR or RB/RB combo 

Panthers like quality > quantity 

I agree with you that QBs will go in the top 10. Not sure many because of trade rooms. However, what usually happens and happened last year. "This is the worst crop of QBs in years" some analysis says and last year I agreed.  What usually happens, team does play off that they will pass on a QB or "oh they aren't that good" amen QBs go way earlier than most expect.  

Prediction: atleast 2 QBs go in top 10.

If there is an early run on QBs, might it be worth it to trade down with a qb needing team like Cleveland or Buffalo and still get a player we want?

The only thing about dropping down is expecting that player to be there 4 picks later only to have another team jump up and take him. 

I hope we sit pat with our selections and take 4 of the top 100 and be happy.   I am betting we will be excited with our picks.

Christmas in April....

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.

      Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy

      Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
