They have picks at 1 and 4 and I have heard that they will take 0 QB's, 1 QB, and even 2 QB's.

I think now that the Giants will probably take Chubb, the Browns will go QB and Barkley

Of course they are the Browns......

What say you?

I don't think this is the case. I bet they either go with Nelson, Barkley or a QB over Chubb.

I figure getting rid of JPP and getting a guy who can play 34 or 43 would be the ticket now, who knows

the only thing i feel certain about is that they will screw it up somehow.

no matter how many great picks they have, the browns are going to brown.

New regime there.  They might actually be  different.  Hope so.  Those fans deserve it.

Maybe but I think that was more DG shedding a TERRIBLE contract to help them out in the future, I highly doubt he feels the need to instantly replace him. They have a hole there, yes, but they have even bigger holes. One thing we know is DG will go BPA. Very very possible he thinks that is Barkley. Browns may take him though and then there's Nelson. He's a complete beast at a HUGE need for them, and honestly will be every bit as good as Martin if not better. Well worth a top 5 pick. Possibility of QB depends on a few things. Does DG fall in love with a guy this year that he's sure can replace Manning in a year or two? If so that's the pick. And even if he doesn't fall head over heels for one, it's a great class and the question becomes do they think Eli has so little left that they need a replacement ASAP and that the best way that can happen is to take one 2nd, because in their view they likely won't have top 10 picks for a while, limiting their QB options down the road. I kinda think DG does grab a QB now, but even if not I see him ranking both Barkley and Nelson over Chubb. Maybe not but we'll see. Chubb is great and a sure top 10 pick in this draft but he's no Myles Garrett and I just don't really see DG having him as the 2nd best player in the draft particularly over Barkley, Nelson or a QB. We'll see how it turns out though.

this has been said how many times in the last decade(s)?

Dorsey is by far the most qualified GM they've been able to hire since they came back into the league. Still may not matter since ultimately poor ownership trickles down and looms over the entire organization but Dorsey is definitely more likely to succeed than anyone else they've had in that FO.

      Panthers coverage efficiency

      By NAS · Posted

      Call me crazy but if you’re in the bottom 7 in efficiency using Zone 84% of the time why not try something else? You paid Jaycee top 5 CB money use him more effectively. Zone is only efficient if you can generate a good pass rush to force a QB into mistakes otherwise you will get picked apart

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Good Lord this board has become a cesspool of negativity and where fandom becomes something twisted and unrecognizable.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.
