Since the majority of you were wrong on Baker Mayfield. Would it be dumb to Draft Kyler Murray?

I mean, with Cam having lingering shoulder issues, and the NFL becoming geared toward the offense. 

Would this be a totally stupid idea at this point? Or make sense for our long term future? 

[Carl Spackler]

It would be a stupid idea. If we keep Ron, we’ll get the first pick in 2020 and can go for Tua if we need a QB. I loathe Alabama, but he’s gonna be a patch of hell.

What does being wrong on Mayfield have to do with this decision?

[SCO96]

I think we definitely need to consider drafting a QB in this years draft. I wouldn't consider Kyler for two reasons.

1) He's a talented baseball player. I thought he was already signed to a minor league contract by a MLB team, but I could be wrong. If he's not fully committed to the  NFL team it could cause a problem down the road.

2) I don't think Cam is in such bad shape that we need to draft a QB in the 1st or 2nd round THIS OFF SEASON. As talented as Murray is, he won't make it out of the 2nd round. In fact, since he won the 2018 Heisman I can't see him lasting beyond the 1st round. He could possibly go in the top 10.

Does of anyone know of any college QB prospects expected to go in middle rounds of the draft (rounds 3-5) that you think the Panthers should look at for 2019 since we really can't afford to pick a QB earlier than that with all of the holes on our team?

lol i wasn't wrong about baker. everyone was wrong about rosen. I still thought Darnold would be the best after watching tape. He's already forgotten.

[Mr. Scot]

Justin Herbert fans (I know there are a few on here) are out of luck.  He's staying in school.

It'd be dumb to draft him considering he said he's going to play baseball

[bigdog10]

I believe Murray was drafted by the A’s and is said to be pursuing that as his career. 

 

[Cdw]

Drafting any QB before we get our O line fixed would be pointless imo.

[ncfan]

Considering he is going to play baseball

It would be a dumb idea

[AggieLean]

Murray should absolutely stick with baseball, and never give CTEball another look.

With that being said, I’d love him here as Cams eventual replacement 

[luke nukem]

wouldnt mind it in the 7th just to have the guys rights? idk how that works honestly, but I dont see Kyler murray playing in the NFL but rather the MLB, now if they go on to beat bama and win the title, he might have a change of heart when that confetti is raining over him, but for now its safe to say he will be cashing fat checks and hitting dingers in the MLB.

No he’s not, he’s said numerous times he’d love to play in the NFL and also that he’d love to play both ala Bo Jackson. 

I think he’d be a great pick, doesn’t have the swagger of Mayfield but is a more accurate passer and more dynamic runner. His height is one obvious red flag but his pinpoint accuracy, quick release and mobility make him an intriguing prospect. Durability is a concern for me. Hate OU will get destroyed Saturday thanks to their middle school grade D.  

If he did decide to pursue football he’d have to pay back what he made with the A’s from last I heard. He actually made more than his coach Lincoln Riley this year.
