Not panthers directly related

But live look at the Raiders dumpster fire

What do you mean by dumpster fire? Raiders actually had a good first round. You would be bad at your job if you didn't take a tremendous talent due to their agent......

Ferrell that high probably the biggest reach and shocker in the draft

Rapp that high over some of these other safeties after trading off Mack and Cooper and sending home all their scouts this week

 

Yeah maybe it isnt a dumpster fire

I’m good right where we are. Plenty of guys we like and you’ve got picks 78, 100 and 115. Plenty we can do with those and heck I’d be fine using next year’s 3rd to move up. FS, G, T and DL are strengths right now. Even CB. Next year’s draft is certainly not going to be as DL good and is supposed to be OL weak. If we shoot our wad, do it this year with next year’s picks. We are already at a point where shouldn’t have to worry about using next year’s 1st or 2nd.

@Marty2.0 If you trade next year’s third here’s about what you could do:

Move 47 to 33

Move 78 to 53-55

Move 100 to 64ish

Move 115 to 72ish

Move 100 and 115 to 56ish

Move 78 and 115 to 45

Given the possibility  that the Panthers could potentially need to enter the QB rat race next draft I don't feel comfortable  giving up picks there. 

Id actually prefer to ship off some 5-7 picks for future middlish round picks to partially prepare for that contingency.

Not me. If Cam is in trouble then we are picking high next year and the 3rd isn’t going to be enough to move us much anyway. The 2nd and future 1st would have to be used. If Cam is Ok then we just need a backup and we would have gotten a ton of value for a pick that ended up lower than expected. This draft suits us so I’d like to get as much as possible. If we stay put, I’m cool as well lots that I like left. 

Cam was in trouble last season and we picked in the literal middle of the draft.  3rd round picks have been hugely functional in first round movement.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
