I think Panthers will not wait until next year to draft the QB of the future, but will do that this year by drafting Herbert and let him learn behind Bridgewater for a year (or two).  The rest of the draft picks will be used for Defense.  

Marty has shown a lot of interest in Herbert.   Now he may be posturing for potential trade down opportunities to acquire more picks but I think the more likely scenario is that he gets drafted by the Panthers.

How would you feel about that if it happens?

In all honesty, I don’t follow CFB that closely and don’t know how I feel about this. If he looks like a sure-fire franchise QB (or as close as possible), then I hope the Panthers do it. We have seen this team with a true franchise QB in Cam and without one in a bunch of others, and know for sure that the Panthers are doomed in the latter case.

Just now, Mr. Scot said:

I'll grant it's possible.

I've seen both positive and negative projections regarding his NFL career. Me? I'm undecided.

Based on his physical skills? Yeah.

Based on what he was able to actually show in that Oregon offense? Ugh.

If we draft him then I'll really be hoping that offense was holding him back and he's capable of a lot more than he was able to show.

The good thing about our current situation is that I think he's a guy who probably needs to sit and learn for a year if not two. I don't think it'll be pretty if he has to start from day one.

I think it would require him somehow dodging the picks that come before us. I think he'll go well before then, but once Burrows and Tua are gone, perhaps teams will take a breath.

If he's sitting there at 7 when we pick, I'm not going to complain if we run to the podium with the pick. I also won't be surprised if someone offers us a ton of picks in trade for it.

Still, I think we're getting Brown at 7.

Cindy, Miami, and the Chargers are all set to draft a QB and develop them. I see no way Burrow or Tua reaches us, and unless the Chargers surprise everyone and go Love over Herbert, he will not be available at #7 which would be fine with me because Simmons or Okudah, or Brown would be a great pick.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      Everyone knew the catch was secured and didn't move. That was clear to the entire audience. The only ones who thought it wasn't a catch were in the NYC home office. They knew they'd just offer an apology the next day.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
