Opinions: if Lawrence is gone, what's the plan then?

Really? Even if our picks from last year turn out, we are full of holes. It’s going to be another draft where there isn’t a wrong position to draft. 

With that said we are more than likely picking first. This team lacks serious talent. More so than I have ever seen.

I’ve done preliminary research on Lawrence and Lance. My buddy at work is an Ohio St fan and says we want no part of Fields. (Not that that is the definitive word or anything, just what I have to go off of at the moment.)  The gap between Lance and Lawrence is HUGE.  Lance doesn’t look like an NFL QB to me.  He doesn’t make difficult throws, he mostly lobs it down field. His throws didn’t seem particularly precise, he locks onto receivers, a lot of his impressive plays are bulldozing 180 lbs linebackers and that isn’t gonna happen in the NFL. Simply put he doesn’t seem to have command of the game and the position like Lawrence. If we don’t get the #1 pick we need to trade whatever we need to to trade up for Lawrence. I still have to do my own research on Fields though, so maybe I’ll change my mind when I do.

Lawrence is probably worthy of the number one and would start next season.  Fields and Lance might need to sit behind Teddy for a year.

If we pick number one, its a no brainer.  If we pick 5-10, then I would take Lance over Fields at this point.  Much higher ceiling for me, he just needs to be able to work the middle of the field with what the NFL is going to throw at him.  After a year of sitting behind Teddy, he should be ready to go

Any thoughts on Kyle Trask? Could he be this years Joe Burrow coming out of nowhere to become a top draft pick. He threw 6 TDs against Ole Miss this weekend. 

For me its more nuanced than looking at the numbers.  I have seen 90% of TL games so I feel I have a good take on him.  I have seen much less of Fields, Lance so I really cannot say.  I flipped around a bit yesterday and saw Trask for probably the 2nd time and he looked good.  His system seems to be wide open so that probably factors in to his stats a bit

    • This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.
    • Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
