The "Let's get a QB in the 1st round" group


Panther Believer

Recommended Posts

Hear me out. First I want to say I'm not a Teddy B stan be any stretch of the imagination lol. However; I know the top 2 QB's will be off the board by the time we are picking. With that being said I just don't see it being a smart idea reaching for a QB that everyone is wanting to sit his rookie year. The best scenario IMO would be trade back to one of the QB needing teams that will be picking mid teens and accumulate draft capital for 2022 draft. Select your CB1 like a Caleb Farley or starting OT like Christian Darrisaw and fill the holes on roster. Then when 2022 Draft comes around with its loaded QB class we make the move to trade up for our guy why also having the luxury to dump Teddy B's contract at that point, freeing up a lot of money for us to be able to pay our corner stones (Brian Burns, DJ Moore, Taylor Moton, etc), because we have a QB on a rookie deal with a much more solidified roster built around him. I would be totally fine with us picking a QB this year (not named Mac Jones/Trask lol) but I can't help but be terrified with the young QB's development with the poo show we our going to have at OL next year. None of us want another individual to endure the treatment Cam got with having to run for his life, and put the team on his back week in and week out I feel like we can all agree on. Also, if you think Drew Lock and Hamler tore us up, just wait till A-Rod and Devante Adams take the field on prime time against us this week and watch how exposed our DB's will look lol. Many of you will be pounding the table for Surtain by the end of this week if I had to guess. If we have a great defense we don't need Teddy to be a super hero (Look at the colts young flourishing defense) and opens the playbook up much more. Just food for thought and wanna hear your guys and gals objective thoughts on the matter. Keep Pounding & Dilly Dilly.

I too am a best player available kind of guy.  Position need can influence evaluation for "best" so if we go QB with that in mind then fine.

Exactly where I am, I feel very good for where we are and not being in the boat of ABSOLUTLEY needing a QB. However if Fields drops to us with Zack Wilson's stock sky rocketing as of late you have to get him I feel like.

I don't like reaching for a quarterback either, but we'll need to see our draft position and who's available before we know whether a pick is a reach.

For sure, just wanted to bring the topic up to see what everyone thought on the matter. Man though, Zack Wilson and a healthy CMC in the backfield does sound oh so nice.

It doesn't matter whether the top 2 QBs are gone, if the top 4 QBs are gone, or if no QBs have gone off the board.  It's a simple as this: if there is a QB available at your pick that you think is going to be a franchise QB,  you take that QB.  If you don't, you go elsewhere, whether that be picking another position or trading out of the spot.

I will admit to pondering the question of if, for whatever pure fantasy of a reason you can come up with, Penei Sewell were to be available at our pick, would you take him over your favorite non Trevor Lawrence quarterback choice?

No. Sewell is a great LT prospect but he'll be Joe Thomas for us if we don't find a QB.

No doubt you take him. If the Bengals don't get him Joe Burrow will be in the club crying lol

Great point. Joe Thomas was amazing. The Browns team that drafted him was still poo. Poo with a great LT, but poo nonetheless. 
 

It’s a QB driven league, and Teddy ain’t it. Next year we won’t be drafting this high again. The right QB is there and he checks all the evaluation boxes, you pull the trigger.

I get the point but to compare Teddy B to the QB's the brown had starting while Joe Thomas was there seems fairly harsh lol. Just to name a few of the top of my head : Deshone Kizer, Brady Quinn , Brandon Weeden, Colt Mccoy, Cody Kessler lol. Like mentioned above, definitely not a believer in Teddy as the future guy but we can't poo on his name that hard. Especially with a healthy CMC for the check down god lol.

    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet. 
    • oh now that's what you call Mother Fiuggure fans the ones that always have this fierce protective shield around the team no matter if they win or lose  & to be honest there is nothing really wrong with being a Mother Fiugguer fan they just have a different meaning or sense of what a true fan really is                                                 ☺️
