His line did block. In fact he has one of the best lines in all of college football. And he’s played poo competition. For these reasons no way I’d want him at #4, it’d be a reach. Now bottom of the first....if that can be finagled, I’d take it. 

I disagree. Full game from Wilson above. First few plays where he throws he was under quick pressure. He moved well in the pocket but didn't always hit. Looks like he was trying to play hero ball, that can be coached out. Kid has great arm talent, a quick release, and he can scoot. 

I would not be upset at all if we drafted him.

Wasn’t one of his lines best games for sure, quite possibly their worst. But they weren’t bad. And as a whole for the year, they have been on of the best was my main point.

I do like his talent, just not sure about #4. I think if he’s the guys the Panthers can get him further down.

There is no justification Lawrence will be good, even with good building blocks around him. There are way too many people that think every top QB from college is going to do good in the NFL. The reality they aren't. Since the Mannings we haven't seen a top 5 QB win anything. Most good QB's are 11th+ to about mid 3rd.

This is an awful argument.  First of all, you have to define "anything".  Goff has been to a Super Bowl and won a ton of games.  Wentz got a ring, even though he didn't play in the game, but it's pretty darn likely he would have gotten one if he hadn't been injured.  Luck had injury issues, but was quite good.  Rivers and McNabb were quite good in their day.  We all hate on Matt Ryan because he's a Falcon, but he's a pretty good QB most of the time.  Cam Newton did everything but hand the trophy to Rivera / Shula in 15.

You also have to keep in mind that those high pick QB's like that are going to really bad teams in most cases.  How many of those T5 QB's went to the Jets / Bengals?  A LOT!

If you believe in a guy, and you think he'll be gone before your next pick, you take him.  It's that simple.

Inside sources say tepper is demanding we trade up for Lawrence.

I'm really hoping Lawrence pulls an Eli and goes public saying he will ONLY play for us.  It would go a long way in driving down NY and JAX's leverage, so if this was indeed the case, it may not be as costly.

How is Wilson's competition continually mentioned as a "negative", but everyone ignores the fact that Lance plays in a LOWER DIVISION.  I mean, talk about lower quality competition!

If you think he's your franchise QB, you don't risk it and you take him. 

Rewatching that video showed me his accuracy deteriorated when he was pressured. That is an area of concern but not uncommon for most QBs. Will need to see more examples to see if this is a one game thing or if it's something he truly struggles with. 

Dude threw an absolute Mahomes-esque throw around 4:50 running to the right and whipping it across his body 25 yards downfield to an open receiver. That kind of crap gets you excited.

Hate to break it to you, but Lawrence has already pretty much indicated that he'll play for whoever drafts him.

Yeah like I said yesterday, there are some well respected analyst that are comparing wilsons arm to Mahomes.  That makes me sit up and take notice

      That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By PanthersNCSU · Posted

      The Saints being that high is the one that killed me. Chris Olave might not know his name at this point, Shaheed is coming off injury as well, so 31 year old Brandin Cooks might be your best WR...coming off a 260 yard season over 10 games. Kamara is Kamara, but didn't have 1,000 yards last year and is about to turn 30.  Toss in the fact that Taysom Hill may be the best QB on the team and I truly don't understand Barnwell's thoughts beside seeing the names "Olave" and "Kamara" and going yep, that sounds better than "Chuba" and "Thielen".

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By TD alt · Posted

      Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.
