Panthers will try to Trevor. Big time.

I expect the Panthers to do everything they possibly can to trade up and land Trevor Lawrence.

Tepper is a long term thinker and landing the best college qb prospect in a decade is the very definition of long term thinking.

Moreover, having a Carolina kid lead this team with such built in fan support is an immediate and substantial cash cow. Can you imagine the mania and jersey sales? My word. 

I feel Trevor is plan a,b, and c for these reasons.

Well if we are sitting at 3 or 4 we will be in a much better situation to bargain for TL.

Especially 3rd.

Also, Trevor will have a say as well. A prospect this coveted hasn't happened in a long ass time. He could have some say in what happens. You have to think between. NYJ, Jax, and Car the top choice for him is obvious. The home team that has at least been to two Superbowls.

Yes because they would still be in position to get any of the remaining QBs.

Maybe at 3 but the cost is going to be too much IMO either way.

It's going to be fun watching the scouting process this year! I don't know which QB we will end up with but there are easily 3, at this time, that look like really good prospects for us.

It would take an insane amount of draft capital for the Jags to give up the pick. The Jets? Maybe they could have been talked into it. But the Jags GM is smart. He's not trading Trevor. 

 

It's time for Panthers fans to face the music. The minute we signed Teddy we screwed our chances of getting Trevor.

Look I really want Trevor too. But the amount of picks you'd have to trade would otherwise decimate your team. It's not like we're an amazing team that is only a QB away. We have a lot of holes otherwise. 

This is coming from someone that is 100% sold on QB in round 1

    • It's not even a particularly nuanced opinion, yet it seems out of reach for so many.
    • I don’t think he can be great. For me he tops out as starter maybe make the playoffs, stuff like that. I would have been okay with that kind of player as a placeholder but you don’t invest the time and assets we did and be happy with that.  On the cure,If a guy has mechanical flaws but otherwise is enticing, you let someone else make the mistake of taking him in the top of the 1st. If he doesn’t get taken you can pick him up 2nd or 3rd day and try to develop him (off the bench not starting).  The risk/reward with Bryce was horribly misjudged. I didn’t want to trade like that in the first place because I didn’t see the generation talent that justifies that type of move, but once it was done CJ was the better gamble. No doubt. 
    • That's what I mean. If you claim to possess some super knowledge about the QB position from a previous non-football but football related job, wouldn't you want to expound upon that to support this "everyone doesn't know anything about being a QB" thesis? The rest is just summed up by stating that there are a lot of variables to a QB being successful. Yeah....I mean that isn't earth shattering.  While there is certainly a lot of luck involved in all manners of success, consistent success with the variables around you also changing on a regular basis is usually fairly conclusive.  Is Trent Dilfer the same as Tom Brady? Is Nick Foles the same as Patrick Mahomes? I supposed based on the OP's arguments, they are. That's not really the way it turned out, however.  The NFL isn't unlike most other jobs or even other sports. The cream typically does rise to the top on a more consistent basis. Is it accidental that premier poker players seem to win or perform very well on a consistent basis, give that any individual hand is largely luck?
