You take Sewell. It’ll be a make it or break it year for Teddy with a legit offensive line, the best RB in football and even if we don’t bring Samuel back we have two of the better receivers in the game coming back. Maybe with more consistency on the left side Teddy would take more chances. If not, we lose a lot again and will be around to pick the #3 QB of the next class.

It would be a good problem to have. If Cincy has 4 would they offer some sweet draft capital to trade up one spot?

I don't think they would.  I would certainly love if they did in that situation.  It would be basically paying us to not draft Sewell who is their clear top target.  Unfortunately, our need for a QB is pretty darn clear at this point, so it seems likely Cincy would just stand pat.

If we draft Sewell, Cincy's pick becomes more valuable to lower teams who want a QB.  If we draft a QB, Cincy gets their LT.  No motivation for them to move really.

Never bank on who may be there or a trade. Get who you want without mortgaging more than necessary.

I’d go Wilson easy. Wasn’t last year the generational can’t miss on the top LT prospect draft? Becton, Wirfs, Wills, etc? I feel like I hear that every draft.

Every year is some 'generational' talent.. draft jargon..

If you have the chance to draft a franchise QB without having to give up draft picks you take it 10/10 times. Trent Scott has played LT the majority of the season for us and we have still had a decent line and have been in almost every game that we have lost. QB is the deciding factor on winning or not in the NFL.

This is a great question, because Sewell could very well be the best player in this draft. 

I still think you go with whichever QB they like best. Likely Lance or Wilson. 

Sewell is a great prospect but Lawrence is the best player in the draft.

That said I’d go QB. Having Sewell at LT doesn’t make Teddy a better QB. Maybe he’s sacked a little less but it doesn’t make his ducks to Moore go faster and more accurate. Why keep wasting our talented players with a mediocre QB?

Groom a QB and if you don’t want to save $8M on Teddy, let him get whacked more, keep losing close games and get a LT next year. Extend Moton and go G on day 2 and day 3. We’ve at least got 1 5th comp, so draft 3 potential G/Cs to groom instead of pulling UDFAs and hope we get a Norwell. Add some other draft pieces and live through another Teddy suck year and get ready for prime time starting 2022.

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By strato · Posted

      We’re in a pickle. My best hope is we protect him and can run the ball vs most Ds and the WRs are healthy so he has every chance to not look like what he looked like in too many games last year.

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.
