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 SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      The pattern of what we've done before, during and after the trade and selection of Bryce points to Tepper being involved in his selection and continued presence as the unquestioned starter. Pickett sucked in Philly, he just didn't start. If he hadn't sucked, Pittsburg wouldn't have gotten rid of him as a 1st round QB. Grier is so bad we already cut him once. He offers zero upside. There were FA QBs available last season that we could have gotten over Dalton who actually outperformed Bryce. The bar is low, ridiculously low. But we keep adding people who have proven they are below that bar.  Bryce is a bottom tier QB. We should be actively looking to improve the roster. You can say virtually no QB3s and few QB2s could challenge Bryce. That's true. But it also means there may be some that can. We're not looking for those guys. We should be. They could definitely challenge a KP or Grier.  The goal is winning seasons and winning the division. Relying on the Falcons to win so you can get into the playoffs with a losing record in a weak division isn't a recipe for success.

      Draft Week Rumors, Leaks and Media Draftniks Final Mocks

      Man oh man talk about getting it wrong coming And going. Have two viable arms and don’t stay the course so you draft a noodle arm that stands on his tippy toes to see, they make us go the full 5 years waiting for him to pan out.

      I guess it's so we don't have to force a UDFA QB to be in serious consideration for QB3.  QB4 will be just a camp arm and maybe a stash on the PS if he looks half way decent. They will not bring in competition for Bryce if you haven't figured that out by now.  He's either going to sink or swim.  The next QB with a legit arm on this team will be when we move on from Bryce.  I think this is the ramifications from the Darnold/Mayfield debacle.
