If it’s not a QB who do you want in the draft

Suppose the Panthers don’t trade for one or draft one. Who do you want? I think there are three clear candidates.

 

1. Micah Parsons - need a playmaker in the middle of the defense

 

2. Devonta Smith - we will probably lose Curtis and he is a stud.

 

3. Kyle Pitts - freak TE that we need to really open up this offense (besides the obvious of a QB)

I'm going to skip Sewell bc that is expected to be mentioned in here more than a handful. Rashawn Slater & Jalen Mayfield are the OTs to talk about.

Also--cue the linebacker jokes but Parsons is an elite talent and we'd be very lucky to land him if no QB.

But my biggest thing--I don't think it's a pressing need but both Chase & Devonta Smith are special talents.  They have the Jefferson, Beckham type feel to them with the aggressiveness towards the ball they have.  It's like the ball becomes magnetized midair to their spots on the field and it doesn't matter what the defender is doing.  They have such a good combination of route running, awareness and quickness.

We already have a lot of money going to LB...unfortunately. I would not throw another top 10 pick there.

Also went all defense last year...

The best option is to trade down.

Most important position is oline.

DBs can be had later on but I wouldn’t mind one.

Wouldn't mind trading way down and getting Pitts.

If we have to go defense I’s much rather take a top DE than Parsons.

      Joe Person: Panthers are NOT expected to extend Bryce Young before the 2026 season

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      But that's the point, if the locker room feels that way, then you're going to upset them by still keeping Bryce around and playing him over the Top 10 pick, as opposed to bringing in a vet to start until the rookie is ready. Again, it goes one of 3 ways... 1. Bryce plays well enough to earn an extension 2. Bryce still sucks and we draft his replacement who starts Week 1 with a new QB as his backup 3. Bryce still sucks, we draft his replacement in the 1st, but they start the season backing up a new vet QB who was brought in to be his mentor. With an OUTSIDE chance at a 4th option where Bryce plays well enough to convince the team to let him play out the 5th year option and then make a decision.  Which I can't see it happening, but there is still a non zero chance of that happening I guess. The only way we draft a QB next year and still have Bryce on the roster, is if we're taking someone in the middle rounds hoping to develop them as a long term backup to Bryce.

      I hear you. But I am not absolving Legette just because he is from my neck of the woods or anything else.  Tge comment was more about the fans uneven application of blame.  I do agree that there is a noticeable disconnect between him and the QB and that he might do better with a more polished and capable delivery man.  Abd don’t feel that they used XL right, or at least how I expected it to look.  And that could be a function of a reticent WB that shies away from that style of attack. I mean it was either him or Canales that pretty much eliminated downfield from the playbook - even while we see guys running free at times. It Could work if they commit to it.  Whoever isn’t committing.

      Lot of passion there.  Look, if Bryce plays down to the level that we feel the need to draft a QB high, you don’t think the locker room might be ready for anything that helps them win?   There are s lot of angles to this that could come into play depending on what happens this year.
