Person pointed out that even if it does, they're in a very good position to trade back if someone else wanted to move into that spot and take a quarterback.

We could get them a 3rd or something along those lines and they'd basically be getting a pick for free with us taking a QB and then them taking whoever they would've taken at #7 at #8. #7 plus next year's 3rd is what the value chart says. #7 plus this year's 3rd would give them considerably over chart value.

Trading Teddy is going to require us giving up draft capital. I said this before the Stafford trade.

At this point it makes way more sense to keep him and draft a QB. Either way we can cut him next year without much worry. I worry way more about CMC and Shaqs contracts then I do about Bridgewaters.

I know the team is gung-ho to get a quarterback this year, but I'm increasingly less convinced it's going to be possible to get a true quarterback of the future.

it feels like if we do acquire one, it's gonna be somebody around the quality of Mac Jones.

I'd honestly rather accumulate future draft capital and go after Howell or Rattler next year. Jones just ain't it. He's likely a Goff or Cousins at best.

The Rams haven't had a 1st round pick since 2016 yet they've had four consecutive winning seasons. That's the type of consistent success a Panthers fan could only dream about.

god forbid this organization ever does something like that the way this community beats off over panthers first round picks

That probably depends on two things, the first being how patient David Tepper is willing to be.

But the second, and more significant factor, what does Matt Rhule really think about Mac Jones?

To the "But the Lions are going to draft our QB!!!!", crowd.   You can officially chill the heck out and pour an ice cold bucket of water over your heads.

Believe it or not, Adam Schefter says that's still possible.

What worries me more though is we thought that somebody else who wants a quarterback badly trades up with them.

A couple of different sources of pointed out that the Lions would be in a really good spot to trade down now.

Man don’t say that. I can’t stand another year of Trashwater under center. I am still positive the Panthers will trade up or get Lance.

San Francisco and Denver are the only two that come to mind unless someone comes from way back in the pack.  While both of those teams have "iffy" QB situations, they are not dire situations.  Both of those teams could just as likely go into 2021 with their current guy.

It's not an absolute that we go into another year with Bridgewater. Just we might not get a franchise guy.

It's also possible we get another bridge guy / reclamation project like Trubisky.

      2026 NFL Combine Thread: 2.26.26 - 3.1.26

      Ok--I have seen some sample items, and I would like to see something (if possible) measures on field intelligence--maybe how quickly you can grasp a playbook or absorb film session adjustments...Back when we had Morrison as team president and Hurney as GM, I offered to assess (as part of my research in education requirement at a University) emotional intelligence and learning styles of players to help coaches teach more effectively.  Morrison loved it and contacted me about it.  Hurney was not interested, and it fell through the cracks.  My pitch?  If only 50% of first-rounders become successful NFL players and that number drops significantly, can you tell me that you are effectively measuring talent?  Morrison thought it was a good point and wanted to do something that might improve long-term success rates--that would impact the cap management, etc.  Marty, according to Morrison, said he was not interested at this time and if so, he would want a football guy to do it.  (I told Morrison that I played in college and Hurney, a sports reporter at one time, did not. He told me that Hurney played as a Guard in college--who knew?) Any way, about that time, Morrison left (2017) and the idea was dropped.  I reached back out a year later or so to Marty was still not interested.  A few days later, his wife accused him of assault or something, so I dropped it.

      Pretty sure they still do the Wonderlic they just don't publicly release the scores.

      I just thought he was under the radar--but thanks for opening our eyes to him.  I think we should have better measures for intelligence--such as reaction time, angles, etc. Legette is raw as heck, for example, and his RAS was very high.  We used to do the Wonderlic (which was not great) but to know how effectively a player makes on field decisions would be great.
