I’m not a huge fan of Lance because he seems more boom or bust than most QBs in this class but I’d absolutely take him in a heartbeat over Jones, Trask, Newman or Mond. 

I don't agree with your boom-or-bust theory! Lance arguably has the highest upside of this class. He has strength, arm talent, good decision making, and mobility. The only things that he really needs are teaching, time and experience!

A lot of people don't think he's going to be.

I am one of them, but I imagine everything has a price.  Still, if we had one missing piece, I would be making a call--if we were new Orleans, for example.  But we have no OL, no TE, and No MLB.  Our CBs are weak and our FS is Boston.

Coaches spent all week talking about how good Jones and the other QBs were, then after the game they're like... nah, we're not hot on any of them being first rounders.

We'll have Jones in the first or the second.

"Now Mac, that ankle looks pretty bad to me. Maybe you'd better sit this thing out."

"Nah, Coach Rhule, I'm fine. Look I can run, I can pivot, I can push off and I can plant, no problem."

"Mac, just sit there, look disappointed and try to look like an optimistic bust every time the camera pans to you."

"And with the eighth pick of the 2021 NFL draft, the Panthers pick Mac Jones, QB, Alabama."

"Told ya kid, we'd take care of you."

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
