Kiper Mock 2.0: Mac Jones to Panthers at #8.

If the Panthers pick Jones, I'll be okay with it, given Rhule coached him in the Senior bowl. I don't think they will, and I definitely don't think they would with Lance still on the board. If Lance is gone, I'd rather they pick the best OT/CB there or better still, trade back and accumulate picks.

If Rhule does wind up picking Jones, he better be right. I think fans will forgive him if he picks Lance and it turns bad, but not Jones.

So, we skip Trey Lance in favor of Mac Jones, who, in Keyshawn's words, has "cement in his shoes"?

Nah!

This pick just seems to go against everything that Rhule believes in as a coach. He was brought in bc he DEVELOPS RAW TALENT. That’s the the entire premise of his $60 million contract. So at the most important position on the field...he’s going to abandon that entire mentality and draft a guy who is basically a finished product athletically? Like do we really see growth potential in Mac Jones? Bc that is what Rhule is looking for...

 

There is no way we’re taking Jones 8th. We may take Jones in the 2nd if all the QBs are gone and we trade out of the pick or draft a player like Slater to anchor the line. But he isn’t going 8th. Not to the Panthers anyway..

    • Bad teams with new coaches that want to make a splash with big passing games kill young QBs. Solid teams that can lean on the run and play-action give a chance for QBs fresh out of college to grow and learn how to dictate a game. A lot of these guys, and maybe even Bryce, aren't horrible but they are being asked to go in and be something unrealistic. They are expected to be able to put out raging dumpster fires after being handed a bucket and being told to go find some water.  And I think we see some of these guys who were labeled as busts eventually developing into serviceable, sometimes decent, sometimes quite good QBs when they land at a well-built team with good coaching and a solid identity. Mayfield, and Darnold are two that come to mind right now. And the two Joneses are certainly showing more in Indy and San Fran than they'd ever really shown before. But we're a shoddily built team that has been weakly coached into a softer style of football that puts crazy amounts of pressure on young QBs. Heck, even Andy Dalton with his experience really couldn't sustain any results here.   
    • 1. Charlotte has been very good to Smitty and his comment is out of line.  2. XL is Smitty, just 180 degrees out of phase. He is the quintessential anti-Smith. Give 89 the ball and he will win a game for you. His high gear was terrifying and he was fearless. He was the bully on every snap he ever played here.  XL is Mr alligator arms who lives in fear of contact. He gets boxed out by guys he outweighs by 40 pounds and looks generally clueless.  Why he has chosen to defend someone he would have BBQ’ed as a teammate stumps me. 
    • Fake outrage from an entertainer... And yes he would have absolutely chewed him out on the field for that kind play.
