NBC's Peter King wont be suprised if Mac Jones goes ahead of Lance

I hope so. Well, let me clarify that statement - I hope someone other than the Panthers takes Jones over Lance.

Jones and Lance imo are both significantly flawed and for that reason neither will go top 10. These rumors imo are being floated to increase trade value for those picks.

I'd be a little surprised but not shocked. Neither should or would be a first rounder in  typical year. 

Tin foil alert. Hyping qbs might be in many teams best interests in order to push other prospects down the draft

I like how everyone here who has watched a few YouTube highlights thinks they know better than people that actually get paid for this kind of thing. 

Given last years drafting success I have total trust in this teams ability to get the right guy. (despite what we think)

I would love it if LT Sewell fell to #8. Extend Moton and we are set for 4+ years at tackle.

Yep, if Jones is the pick then I will certainly scratch my head but be fully on board and excited to see him

He is not saying that Mac Jones will be a top ten pick. Just that Lance may not be, and Jones may sneak ahead of him.  

In reality Lance isn't you typical top ten QB prospect, he is really a mid to late first round QB prospect in most years.  He is being pushed up because there are many QB needy teams.  Guys like Lance go to teams with established QBs so he can sit for a few years and learn the system.  Top ten QBs are typically considered day 1 starters, Lance starting Day 1 would be a disaster.  Mac Jones is typically an early day 2 QB, he is not boom or bust.  He will either be a good QB day 1 or an eternal Backup.

People who work in a NFL organization sometimes. Easterby and Hurney are 2 easy targets proving we can in fact criticize professionals. The flip side is impressive but man some of the NFL owners have hired some idiots over the years, or just put OK people in really bad spots.

As far as Peter King or any media people? Hell yeah we can. Two words, David Newton. Getting paid for it doesn't make that person an expert, just employed. 

I'm still hoping Rhule and Co can be to team building what they are to team coaching. Fingers crossed.

    • Boy we agree on the dink and dunk. I don’t want to watch that kind of football.  I mean okay if you win with it, it could be tolerable but it feels claustrophobic, constrained, limited, boring.  But for some reason I love a smash mouth heavy run game that wins the LOS and gets the backs to the second level.  
    • I am really sorry  that  happened to you they say to never meet your sports heroes i have friends who met  mickey mantle when they were young and he was a belligerent alcoholic at the time  ut broke their hearts  I had the opportunity to meet and spend  time with Cam Newton.     He was the polar opposite of Steve Smith and his public image.   Polite.  Honest when asked question.  You could tell the things that mattered to him and the things that  didnt. The disappointments in himself and the things that hurt him  those qualities make him quite a good interviewer too  i genuinely liked him   Im sure as young, rich, sports hero, he has not been a choir boy but there is goodness in him  the time i met him i took one of my friends with me from the west coast. She said she didn't like him and wasn’t enthusiastic about meeting him.  She left loving him   No one can say anything bad about ‘her Cam’ anymore 
    • Agree about oline. They've tried their best to improve that area. But honestly, has it looked like the most expensive oline in the NFL to you? Not just with Bryce. With Dalton's one game where they almost got the old man killed.  Also YAC shouldn't always be hitting a guy in stride while he's running full speed. Pickens killed us after the catch and those weren't all hit-in-stride plays. I remember a play in Miami when a guy caught a 5 yards curl and took it like 30-40 yards to the house. We don't have that in Carolina. Horn might be the closest thing to that but he can't get significant PT for whatever reason. If Bryce keeps trusting his receivers to make plays, I think he'll become more consistent. Seemed like he only trusted TMac. And force feeding one receiver isn't sustainable. Defenses will start to blanket him and take him out of the game. And yeah, keep taking deep shots. I hate all that dink and dunk football. Hate it.
