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.

      Kon is a damn stud but it’s not any individual player’s team. All of the “big 3” are incredibly and equally important IMO. And LaMelo makes Kon way better (look at his shooting splits with LaMelo on the floor vs without. Also Moose and even Miles are important cogs. Honestly think we’re 1 piece away from being legit top contenders if the young guys continue to develop the next year or two. I trust this FO to be patient to find that piece within the next 2-3 years and not force anything. Plenty of time and even without adding anyone we have the pieces in place overall already to compete with any team.

      We lost 2 very close and winnable games against top teams in the league while missing 3 critical players despite 2 of our top 3 players shooting unusually terribly. Still split the 4 games that Moose and Miles were suspended, winning the most important one vs the Hawks. This ain’t yo mama’s Hornets man. Hopefully Coby can go soon but even if not Moose and Miles are huge additions for our starting lineup and bench rotations. Schedule is pretty tough after these next 4 but I think we’ll take care of business the next 4 to get to .500 then finish slightly above .500 after that to get a 7 or 8 seed. Keep it rolling boys. Also Kon is having an insanely historic rookie season as a shooter. Like truly can’t believe my eyes watching this kid level of historic. Man what a fuging home run of a draft pick and exactly what this team needed to take that next step forward. He’s gonna shatter the rookie 3 point and franchise 3 point records. Has a real chance to be the 2nd best 3 point shooter ever or dare I say even get to Curry’s level (as a pure shooter, Curry obviously has way more to his game that has made him a GOAT).

      Mike Kaye: LB Devin Lloyd could be a realistic possibility

      I hear you but yeah like you say, above average. His numbers were good. You’d think it would be a no brainer. Anyhow… I guess the new staff is also fine with him walking?    I hope if we sign him there isn’t some secret issue of his that led to him not being valued.
