I hear you, but in regards to the panthers I would prefer not to have this big of a project to hopefully take over the reigns post Teddy.

I wouldn't see Mond as a 1st round pick anyway. You take him in the 2nd and hope he absorbs the coaching he receives. He definitely has starting potential.

[ForJimmy]

What are your thought on a Davis Mills or Jamie Newman as a project in the mid rounds for plan Y & Z?

[Shocker]

Really starting to believe Fields will be the target.  Wilson is probably out of reach but maybe not.  Gotta get to 3 at least and will guarantee us Wilson or Fields.

What are the two most important aspects of playing QB again? I forget.

His pocket awareness has made me cringe at times, other times he shows great ability to sense and escape. His decision making needs work, as do most of the QB prospects in the draft. Both of which are very obviously fixable, and he showed growth in both areas meaning they are improving. He isn't oblivious a ton, but he has moments where these things escape him.

Love Davis Mills, lots of ability there.

I have Fields and Lance with virtually the same grade, I would be happy with either.

Apologize if this has been posted but apparently Fields ran a 4.41 40 recently.  His pro day should be must see TV...

Back injury popped up. This is combined with an already iffy injury history and skipping last year.

Always hate that.

But yeah, it happens. Heck, my best friend growing up played quarterback from Pee Wee up through Junior High. By the time he went to the 9th grade, he'd already had arthroscopic surgery on both knees.
