The core we have is still melting down in Chernobyl.

But seriously, the overall roster isn't THAT bad, but it's not competing without a QB. Put Teddy back out there and we're right back in this same situation again next year. Likely sitting with a pick in the bottom portion of the top 10 drooling over the QBs we can't draft.

Panthers are 100% trading down IMO.

Think about it.  Panthers could have easily beat this deal.  We have the #8 overall pick.  The fact that we didn't tells me:

A) We are 100% comfortable waiting out the Deshaun Watson situation.  And if we can somehow accumulate future picks if this lasts past the draft?  Then so be it.  But we clearly expect Watson to be available at some point.

B) We didn't think, given the state of our team, it was worth trading up a lot for one of the rookies.  And that is okay.  Difference between trading for Watson and trading for the potential of Wilson/Lance/Fields.

I get the frustration.  But I think we need to relax.  The coaches did a phenomenal job last year and at the end of the day, coaching always prevails.  We will find our QB, it might not be this year but it will happen.  You can take me to the bank on that too.

If we DO draft a QB at #8, then we're probably talking Lance vs. Jones.  And if that is the case, I want Jones.  He gets a lot of undue crap.  Yes his ceiling is questionable, undoubtedly his biggest flaw, but his mental/field processing + accuracy is tops in this draft, even ahead of Lawrence.

But I see us trading down or selecting a LT/DB.  MAYBE a wide receiver... I think people are sleeping on that possibility.

      NFL top 10 Defenses

      By Basbear · Posted

      I believe Lloyd will elevate not just the whole unit, but also whoever his running mate is. Wallace is still very young, I think he's only 23 with two years of exp now. Cherelus can handle starting, he's just fighting with staying healthy. Kuwatch I think is going to be a contender after a couple week of understanding the system.  I mean Lee will be against..... what nearly 10 NFL-level WRs, he's going to get work and its up to him if he can hang.  I think its fair to expect 12th +/- 3 or 4 spots.  You know this, it boils down to how healthy everyone stays.....cause if dbrown, horn, Lloyd, Michael Jackson, or tervon miss extended time.....no way 10th can be reached. IF all the names above remain haethly, I do think 10th should be the goal. They are a young unit and added talent to a 16th ranked unit. Its time to march forward!!

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce.

      Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips.
