Folks, I think the ship has sailed. We were all in on Watson and then the unthinkable happened. Meanwhile, other organizations had already moved on and were working on other plans. It's time for us to do the same and I doubt the answer is coming in 2021.

On to 2022...

Well, after seeing him get lit up by Demetrius Taylor a few times, I'm not sure that he is the answer.

Yeah, its much better to just bitch and moan about us not getting a top QB in the draft and just mail the season in before its even started....poo, before the draft even happens.  

you're right, we'll be superb if the guard from Minnesota has anything to say about it

We have people who believe Lawrence, Wilson, Fields, Lance, Sewell, Slater, Darrisaw, Surtain, Chase, Waddle, Smith, and maybe Parsons will all be gone by the time we draft at #8.

Yeah, I mean this is a deep draft at OL, so I am not AGAINST the idea of trading down to get more draft capital. But, you don't just trade down out of spite if you have the opportunity to get a high value prospect in a position that is difficult to fill. Quality LT's are probably even more rare than franchise QB's. Top end corner's don't exactly grow on trees either. 

That said, it doesn't mean that I wouldn't be listening to offers if they come my way.

Since Miami and Detroit both need WRs badly, it is very likely that if a QB of our liking is not around at #8, a good T almost has to be.  You would almost have to write a script of trades or teams drafting in positions they don't really need for 4QBs (if we like all 4) and 2 or 3 Ts to be gone in the first 7 picks. 

And if you did that, a CB will be sitting there.

Yep. We can get a good player, most likely. I mean or we could fug it up and draft someone like Parsons, no doubt who would help plug a hole on the roster but also at a position of lower value. 

This is ultimately the Panther way, FWIW.

I mean getting a stud LT this year and drafting Howell next year would have been my best case scenario that didn’t involve us getting Lawrence. In my mind we are still two years away from being truly ready. Give me a LT, CB and fill up the remaining holes on the lines this year. Next year give me a QB and retain our young talent coming to the end of their deals. This is working out brilliantly for me. I would rather have a lock at LT this year than a project QB who may hold this process back even longer.

      Wonder if we draft a RB. Seems like a lot of eggs in Brooks’ basket right now.  And the OL, no kidding. If that running game goes to hell with what we have at QB, you can forget competing. It is so much more important than sticking another wideout on the field. Take your wideout later.

      2026 Win predictions from DraftKings

      I have lots of different thoughts on it. This argument, the primary thing is I don’t like seeing him or anyone, being convicted on hearsay and/or pure speculation. Which some are doing.  I don’t care That much about defending Morgan as I do about the criticism being fair minded.    You sort of assert that Dan was just a yes man. I don’t think we know if he ever pushed back against Fitterer but I have this instinct thing that needs me to satisfy the question of: if Tepper was so down on a Fitterer as to fire him, why in the world would he hire his carbon copy? I guess maybe he wanted a yes man.Like I said, lots of different thoughts.     I am just not gonna judge him that harshly based only on speculation. I am sticking with what he has done starting when he was hired as GM. Maybe I am more lenient because the first season for him and Canales, I gave both a pass. Said I would judge them after the first year. Stuck to it. If you can get to the reality that neither were ready for the job and say okay give them a year get their feet wet, it looks a lot better.    And we are not bound to Bryce yet. Yes, for yet another fuging year he can probably marginally improve and slide by like he has been doing. But if they add even more people and he regresses? I think we could see some relief.    The QB room? As I understand it, Pickett was Canales’ choice. If we need to blame people for poo. In a sense, he is very Bryce like. So makes a good plug in. I get that a little bit. We still have the draft. If they do better than Jake Plummer or Hooker I’ll know they are trying.
