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.

Pick 2 could still be on the cards if they really wanted to pull the trigger after Wilson’s pro day today.

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.

I still laugh at people who say to trade picks to move up to get a rookie qb who will get decimated without an oline.

If Slater and Lance were there at 8, I g onestly wouldnt know which way to go.

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.

In his 4th college game as a true freshman playing for a bad team.

Definitely getting 2009 and post SB50 vibes when poo was gonna hit the fan.

At this point lets just draft Slater and be done with it.

If it's not Sewell, I don't want an OL at #8. Have heard Slater is more of a fit at guard.

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.

[GoPanthers123]

That SF move screwed us big but until draft day there is still hope for QB at 8.  Atlanta will deal with highest bidder because they are desperate and over the cap and won’t draft QB.

[WOW!!]

 

We need to be talking to the jets either for numbers 2 or Sam.. JMO

They didn't lose a single game by less than one score and were a 2-point conversion away from beating Clemson. Tell me again how they were a bad team.
