Breer doesn't really give any specifics, but if you pair that with Joe Person's speculation that the Panthers aren't wild about any of the quarterbacks other than the top two, you start to wonder.

This current regime has shown minimal ability to orchestrate a smokescreen, but if they wanted to try one, yeah... I know a guy who would take that bait hook, line, and sinker.

If Fields is actually still on the board at 4, someone will offer them the moon and we wont have a shot. 

I really think Lance is our only realistic option at QB, but I don’t know if the staff wants him. 

 

if lance & seawell are both there for us, I would take the LT

Verge:

For my Carolina fans. Panthers are in the drivers seat more than you know. You can somewhat safely predict what players are going to be there, and you can allow it to play out before investing stock into any move predraft. If Justin Fields drops to 8? Great. If not? BPA.
 
What you don't have to do is continually stress the idea of who won't be there, especially when you like the guy. If Atlanta takes Kyle Pitts and you are in love with whatever QB is there? Go get him, it won't take a ton to move up 2-3 spots. If Cinci won't trade with you they
 
aren't going to trade with anyone else either. So in reality you are looking at getting a QB you like or letting the draft fall to you and getting a top tier lineman. It's a win win position.

As far as Fields goes is there concern about his personality? Yeah I do think so, I think there is a concern about his leadership qualities and his dedication to things outside the football field. Is that valid? Hard to say, personality issues are part of what dropped Herbert too
 
 
Anytime you ask about a guy, especially a QB, and the things you hear back about him from coaches, staff, players, etc isn't glowing, you have to figure those things out. It is something that has been said about Fields. Up to teams to decide where to prioritize it.

    • Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4
    • Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.    
    • Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
