Who do you love?

[Mr. Scot]

Kudos if you read the title in George Thorogood's singing voice. In truth though, the question is about who the Panthers love.

A few days back, Joe Person stated that the Panthers weren't all that enthralled with any of the quarterbacks outside the top two.

In his mailbag today, Albert Breer hinted that the Panthers don't necessarily "love" all of the top five quarterbacks, saying that whether or not we'd be willing to trade up for someone who fell out of the first four or five picks was dependent on whether it was a quarterback we were really interested in.

Breer didn't often offer any specifics as to who we loved and who we didn't. Plus it's worth noting that Person's comments were made before Justin Fields Pro Day.

So the question that I would then ask regarding the top five quarterbacks (Lawrence, Wilson, Fields, Lance and Jones) is this: Who do you think the Panthers love, and who do they not?

Love: Lawrence, Wilson, Fields

Like: Lance

Hate: Jones

The thing with Lance is I feel the arbitrage move would be to draft Mond in the 3rd they both should sit for a year and learn. Get that franchise LT at 8

I have no idea what this crew really thinks. I do know its lying season. We will see some on draft days and hear some more along the way. 

Top 4 QBs all have upside and we would improve this team at least marginally. I'm trying to not fall in love. Lawrence is off to be ruined by the Jags, we won't have a chance. Wilson looks great with some room to improve, we won't have a chance. Fields looks good, kind of hard to not knock him as a Cam lite but it seems to fit. Lance has huge upside and looks like he has a great foundation to get there. Jones is a no-go for me, like a bad version of a Matt Ryan clone.

Is Fields "Cam Lite" or is he Vick with better passing skills?

What I’m reading is that he is closely being compared to Watson or tall Russ wilson

I think Joe Brady probably has Lance last.  He is probably the worst fit for Brady to showcase his O and get that HC job.     

Rhule’s list probably is different IMO.  What if he has Brady for only 1 more year? Lance could be higher on his chart.  

[Moo Daeng]

He doesn't seem much like either Newton or Vick.

A taller more athletic Russell Wilson seems closer.

That's a comparison I could see.

LG and I were discussing that earlier. Fields might be about as fast as Vick but he doesn't seem quite as elusive.

Fields is a small step up from Tyrod Taylor

Aaahhh, don't think I could sign on to that idea.

I'd say Fields is significantly better than Tyrod Taylor.

Didn’t Vick run a 4.29?

Never mind. That was his brother

Don't remember. I'm going off what I've seen.

95% of rookie QB bust. So you have to ask yourself which QB had the least chance to bust in the environment they are given.
