If Fields falls to 8 I'd take him. If not, I'd prefer to trade down like Rhule apparently wanted to do last year. Not a pundit but depending on how far they move down Darrisaw and Sam Cosmi could be there. I think the risk is worth it to move down in order to get more opportunities to fill holes in the roster. 

And a few players like Dyami Brown and Elijah Molden could fall due to slightly slower than expected 40 times and other players testing better. More chances to get good players. 

Agreed. If Fields is there, take him. If we aren't going QB and the phone is ringing, at least listen.

I'm a huge UNC fan but Brown scares me. Dude's hands are VERY hit or miss and while he's fast he's not Ginn fast. The hands are comparable though. The more wide open he is the more likely the drop.

Based on what I have heard. This year has been tough on any rumors though. QB first priority and don't believe the noise we don't like Fields/Lance.

Honestly believe when we traded for Darnold - it was a red flare that we announced the #8 pick is up for grabs.. There are a lot of other teams that want a QB and #8 is a perfect spot to grab any of them..

Those that were upset at what we gave up to get Sam (6th, 2nd & 4th) should be happy after we trade back and pick up two 2nds..

Essentially: 2nd + 4th + 6th = Sam Darnold + two 2nds
Golden..

I swear ppl complain about the oline play all thru out the season... then comes draft time and they talk themselves out of getting Olinemen...

Smh.. At this point it would literally be stupid and a total JEts move not to Atleast attempt to build a oline now and see what you have in Sam...

So far it’s looking like Lawrence, Wilson, Mac, Pitts?, Chase, Sewell, if Lions grab Slater who should we get?

I'll have a final mock draft coming in a few weeks but as of this moment I think 

Lawrence 
Wilson 
Mac 
Lance 
Chase/Pitts
Pitts/Sewell
Waddle/Fields/Smith 
Sewell/Slater

I don't think it is out of the realm of possibility. I'm just not sure they trade for Sam if that is the case. Draft an elite LT prospect, and build around Sam for better or for worse. 

I do wonder if they decided to trade for SD because they don't think any of the qb prospects they want will be there at 8.  But if a surprise happens, and one of them is available, they might still pull the trigger.  

IMO, qb is such a critical position, that it wouldn't bother me if we went into the season with two potential starters.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
