WFT trading the whole draft for Trey lance.

Lions top target is Jaylen Waddle.

If the panthers miss out on Pitts, look for them starting in the 4th to trade for Zach Ertz. 

Jalen Mayfield falling out of the second round.

 

 

Well if I’m Scott Fitterer I am on the phone with Marty Hurney and company.  I would make that trade 10 out of 10 times if they want to give me there entire draft for #8.

I like the topic Basbear-good thread.

SF was supposed to be going after Jones, but they are putting Lance and Fields through their own QB drills.  Due Dilligence or have they changed their minds and have it narrowed down to 2?

Denver will move up.  How far?  Dunno, but watch them--I am guessing Miami or Atlanta....

That QB landing spot is not the Jets roster, its a playoff roster day 1. Thats why those QBs are doing this, land there and your first year is a winning record(odds-wise). OL is very solid as well, just a great team so its not much pressure. Just dont force TOs and stay out of jail, youre set.

Okay hi. 
NE trades up for a QB 
Asante Samuel goes in the top 20 
We draft Waddle at 8

Obviously you are in the know Verge. In a crazy scenario where 5 qbs and a lineman and Pitts go. Waddle or Chase?

I know we like Waddle and want a weapon early.

So we let Samuel go for big money and we upgrade with the first rounder. 

From the sounds of the big board, the Panthers do not seem too interested in trading back---of course, all of us have our price.  Mine is a box of hot Krispy Kremes and a Meatloaf CD with a half a tank of gas and nowhere to really go.

Yeah, these “rumors” sound extremely suspect to me.  Of course the Panthers like weapons but if you are saying they are taking Waddle then just say it outright.  Jumping around prospects in our area isn't insider knowledge.  lol

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
