Yep and he are ahead of them. Two of the most connected people in the league has us (Breer and King) taking Fields, people inside our organization think Fields is a generation talent 

 

And Vegas had us tied for favorites 


 

 

 

 

We get it you want an o-linemen, you like Darnold, but sorry to break it to you as of right now all the signs are pointing to Fields.

If he falls past #3 the odds that we get him go way up.

Denver or NE could still come up for him but it’s not as likely.

Denver is probably not going to, Ben Allbright who is very well connected has said as much and they just traded for Teddy

NE is definitely a possibility. They're going to have to find a team willing to trade though. Atlanta will want a ton. Cinny seems content. Miami traded back up already. Detroit is an obvious possibility but they are probably going to have Waddle or Devonta Smith there at 7 and they have the worst WR corps in the NFL so it's going to again take a ransom for them to move. 

I really think Fields is going to fall to 8

I've already said I think Fields is a possibility.

But trading Bridgewater doesn't mean jack sh-t on that front.

Im not convinced the 49ers aren’t taking Fields. 
 

We’ll find out soon.

The only problem is our division rival that could, arguably should, fug us out of Fields. Either by taking him or trading back, it would fug us over so much.

We have Darnold and need OL and CB!

Ok, but I like the Justin Fields kid...

Over many many years of Marty Hurney being in charge, I've gotten used to saying "Well I don't agree with what they're doing, but I hope it works".

I'm fully prepared to say that again this year if they draft a quarterback in round one.

But also hoping I don't have to..not only for that decision but also for numerous others to come.

If Fields is the pick you are going to be so happy in a few years.  Maybe sooner!

If that happens, I hope you're right.

Bottom Line: I care way more about the Panthers doing the right thing that I care about them doing what I think they should.

I am with you--we made our QB choice, now lets build around him.   Sorta reminds me of the time the Cowboys drafted Aikman and gave up another #1 pick in the supplemental draft by drafting Steve Walsh.  That did not really pan out. 

Of course you could say, we gave up a 1st (2021), a second (2022), and fourth (2022) and a sixth (2021) for 2 QBs with starting potential.

Now, I have to think if Tepper was behind the Darnold move, he would also be behind the Fields decision.  Does that mean Darnold was simply insurance?  Here is the rub.  You get Darnold, and no matter what these people say about him, he has the tools to be successful.  Imagine getting #15, a second and maybe a first in 2022 to move back and take Horn, for example? 
To me, you do not put all of your resources in one basket and hope for a miracle.  You research the player, build around him, and go to war.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
