- some Panther officials see Justin Fields as a once in a generation type talent and feel they should keep taking big swings at the position 

- Sewell and Surtain could be the pick at #8

[Growl]

they’re gonna do it

theyre gonna give Bill Belichick another franchise QB and all they’re gonna get out of it is some mid round crap so they can say “we got Sam darnold for basically nothing!”

- If Panthers trade with Eagles at 12 the team would be interested in CB Jaycee Horn, LT Slater or LB Micah Parsons 

- If Panthers trade with Patriots at 15 the team would be targeting LT Christian Darrisaw or Caleb Farley

Id take sewell over fields 9/10. If they are both there.

[Growl]

Panthers give Patriots 8 overall 

in return they get #15, a 2, and a 4

 The post draft presser centers around “obtaining a franchise QB” for “really no cost at all” and “the analytical data really supports”

Fields wins OROY

You'd think that after last season some of you would finally take Bill's nuts out of your mouth

Oh you mean the season where Bill took a last minute Covid Cam, no offensive weapons, and an opted out defense and won more games than Carolina?

Heck, I think there are odds you could see Farley at the top of the 2nd
