Lotta red flags on Fields.  You folks would give all you have for an unknown with good athleticism than for a known player who was in a terrible situation.

I get it, but I think the thing to do is build around Darnold to see what he has.  Is Fields a generational talent?  They said that about Vince Young and Michael Vick.  They said it about Jamarcus Russell and Ryan Leaf. 

They said it about Cam, and then they did not protect him or give him weaponry. 

I like Fields--I really do--but let's keep it between the lanes.

You're starting to remind me quite a lot of the Cam naysayers before the 2011 draft. 🤔 The same ones that wanted Clausen or Blaine Gabbert ignoring all their obvious faults for some reason. 🤔

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!”

Another?

If Cam was still a franchise QB they wouldn’t be calling around trying to trade up for a QB

Cam was once a franchise QB. But those days are gone.

I saw that the saints were looking to trade up and get him... not sure if we would fall past them.

His medical red flags are kinda nuts.  More than just the back.  I’ll be shocked if he goes in the top 16 (top half).

- 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

CB Horn and Slater at 12, no Parsons. 
15's targets are correct, we are high on Farley.

If Bill Belichick thinks a guy is a franchise QB and Matt rhule and Scott Fitterer think that same guy isn’t one then there’s a much bigger concern facing the Carolina Panthers as an organization 

Bill Belichick's draft evaluations are not exactly something to brag about.

It's almost universally acknowledged that their free agent blitz this year has a lot to do with the fact that their past five drafts have been sh-t.

Verge, I know Drew Rosenhouse says he won't get past 20 and agents basically dictate everything, but with all the injuries and even possibly the covid thing, I could really see him slipping to our pick in round 2. Got to think at least 1 or 2 teams probably have him off their boards due to injury. FWIW I still think he goes RD 1, but imagine if we trade back snag Slater, then get Fairley and a WR in RD 2 😍......

      The Panthers keep making the same mistakes under new GM.

      By Jon Snow · Posted

      That offense last year was so predictable. I really don't know what the strategy was in the end. Did Frank not trust his qb? Did he not want the qb they selected? Did he not want a rookie at all? What the actual fug was the plan? He wasn't going to work on his qb's mechanics until year 2? What the actual fug is that kind of development? I have never seen a team go so sideways as this team did last year. I mean they weren't winning much anyway because the rest of the team was ass but damn! At least do something to show you give a damn.

      Powerful leg but the clip alluded to him missing a chip shot. They might have a new kicker but let's see how he does in preseason.

      What do you grade this draft?

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      My perception/opinion of the draft based on a few categories.  Solid draft in my opinion.  Addressing need with perceived roster upgrade:  A Got WR the team desperately needed, a solid pass catching RB and upgraded TE and LB positions with what could be contributors.  Value of players drafted: B- My non-expert ignorant opinion on Legette is he was a bit of a reach.  Full disclosure though, I thought Adonai Mitchell and Jackson Powers Johnson were solid first rounders and a lot of GM's and scouts disagreed.    Brooks being hurt is a question mark/flag for me.  Draft savvy:  A+ Moving up to first for the 5th year option was a smart move with little to no downside.  After that Morgan basically stole a 2nd round pick next year and still got his guy in the process.  Also seems to have kept consistency with that "dawg" mentality the FO has been pushing.
