Which prospect have you grown to like? (not just who you would like to be a Panther)

Yeah I'll trust the front office no matter what happens tonight and let it play out but I can't lie I'd be extremely disappointed if we pass up on Fields. If it's Lance sitting there, while I'd still like to take him, I'd be fine with passing him up, but Fields is the best QB prospect we're gonna have a chance at for a long time if you ask me. He's the clear #2 player in this draft behind TL in my eyes and we could actually have a chance at him falling to us and pass it up. If it's Sewell that'll make it easier to stomach but anyone else and it'll be a rough night for me...

I’m with you. Been on the Fields train for years. He’s been the 1B to Lawrence’s 1A for some time now. I’d hate to believe we overthink things and talk ourselves out of pairing Fields with Moore, Anderson, CMC, Moore and Joe Brady if he is on the board at 8. 
 

His game against Clemson is probably the best performance of any of these kids in the last few years in a single big stage game. He straight up took over after getting injured. He has the pedigree. He has the stats. He has the right attitude. From a character standpoint you aren’t going to find a better kid in the draft. 
 

And he accurately airs the ball out during real games. It’s everything we are looking for in a a QB. Giving Darnold competition, even giving Fields competition by having Darnold to compete against will only help us make the right decision at QB.

I want him to be a Panther.  I just wholeheartedly believe that Fitt/Rhule are too enamored with the idea of another desperate team over paying for the 8th spot (assuming we find a suitor).  Unfortunately, draft Capital only works if you hit on those picks.  This morning I reminded of the Julio Jones trade, and how Cleveland squandered every single one of those picks.  But how could we go wrong with possibly two starter quality QB's on rookie contacts?  We shall see.

    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever… 
    • Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.
    • The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
