You're largely correct but if we want a starting left tackle for the upcoming season, I think it has to be the next pick.

Their are no starters left.  The rest have to be developed.  There are no plug and play.  There were 2 maybe 3 if darrisaw is ready but everyone else has issues.

Been slowly coming to this conclusion too while digging into who's left. If we use it on a LT we're going to be passing up better prospects on defense. Time to send some more bitcoin Okung's way.

Yep.  This draft isn’t that deep with LT.  I tried to tell you guys.  Might as well finish up the defense while we can.

Going defense heavy in the draft for a second year in a row with a quarterback trying to shed bust status behind a shaky offensive line. What could go wrong right?

He busts and we have decent draft picks next year to make a move at QB and a TON of cap space to address OL. Defense will be in place.

I think there's still plenty of offensive talent, but for some strange reason that Horn makes me want to say screw it and keep going on defense lol. I love good defense, and I want us to get back to that.

I love good defense as well, but it's almost been legislated out of the league.

I hope we're able to field a balanced team. Maybe we get lucky and the o-line gels better than we're expecting. I was hoping for Sewell, but the Lions stomped all over that, lol.

I'm all for taking the bpa as the draft unfolds and plugging holes as best as we're able.

In a perfect world yes and we will be the only team seeking a quarterback who will fall into our laps. I wish it were that easy. Depends heavily on many factors but I don't think it's a scenario we want to be facing next year. Plenty of teams have found themselves a qb away in recent years only to come to the realization how difficult it is to find the right one. Let us hope Sam pans out.

    • To all the analysts who said "Caps in 5", thank you for telling us their departure time.
    • We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not.
