Ok, now...  i'm really starting to like Fitterer.  I panicked a bit bc I flashed back to Hurney and Gettleman days, but they NEVER did this.  We got a first round level WR this late, and a guy at 6'3" with 4.3 speed and a huge catch radius.  AND he played and excelled under our current OC.  That is an incredible get and although it wasn't a need, this value may be the best of the draft.  Just incredible.

I'm even more impressed with this kid as a person. Read up on it real quick and its easy to see how he's a culture fit too

Yeah. Guy sounds like an awesome teammate. Future walter payton award winner or something like that.

My gripe though, is that we already had a WR2. We spent a second-rounder on literally the only position at which we were set. 

One thing we've sorely, sorely lacked is a jump ball guy. We've had no such luck in the redzone since Greg left too.

D.J. is amazing but he's notna contested catch vs man kind of guy. He still struggles with press too.

Marshall has a high floor that I think js comparable to Moose and a ceiling that can be Michael Thomas with more rac ability.

Which is an ability both D.J. and Robby lacked.

Marshall just might be the new Thomas. Kid seriously is good and I'm kinda surprised he fell to us.

Yea, he was definitely a bpa pick, but he will be useful when robbie anderson's contract negotiations start up.  

Until that day, we might possibly have the best squad of WRs the Panthers have ever fielded... dont want to get ahead of myself though as i remember a similar feeling when we drafted funchess.

The best was Smith, Moose, and Proehl.  But this one could be very good.

TBH we have a lot of new fans that never saw Moose play and don't' understand how good that man was...62TD and 11k yards is a legit af career....on OUR team lol. So basically that is to say a poo team that runs the ball first....

Moose might own the title for best individual season for a Panther WR. 
 

and 89 had a triple crown season

    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.  Mock drafts 
    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
