I like Pickett a lot and would have no issue taking him top-10, but we MUST address the OL before putting a rookie QB on the field.

You don't have to put him on the field, you can let him sit on the bench for a year.  If you wait to get your QB to when everything is perfect you might never find one.

If a QB that you like is available, you take him if you have that opportunity.  If you draft an OL this year there is no guarantee there will be a QB you like the following year, or even if you like one, he might not be available where you pick.

I'm not saying you force the pick this year, maybe its next year where a QB is available to you where you pick.  My point is they are hard to find, if you like one and he is available take him

Having watched Willis against Mississippi State, I'd have to agree.

For the record, Brugler doesn't have WIllis going in the first. Pickett, Howell and Corral are his first round passers, with only Pickett going top ten.

Go check out his games against other P5 teams and upper end G5 teams. It's really bad.

What is your idea of 1st round caliber?  Luck and Trevor?

What about Watson?  Mahomes?  Lamar?  Herbert?  I guess you wouldn't draft them either.  There will be a QB this year that will have a similar grade to those 4 on most teams boards.

 

At the time I wasn't a huge fan of Lamar. Other than that, all 1st round caliber guys.

To be honest, I’d say that Burrow, Tua, Herbert, Lawrence, Wilson, Lance, Fields and Jones all would be or have a high probability to be the top QB taken this year. We really have fallen into the Marty 2.0 mode of draft preparation where we reach for need positions in the worst years and ignore them in deep years. We went with Little in a bad OT class/great IOL class and went DT in a strong OT class. We also went expensive middling to bad vet QBs in two decent QB classes and now I’ll likely go QB in one of the worst QB classes in years.

Everyone keeps saying that none from this class would have gone before the top 4 last year.  Good chance that Mahomes, Watson, Lamar, and Rodgers wouldn't have either.

and most of them probably had similar grades to the guys this year.

Trubisky went before those guys.  Those guys had question marks. 

 

 

Yeah, I was definitely not a Trubisky fan.

They didn't have similar grades. I literally told you my grades for them. How are you arguing my grades when you asked me for them? I don't even understand how that's a thing.

You really had Mahomes as a first rounder? I thought he played in a gimmick offense. Obviously I was wrong… 

In the first round? Yeah, not as high as he went. 

I get the "Texas Tech gimmick offense" thing. He just seemed to have more NFL tools than their average "system" QB. 

Would I ever have predicted him to be what he has become? Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck no.

I do wonder what would have happened had Trubisky been drafted at a more reasonable position than #2 overall.

Two things:

I think we will be picking a lot higher then 10.

 

Is Pickett a top 10 qb?  He had a great year, makes nfl throws but damn I just dont know.  When you pick a qb in the top 10 and he doesnt work more times than not your poo is fuged for a long long time

Our poo is already fuged.  They need qb's, yes plural.  The oline is right there with it I agree.  But they are looking at 5 needed starters and several decent backups between the qb and oline positions.  That is pretty fuged of you ask me.

Hard to say. As always, I am a big believer in the NFL being a self motivating league. If you have "it" then you will work to be the best and success will come at some point. 

If you never see Trubisky ascend above a journeyman backup player then he was probably what his detractors said about him at the time, a one year wonder that got overdrafted in a weak QB draft.

    • yeah, but the actual jersey Bryce Young is wearing is not the same jersey you are buying from Fanatics.   
    • i just feel like i read this he says she says poo all the time over & over again  on the internet  TV  work ,in public & then i think back to myself oh what a sick slandermongering world we live in now. ts just like those National Enquirer magazines you find in the grocery store at the checkout counter which are nothing more than complete & utter BS  & more often than not when you assume something then you make an ASS out of U & ME. so chill &  let the courts do their job & if he is guilty well he is guilty  LOL either or this has nothing at all whatsoever to do with Carolina Panthers football   
    • Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter
