Trade back for more picks and draft O-line

In theory I agree with you. We don't have a pick on Day 2 of the draft. After our first round pick we don't select again until round 4. If we could get a later 1 and pick up a high 3rd rounder it would make sense on paper. 

However, I don't trust the FO/coaching staff to select the right guy(s) or even let them see the field if they do (ie Brady Christensen)

If a team could be convinced to trade up and give Carolina more picks, that would be ideal.  Hell, I don’t care if they trade down to the 2nd round, as long as they get a haul of picks of reasonable compensation in return, it would be worth it.

Why? Because this team ain’t a one-year fix. A single 1st round pick doesn’t come NEAR fixing this teams rotten core.  They need MORE top 100 picks, not a single top 10 pick.

 That being said, in either case (trade down or not), they need to pick OL as a priority then LB and DL as a lesser priority.  NOT quarterback. 

If Fitterer can’t turn that 1st round goose into a pick-haul golden egg, this new, fresh RE-rebuild is gonna be longer and more painful than anyone can imagine.

      Evero?!?! Should he be on the Hot Seat

      By CRA · Posted

      Night and day difference in the front office investements.  Since Morgan has been in the FO (5 years)....4 out of 5 first round picks have been offensive players.  The one defensive pick was a corner. Expand it out to the first 2 rounds? 7 out of the 9 picks have been offensive.  That IMO is why our D sucks so bad.   You build defenses up front.   Carolina hasn't been investing there.  Ron's first 5 years? 3 of the 5 first round picks were defensive players.  Expand it all to include second rounders  7 of the 10 picks were defensive.  All front 7 players.

      I think he gets this year to show what he can do.  Last year, we had a lot of injuries. This year, we should have some players, even if we lose one or two.  It's the first preseason game.  Some of the starters weren't even in it.  There is no scheming or game planning.  Let's see how guys do when it counts. I think we have a GM that knows a thing or two about defense.  Let it play out.

      give some props to Andy Dalton

      I was ok with the mentor aspect of keeping Dalton, but wow has he fallen off the deep end. The slow behind the WR interception was awful. I keep hearing our WRs created no separation, but on that particular play dude was wide open and Dalton couldn't get it to him with a clean pocket. Next year, we need to address the backup QB spot haaaaaard!
