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.

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
