Personally, I think we will try to build the OL in free agency and we will take Pickett.  Not sure how I feel about it. 

If the Panthers can (a big if) address the protection issue through free agency and via the trade market as well, i can see them selecting  Pitt QB Kenny Pickett with their # 6 draft selection.

 I realize that most speculate this is not the year for a bonafide franchise QB to come out of the draft, but each year there is at least one viable starting quarterback prospect.

While no clear-cut prospect has emerged above the rest, Pitt Panthers’ QB Kenny Pickett  will probably be the one to do so.

Pro Scouts contend Pickett spent an extra year developing at Pitt, and it served the him well, which catapulted him into the first-round conversation.

He was highly productive in his final season, flashing accuracy, smart decision-making, and sneaky athletic ability. The Panthers shouldn’t hesitate to select Pickett if he’s still available with their first-round selection if they can somehow solve the current OL problem.

I'm a fan of drafting Oline but what about KC?

Didn't they revamp some of it through FA and trades?

 

They signed one free agent.  He was a doozy.  They had to "overpay" because they are in win now mode.  The paid a kings ransom for him

 

5 years 80 million  32guarenteed    Thats hefty for a 29 year old but I get why they did it.

Rhule will throw 5 years, $80 million and $32 million guaranteed at Mariota

Please I hope this is not the plan.  Without a team of competent coaches a rookie would be doomed.  Without a stellar oline many a rookie has failed.  It would take a miracle for a QB to succeed in the current Panther organisation.

I am a little more optimistic that Tepper neuters rhules personnel input.   Just a gut feeling I have

That gut feeling is predicated on what previous regimes did, and how they, you know, tried to get better. No such concept exists now.

Throwing poo against the wall isnt a concept?

Sam Howell will just be the next in a line of failed QBs. You're witnessing like the 2000 Cleveland Browns through the 2018 Cleveland Browns, only without that 11-5 season in 2007. Howell is the Panthers' Brady Quinn, only picked in the top 6.

I guess it is. Flailing aimlessly amidst constant failure is, in some ways, a concept. And you gotta hand it to Rhule: as rich as his contract is, nobody's better at passing the buck. fuging bitch.

and traded for another, and I think Wylie who was drafted by another team has also played a good bit this year.

So for a decent amount of the year they have two of their own draft picks start on the line, a second and 6th rounder.   Whereas we have had a 2nd and 3rd.
