You're wrong.  When you look at the different combinations, the common denominator for success is the QB.

If you have a bad QB, it doesn't matter at all how good your line is.  Hello New Orleans Saints.

If you have a good QB and a bad line, it comes down to coaching and scheme.  Hello Cincinnati Bengals.

For clarity, I'm not implying either of those scenarios fit the Panthers.  I'm also not implying that a good OLine is irrelevant.  But when you talk about truly changing the trajectory of a team, only a good QB can do that with any regularity.

This is why it just baffles the mind why we seem to be completely opposed to the idea of taking a swing at one.  Yes, 100%, we're going to miss.  QB's even in the first round are 50/50 chances.  But you aren't winning the lottery unless you buy a ticket, and we seem completely unwilling to do so.

So Pickett, Howell, etc. have the same grades as Burrow, Lance, Mac, or Lawrence...this is not the year to ''swing'' this is the year to PREPARE to swing, so that when you do swing, you have a team / roster ready to usher in a rookie to IMPROVE his chances to succeed early. 

People have gone broke ''buying tickets''.

      Brandt's comment about Wharton was from his KC perspective when Wharton was a UDFA rookie.   "it goes back to the anecdote that Brandt Tillis had when he was in Kansas City. And it would be so easy to just cut Turk Wharton in 2020 when he was an undrafted rookie from a division two college in Missouri. It would been so easy to cut him because then he would have cleared waivers easily. No one knew this guy. They didn't have any joint practices, didn't have a preseason. Would have been so easy to cut him and bring him back on the practice squad and let him continue to build from there. And Brandt essentially said, "No, he's got to make the 53man roster if we're going to have any sort sense of credibility with this team."

      Plenty of us were scratching our heads about that signing at the time. Especially with our 3-4 defense. Wharton is kind of a one trick pony situational five tech DT. He doesn't have the beef to hold up against the run and he doesn't have the juice to shift outside. He's basically a situational pass rusher DT. If we paid him $40M+ and he can't start for a historically inept defense then holy poo...

      Agreed.  300 and 2 or 3 total in Jacksonville in a winning effort would sure be a nice start.
