There are so many good OTs in this draft. If we ignore it again I’m gonna have a stroke. You just will not get a better opportunity to lock up a crucial position….we have to do it. If we take a mediocre QB at 6 instead of angling to get an OT it’s going to be gross negligence.

Going with the strength of the draft is usually a good plan.  Do that a few seasons in a row and you've added a lot of talent to your roster.

Compare that to reaching for a player.  If we took Willis as a QB, he'd need at least a couple of years to really start producing at a decent level.  Whereas one of these LT could be 'the guy' from his very first OTA.  So it's just no contest. 

I expect with Campen as OL coach the Panthers are committing to building up the OL.  That gives me some hope that common sense will prevail on draft day.  We shall see . . .

I know Rhule wants to win now. I think we all do. It’s not happening with Darnold. The smart play this year is to acquire picks for next year while trying to address needs this year with BPA. In this scenario there were two trades back in the first round (definitely possible with Fitt). 
 

The first nets two 2nd round picks in a swap with WFT. 
 

The second nets a 1st (2023) and 2nd from Pitt. The 2022 picks are Raimann, Strong, Asamoah, and Parham through 4 rounds. 
 

Then next years picks are:

CAR 1st (likely pretty high)

Pitt 1st (also likely top 15ish)

CAR 2nd

Pitt 2nd

Buffalo 2nd

So five day 1-2 picks in 2023 which is exactly what a team in a rebuild needs. If Strong works out with a big arm and underrated movement then we’re set up perfectly to surround him with talent. If he doesn’t work out then we take Stroud or Young (bc we’ll likely suck) and again….we’ll have plenty of assets to surround a young QB.

Who would Washington and Pittsburg be moving up for? 1st and 2 2nds and 2 1sts seem awful steep considering the talent at the QB position.

I think he’s highly overrated. Gets by with the skin of his teeth.

What don't you like about him ?

The tape above is fantastic against LSU no less.  He's definitely got the size at 6-7.   As a recent convert from TE he's only going to get better at LT as he plays more.   He seems like a great prospect.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
