Ransom our pick to a team who falls in love with one of the top QBs and trade down. 

If Sanfran was willing to give up 3 first rounders to move up to take Trey Lance I’m sure someone will make a similar trade if a guy like Pickett or Willis fall to us. 

Recoup some of the picks we lost and an extra first and go all in on the offensive line. Roll with Sam and Cam again and see how they perform behind an upgraded line. Hopefully Rhule still gets fired and let the new a coaching staff draft a QB next year.

Trey Lance is a better prospect than Pickett. Nobody is trading the farm for Pickett or I’ll be shocked if they do.  I’d say willis and Trey are similar prospects except Trey is more prototype size at 6’4” 225lbs while Willis is 6 foot 220lbs. Both have accuracy issues but big arms and are mobile. Trey is more of a bruiser while Willis is more shifty. I don’t see anyone trading the farm for Willis because of his size.

Should probably word it as would you accept not do you want. LT or QB has been the concensus for months now. We are a mess in the short term. We may end up using the next two high picks on quarterback these fantasies about us falling into next years top pick are just that. We will probaby end up with 7-8 wins next season with how the division is shaping up. And I like Willis as a prospect but the way folks here are hyping him despite his obvious flaws while calling Pickett Jimmy Clausen is getting really boring.

If the panthers are hell bent on a QB I prefer Willis.  But none of the QBs wow me 

Yep, me too... we need a dual threat QB and one that can scramble (run for his life).... hes the closest thing to Wilson, Jackson, Murry, Mahomes in that respect... not sure about his decision making abilities tho...  Willis should be the pick.

Six is a good spot for us.  I think we'll trade down and end up getting one of the QBs plus being able to get a couple more picks.

I keep seeing this over and over and over about trading down.  2 things here.  If we like a qb we are not trading down and hoping he falls to us at whatever spot we land at.  Secondly there isnt a player in this draft that someone is dying to get.  Especially at 6 where the price tag is going to be huge.   Now you can make the argument that Fitt may take pennies on the dollar just to recoup a pick or two but I doubt he does that seeing as he didnt take the bears good offer last season.  I think he knows how valuable a top 10 pick is.

 

I am just mentally preparing myself for these dumb motherfugers to spend 100 million on broke ass Armstead and picking Pickett at 6.  Rhule rolls him out there after a 1-4 start and ends up winning 6,7 games and pointing to progress so Tepper keeps him for year 4.   Talk me off that ledge

Do you approve of Pickett at 6? Also—added q: would you approve of Corral and/or Willis?

If we’re taking a QB at 6 then I’d rather it be Corral and then Willis. Corral has plenty of arm. He looks like a combo of Zach Wilson and Russell Wilson. I think he’s gonna explode after his workouts assuming he’s healthy. 
 

Willis is the closest comp to Vick I’ve seen. He’s 6 feet. He’s blazing. He has a cannon. He isn’t built like Lamar Jackson but is equally as quick. He’s thick in his hips and upper legs so I don’t think he’s going to be injury-prone. If the right staff gets him then I think he could be a really good QB in the future. 
 

Pickett has zero characteristics that excite me. None.

You left off option c.

C. Do not care because it's a Rhule selection.

I'm quickly falling into the worst thing for a franchise - a fan that has given up hope and just doesn't care anymore.  

If the Panthers continue to be amateur hour with horrible decision making, I'll find something else to do with my time.

Pickett is actually an underrated scrambler who is one of the best at keeping his eyes downfield and throwing off the run.

      Ravens safety out for year. Torn Achilles… Panthers may need to do something

      By Seltzer · Posted

      100%. Nick Scott was awful last year. Like, even for a franchise that hasn't historically invested in that position, it stood out for how awful it was. If he sees meaningful snaps at S again we're cooked.  Maybe he has value for ST, but I certainly hope we can upgrade. Jordan Fuller, who was by all accounts an Evero guy, was almost as bad. Xavier Woods was bad, but not complete garbage. Still did not want him back. Those 3 guys seriously may have been the worst S group in the NFL. And they all were brought in, especially Fuller, as good fits for this system. Everyone knocks the defensive line, and they deserve a lot of blame, too, but so, so many times our safeties inability to tackle let 4-5 yard runs turn into 10+. And it happened over and over and over again if you watch the film. Honestly, Demani Richardson was the only S by the end of the year I remember making positive plays. I have no issue with Richardson being in the mix and/or competing to be a starter, but we still need another S desperately IMHO who has actually played meaningful snaps in the NFL. The only caveat/excuse for our secondary was the fact our pass rush was nonexistent for large stretches last year. Maybe that helps with coverage, but I dont see how that makes any of these guys better at tackling.  I know it somewhat feels like piling on at this point, but I feel 100% confident in saying this was the worst tackling team in franchise history. The 70ish yard pass play we gave up to Jamarr Chase where he ran through and past everyone in the secondary has to be up there in terms of most embarrassing plays I've ever seen. I can't imagine how embarrassed Kuechly must have been watching from the booth... I think bringing back Evero was a mistake, but for a team that has had nothing but change over the past 5 years, I'm willing to see this through. I definitely think we added significantly to the floor of this defense with the additions we made. I dont think Evero has any further excuses if he cant field a unit that can at least somewhat hold their own. Fixing the safety play is going to be a big part of that.

      Play Nikishin

      While I would like to see Nikishkin play, I definitely wouldn't want it to be for Chatty who is a lockdown defender like Slavin

      2 teams with sub 2% odds winning it within a span of less than 20 years. Quite unbelievable.
