Could we really pick something other than QB or o-line at 6?

If he's the best player on your board and you can't trade down for picks, you take him there. Don't worry though, we're taking Pickett. A rookie QB gets Rhule a mulligan for year 3. 

Positional value matters. A lot. There's a reason very, very few IOL are taken in the top 10. I can't ever recall a center drafted in the top 10.

In the top 10 you're looking for impact players at high value positions. IOL doesn't qualify IMO. The two relatively recent top 10 IOL picks were also ironically both busts.

I don't disagree with you there, it's just who do you take and who do you trust Rhule and company to take? None of the QBs are worth pick 6. Linderbaum feels like the safest pick unfortunately and I don't want to hamstring the next coach if we somehow manage to get rid of Rhule.

Oh, we're gonna hamstring the fug out of him. I fully expect future draft assets to get traded away and our salary cap getting shot all to hell. Rhule has already proven to be in over his head at the NFL level and now he's desperate. That's scary.

That's what I'm really afraid of. If/when we ever do get rid of Rhule, how in the world are we ever going to entice a promising HC candidate with no draft picks, cap, or assets.

Bingo. Hence why I've been saying that as bad as it looks currently, with Rhule still here and still weilding full control it's bound to get uglier.

      I would take the giants roster over Panthers. Lawrence, 3 OLB/DEs, Thomas, and nabers. Lawrence is better than dbrown and Thomas is better than icky. Panthers don't have one edge that would start over those 3 not matter how people feel about burns. Id believe....I think I would take nabers over the whole WR group....Id need to think about, but I feel it is right or 50/50..... Now after the top 10, Panthers may have claim. Im just not that big of a NFL fan like past time to make a good case. I'd just take giants on their top talent.    I will say this, if BY carries this team to the playoffs, he alone would flip this.

      Looks like he ran out of real estate.  He had 5 total TDs. As good as we have ever seen in Carolina? Looks like he is the only QB in our history with 3 passing and 2 rushing TDs and he tied a single game record of 5 TDs in one game with Cam and Beurlein.  Throw in his 73.4% completions and zero turnovers, literally the ONLY thing you could argue against statistically is total yardage which was only 275.  You may not agree with that statement (not 100% sure I do), but it's really not THAT wild...
