Yup.  I'm not sold on Pickett or Willis and our defense will eat either of them alive.  The Falcons know we are interested in a QB.  To get their guy, they are going to have to move up.

If you (and others) are not sold on Pickett or Willis, what makes you think the Falcons are? They may not want either guy, especially if they have to give up a lot to get them. If Ryan is traded I'm not so sure they'd move up. They may take the best player available and use this draft to lay a strong  foundation and zoom in on a QB next year.

So they are copying what we should be doing?

Nah, just up to the Jets.  The Giants may be in play for a QB.  It's doubtful that the Texans or Detroit take one that high.  I think the Texans sit tight and take their guy next year in a MUCH better QB class.  Remember they just got a TON of draft capital.  Same with Detroit. They are on the hook with Goff for 3 more seasons.  No need to draft his replacement right now.

Oh yeah I was just saying since I hate the falcons, wasn’t something I thought they’d do

I'd go out and outbid them for Mariota and force their hand.  I know, a complete d*ck move, but hey, we are talking about the Falcons!

I'm worried less about it being a dick move than I am about the fact that I don't think Mariota is that good.

Definitely don't think he's good enough to want to outbid a team that actually wants him.

He doesn't have to an All Pro, just better than Darnold...and yes, just a stopgap until next draft.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
