Pickett will be a Panther

Obviously all these teams dealing QBs do not think there is a franchise 1st round QB in the bunch. That includes the Panthers who went after Desahun Watson.

So, get a QB, just not with a first round pick. It would be like drafting Sam Darnold or Mitchell Trubisky in the 1st round.

Use the 1st round pick on an impact player that starts day 1.

You'll be sad when you realize Pickett, Willis, Howell, and Strong can't beat out Darnold in year 1. Ridder and Corral are the only QBs in this overhyped group that have a shot at beating out Darnold imo. They should not be taken in the 1st round.

Of all the QBs in the draft. Ridder, Corral, Glass, and Coan have the potential to start year 1.

Pickett would beat out Sam 100 times over. Sam is toast.

Just get Minshew and take the best LT at 6. I know it won't happen and they will take pickett no matter what. I would rather use darnold as a back up and get the QB next season when we unload Darnold and alot of cap space opens up. Who knows who may fall our way.

If they commit to Pickett and he shats the bed then what....another QB four years from now? Doesn't matter cause Pickett is their guy.

That’s been our MO. Great IOL class after losing Norwell, Kalil and soon Turner, let’s reach for a tackle. Great T class a year later, we’ll we still have hope on Little so let’s go DT. Great QB class a year later, let’s go CB because Sam will work out. Shitty QB class this year, welp I guess Sam didn’t work out and we couldn’t get Watson so let’s reach at 6 and get a QB who wouldn’t have gone till the 2nd last year.

It’s how we suck and had to go FA crazy to fill all our talent holes because we are stupid and reach for positions that are deep other years.

Pick 6 would get you a quality QB in most years:

2021 - Fields/Jones

2020 - Herbert

2019 - No one

2018 - Allen/Jackson

2017 - Mahomes/Watson

2016 - No one

Are we really dumb enough to take the next D. Jones, Haskins or Lynch?

The problem truly is that we have no plan. We can’t miss out on Watson and take a step back and say this isn’t a good class, let’s focus on shoring up OL and OL depth (C is on 1 year deal) and go QB in 2023. 

If the last 4 years under Tepper is any indication then yes, they are really that dumb and I fully expect it to happen

The narrative this place goes through when it comes to QBs is insane lmao

You guys hated the idea of Mac Jones being our QB before the draft last year

Taking a QB first round means they’ll miss out on the strong QB class next year. And we’re pretty much guaranteed to take a QB because Rhule isn’t just going to sit pat and lose his job while doing what’s best for the organization. Typical panthers, damned if they do damned if they don’t

If Mac Jones played for this team last year he would undoubtedly be referred too as Pickles 2.0. Only reason he did so well is because of the situation he found himself in

    • Right. But you do understand that there is no such thing as not signing free agents, right? That's what I mean. So make some good free agency moves and do well in the draft. That's step one. If you can't accomplish that, then this will just keep getting worse.
    • Sweet jebus this is idiotic Yes, overall team success in this league, you need a good QB, but beyond just that painfully obvious fact, let's get into the rest of the stupid in there......... First things first, you say.. "if we need a good QB for him to have success, then why are you drafting that player with the #1 pick" Show me one time I've ever said we would need a good QB for T-Mac himself to have success... you can't, because I never have.  I think you're referring to the "he's bad enough that we then have a Top 5 pick to target a QB" part of my post, which is very clearly talking about said QB, not T-Mac.  The other way to interpret that is just overall team success, which again, wouldn't be anything about T-Mac or his ability to impact the offense or overall team wins and losses. I'm quite sure I could do this with a number of teams over the years, but I don't want to spend the time to do multiple, so I'll keep it to just the 2023 Vikings right now since you wanted to use Jefferson as your example....... The Vikings went 3-6 after Cousins went down last year.  And two of those wins came before Jefferson even came back from his own injury, they were 1-4 in the final 5 weeks after Jefferson came back. In those 5 games, Jefferson had 31 catches, 503 yards, and 2 TDs Having the WR you specifically called out didn't help them go better than 1-4 with a bad QB, even though he still put up a great stat line for that time period either.  It also didn't make that QB good enough to where they then went out and brought in TWO new QB's this year to replace Doubs and Mullens who started down the stretch for them last year. And that's with 4th year Jefferson, not a rookie that T-Mac would be If you expect a WR getting drafted #1 overall to be the player to turn a franchise as bad as we are around in 1 season, make whatever QB we're able to put in there be successful, and lead us to a solid season, then you are literally insane. We are AWFUL, we have a few young guys who could turn into great players, but we are so far from being a good team, that there isn't any player we could draft next year that is going to change that in 2025.
