Running QBs will never win you super bowl. So many people impressed will they QBs throwing at air. 

I think the idea for WIllis is to try to develop him into a Josh Allen.  Cannon arm, great athlete and develop him into a pocket QB who can keep the defense honest and extend plays with his legs.  I hope no one's plan is to Mike Vick him and have him constantly run/take hits.

Is it being a Cam nut hugger to say Newton gives Carolina a better chance to win in 2022 than any FA or QB in this draft, because he most likely does. Fans want to see Cam with time to throw

Do you have a numeric coincidence to support it?

Jhc does anybody here think logically...

 

NONE OF THESE QBS WOULD MAKE THE FIRST ROUND NEXT YEAR

It doesn't matter how they would do in the 2023 draft, it doesn't matter how Willis would do in the 2018 draft.

 

They're in this draft, and we have the 6th pick in this draft, and we're not bad enough to get a top 3 pick in the NEXT draft with the "good qbs"

It doesn't....so you would pick joe blow in 2022 because just have to have a rookie vs getting a better qb in a better qb class

I feel like we have a big 4 based on value/need in Icky, Neal, Willis, Pickett.  If they are all gone by 6 we could trade down or look at plan B which is Corral/Cross or of course another position...

I'm staying at 6 and if the 2 LT's and Willis are gone already I'd trade back 3-10 spots or so for a 2nd rounder, grab Penning or Zion,  grab whatever in the 2nd between the best QB/LB/DE available

My only question to both of you what if we can’t trade back it’s not that easy in that small window to get a offer you like etc. my question what do we do if we don’t have that trade back option Willis and both top LT’s are gone. The top CB or DE good enough?

I think that scenario would be Pickett.

You see it the way I do. There's is no guarantee you'll be able to trade back. If you unable to move off of the 6th spot when you're on the clock what's the plan? And, let's say you do trade back, you still may not get the guy (s) you want.

I definitely wouldn't draft a CB. A stud pass rusher would be nice, but I think you'd have to go with a QB, unless the team acquired a starter between now and the draft.

It just doesn’t make sense for a desperate HC to draft a qb who will obviously not save his job.. 

It does if he thinks that quarterback will save his job.

For what it's worth, word has been that the Panthers staff doesn't see this year's quarterback class as a bad one.

      He is a great guy but a horrible reporter. He makes my skin crawl when I hear his name. I heard that babies cry and dogs attack him when he enters a room. Other than that he is a good dude. Now go burn in hades u sum bit.

      The job just really passed him by. He came up when basically you just needed to get three or four quotes, toss a couple of team provided stats in there, and stretch it out to column length. you got your copy in by 330, out the door by 4, then chill/shmooze the rest of the day. If you were really good you got a book deal. Every now and then you got to write an editorial. The goal of the profession was like Peter King where ostensibly you’re a beat writer for whomever but you get paid to just shoot the poo. now it’s a 24 hour job, you’ve gotta be social media savvy, the pace has increased substantially, you’re expected to produce more than ever, you gotta be able to look through bullshit etc. there’s still risk of industry capture where you just become a mouth piece. Sheena Quick is obviously shameless. I don’t think Newton ever aspired to be more than an inoffensive beat writer, but even that relatively simple role was just more than he was cut out for. its even worse when you’re covering a team that expects the Fourth Estate to act as a PR extension, or considers them on par with buying Twitter bots to promote Bryce. there were over thirty papers that covered the panthers first training camp. In that environment there’s room for boring guys like newton, and they may even be incentivized to push the boundary a little. But today that just isn’t the case and most of the guys are hanging on until retirement (person, gantt) or they’re good and gonna be matched up like Jordan. im not defending the current state of sports journalism, just saying that what counts as a meat and potatoes beat writer passed newton by. He’s retiring well past his sell by date, but that’s pretty common for his generation in general.
