I am somewhat confident he will be the pick, but I could see us going with Willis (if there) or Corral--we really have Corral undervalued because he was not active until his pro day.  I think the Panthers really like one or two of these QBs. 

People might click this thread and make a post to tell you that this sentiment has already been shared and acknowledged, but I think that was on the Pickett pro day-it is interesting to see what people think now.  I give Pickett even odds against the field.

I'm really studying Pickett, Corral, snd Willis right now. Howell is the one I want to review after his Pro Day. Not that I am a scout or anything but what I'm finding is all 3 of these could work for us. Pickett is the most ready by all accounts but Corral played in the SEC so he has good experience against some tough competition. Willis is the most fun to watch and his upside is what coaching will do to bring all of his skills out. That's a problem that I have we us drafting him, do we have the coaches for him? The more I look the more we may need to look at Corral. His experience can't be overlooked.

No prediction yet because of still looking at all of the top 5. Pickett is the thread but I'm having a hard time getting excited about him being the pick. I could get excited about Willis for what I saw at his Pro Day and his interviews. It will be interesting to see how he develops.

I'd rather take a tackle at 6 than any of them. I don't think our staff has the patience for Willis even though he has the most upside. Pickett will be like a smarter Darnold but less arm strength, could turn into Blaine Gabbert because of the bad situation. Corral's pro day was super weird to me, didn't really like his vibe with his WR's and he'll probably get injured a lot. I'd take any in the 2nd in a different draft but Rhule has us in a desperate situation

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
