The Panthers have first round grades on 3 QBs.

Not sure.  Especially this year.  All 3 QB's could be there when we pick

I think one will be gone by panthers 6th. Giants should be in the market for a QB, who knows if they believe one of the remaining QBs is worth the 5th.....that also could be a great trade spot for a team that feels the panthers are center sun hot for pickett/willis/corral. 2 *could be picked before 6th, its not insane thinking now....

If you asked me about where QBs were going months ago, I thought it was a struggle to have more than one in the mid-late range(and that team is stoopid). Now is what you see above.

I think the same brain rot that has convinced everyone this QB class is terrible has also convinced everyone that this OT class is particularly exceptional. Neal has all the measurables you could ever want but isn't considered the slam dunk #1 OT available for a reason. Ekwonu is a terrific run blocker but his ability to take on NFL speed rushers off the edge is a question. There are questions about Cross's physicality at the NFL level.

Honestly, I think both these OT and QB classes are fairly typical. Some good prospects but no slam dunks among them.

Penning?

Sure bit on the whole the nfl is pretty dialed in qb wise on what's coming down the pike

Opposite can happen as well, Howell was thought of as the easy 1st overall among many... As a group the NFL is much better, but no one can predict the future thus far...weak teams are much better at drafting than 10 years ago. Theres far less 6th/late round players that turn into elites.

That’s fair. But we aren’t going to have a great QB next year regardless. Whether it’s Darnold or a rookie. The best thing we can do is sure up the left side of our line. Which, pretty much all Panthers fans agree, was as big of a reason we lost as any last season

    • I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.  
    • Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.  
    • The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
