Panthers may now be hesitant to trade back...

Sets up great for the Panthers

slide back and pick up a fantastic OT while letting the Saints mortgage their entire future on some big chances at QB.

Then we pick up a guy in the 2nd with the extra pick and we are on our way.  Next year, when the Saints have no picks, is a much better year for QB anyway

I'm in agreements.  I'm not overly impressed with the QB's that will go first round.  I do like the choices for OLine.

I think he’s stated over and over and over again that he’s always doing what’s in the panthers best interest. Nobody has ever said he’s on the hot seat. We assume it, but I don’t think it to be the case. 

Do you normally expect teams to actually come out and say "Yes, we're going to fire this coach if he doesn't win this many games this season"? 🙄

Unfortunately, Matt Rhule is playing for his job, and doesn’t care about next year. So, any chance of bettering our draft for next year, probably won’t happen. 

All the clever planning means nothing with this factor weighing us down. Unless it’s a deal that is just too good to refuse no way we trade down. Rhule may have been neutered but he is still the head coach, and one playing for his future.

I hope the Panthers keep their first round pick and select what should be a generational talent at left tackle. We haven’t seen enough for an extended period of time to know if Christensen can handle the position. We have needed a solid left tackle as long as we have needed a quarterback. If we want to take a flyer on a quarterback in the draft Fitterer can get creative and find one. 

So you think there will be 3 generational LTs in the first 6 picks? People throw out words and don't even know what they mean.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
