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.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
