Panthers may now be hesitant to trade back...

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. 

Hate the fact that Rhule is playing for his job this season and they have to sacrifice a better play in the draft for his security. Besides having the team by the balls with his contract, he has them by the short hairs in the draft

I'm beginning to think his job is not in any danger this season. His seat is a bit warm inside the building but not to the level the fans think or want.

The Aints can package the picks they received from Eagles as an offer to a team to trade up. I just hope we don't bite that hook and get reeled in. The Panthers seem to jump at times to get a chance to get more picks.

I think the best spot to be is in the mid teens down.  The Saints are sitting pretty right now. They would only need to move up a few spots to around say 18 or 19 to get a qb or a decent LT. They wouldn't have to move up to the top 5 unless they just really wanted one if those guys

that's my evaluation, I will promise you that NFL teams feel differently than me 

Yeah, we all have our evaluations. Me too. I think there will definitely be a player worth drafting at 6. Pickett (I know, not a popular choice but that's my evaluation), Cross is worth it imo. He's my preferred LT wherever he's drafted. I think he's the most ready to come in and start immediately. He'll need time to develop into a great LT as all LTs do but he's ready. Same for Pickett. He's the most ready to come in early and take over for Darnold this season and I think he will be good at it to.

The Saints are foolish to give up 2 firsts for a QB that will not beat out Dalton and Crablegs--a #3.  However, the Saints aggression could mean that the Panthers get offers-even if (for example) Willis goes at #5.  If they do not want Pickett, they could gamble and trade with a team like the Seahawks and move back, still possibly landing Pickett and undoubtedly landing Corral if they like him instead.

So it depends on who they like and how many they like. 

Good logical thinking.

None of the QB's in this draft class are worth the #6 overall pick. Let the Saints trade up and waste their draft capital. They are great at doing that. 

If the Panthers didn't think Mac Jones or Justin Fields were worth the #8 overall pick last year, and they think any of the QB's in the 2022 draft class are worth the #6 overall pick, everyone needs to be fired. 

Your point is taken howeverThey had Sam Darnold, who was going to be the savior 

now you could say that they felt darnold was better so they made the move before the draft and the rest is history 

I would like a LT as well but the fact remains Darnold is not the answer 

the fact also remains that darnold has never played a full season and yet again, they just have PJ as backup.  That is not tenable.  It wasn't  tenable last year and less so this year 

Before opening day, they need a NFL backup and a potential starter not named Darnold 

if they don’t answer those needs then consider the possibility that they are letting the season go as it does and Rhule is history 

my hope is they manage to move down two spots, get that LT and get a qb in the second  

people who spend money on this franchise need hope  there is zero tight now and as long as Darnold is under center, that won’t change

    • 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.
