I dont get it

What isn't there to get? Rhule is not going to hinge his season and NFL career on another season of Darnold willingly. Sam's little podcast interview only drove the point home even further about him and made him less desirable to the Panthers fanbase. If you don't want a rookie quarterback this year at all costs go ahead and prep the Jimmy G or Baker Mayfield jersey.

Panthers are going to trade back at least once and walk away with Howell or Corral.  So it was written. 

I cant tell you all how much I am looking forward to my favorite 3 days of the year

Eagles jump to #6 to grab a stud DE. We get #15 (Corral), #51 (best OL / DL available), #101, and Mr. Mustache  - who can compete with Corral or back him up for years to come.

Edit - OOPS, their pick is # 18, we might need a little more from them to make this happen

I'll believe it when I see it because neither make any sense at all.  

They aren't Sam Darnold. I don't want em' either but I've been trying to tell you "let's roll with Sam" folks. No one in the building wants to see that again.

So draft a LT and go into the season with Darnold? Or draft a LT and trade future pick for Howell?

Draft a LT and roll with Sam. We win a 2023 high draft pick if Sam poops the bed. We have our franchise QB if Sam plays well enough to push us way down 2023 the draft. Win-win.

If we trade the 1st round 2023 draft pick, then I will leave the forum until Rhule is fired.

I would bet money that Darnold is our starting qb week 1 at this point.  No rookie, no injured Jimmy and no Baker can stop this train. 

 

Might as well embrace it and see this puppy through.  We (rhule and co) traded valuable assets and now are paying out the ass for darnold, on top of singing his praises for a year.  Make it work rhule

Trade down to acquire more draft capital. Take a QB later in the 1st.

I don't think this QB class is as bad as folks are saying or that this OT class is as special as they are saying. Everything draft related seems to get hugely exaggerated.

I am not seeing anyone paying the price for #6 this year.  There just isnt that much high end talent that could slip to us and I dont see anyone giving us fair value.

If Fitterer can trade back, pick up extra choices and stay in the top 15 I think most of us would be inclined (or at least understand the rationale )to make the deal.

I just don't think the fans and pundits (like Josh Norris) can go into this draft assuming someone is going to want trade up to #6 knowing how much they may have to give up in return. Hope for the best, but plan for the worst. If no trade partner emerges you have to be ready to take a LT or QB once you're on the clock. 

Since teams know we don't pick again until day 3, I could see some front offices refusing to make deals with us just to keep us in our current situation.

I disagree. On paper, the edge rushers and OTs are strong. There's also potentially two top 10 CBs and there may be a WR in there too. Those are premium positions.

3 LTs could have top 10 grades (Ickey, Neal, Cross)

3 DEs could have top 10 grades (Walker, Thibodeaux, Hutchinson)

So if a QB, WR, CB, or S is drafted in the top 5, there is a major stud there for a trade....Gonna happen, folks--that is why we are taking such a close look at the top 5 qbs...

Well, if you don't just take one of those top DE's or LT's.....that's just dumb.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      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.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      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.
