Round 2-3 predictions. Do the Panthers get a pick,?

Id say just leave next years 1st and 2nd alone and at max, just use 1 future pick. If we can maneuver one of our 5ths, 6th, and next years 4th for a 3rd that would be fine. Or maybe throw in a player to get a second.

If we want to take a shot at a QB gotta give up something

I like this.  I think you will have to throw in the player though.  WE will need to be prepared to give up something.  Even if we dont get a pick I suspect Fitt will be burning up phone lines trying to.

We have very little to trade away in the way of  personnel or draft picks that would interest other teams . We don’t want to give up starters on rookie contracts ,, we have literally no draft capital.  Btw , no one wants Robbie,, we don’t want him,, ( I’d love to eat crow and someone trade for him )

I know many kept saying ‘trade back’ yesterday,, but as we saw,, no one wanted our pick.  There are teams who need QB’s , but the class is not good. We can want to trade back,, but other had no interest. 

Actually plenty of teams would like Robby - most consider his drop in production due to our QB play and offensive scheme.  He would be worth Hollywood or AJ value but plenty of value considering the WR run yesterday and other WR trades.  

And the reason we didn't trade back (if it was due to lack of offers) was likely due to the way the draft went...the stud DLinemen were gone by 6, no one had faith in these QB's clearly, and the teams that needed the OT's were all up next and could get one for free.  And we didn't want to trade out of one of the top 3 OT's so none of the later guys had good enough offers.

2nd round is a completely different ballgame and value - early 2nd rounders are worth 1/3 what our #6 was worth....it doesn't take too much to get back there.  But I guarantee you Willis and Corral are gone by pick #8....no way they get past NY, HOU, and SEA considering their 1st rounds.  I think our only shot is Robby & 2023 3rd rounder traded to KC or CHI - but even then I don't know that we get Howell so probably still not worth it.

I think they're gonna trade future picks.

I'm not so sure.

They said last year they really didn't want to part with their first, second and third rounders, and they didn't.

This year they say they don't want to part with any of their future picks, and given what it most likely feels like sitting here with no picks till the fourth, I think I believe them.

They're gonna make a move for a QB one way or the other and I don't see how to do it without touching future picks or giving up a quality young player.

FOR EXAMPLE: If they really like Howell or Willis or Ridder---as a developmental player who could start next year, I think I would cough up a future second-round pick and trade the fourth to move up.  It would probably cost our 2023 second rounder and this year's fourth rounder.

If we move up to grab Howell, it would mean the following:

  • Our last 2 drafted QBs were Charlotte (area) natives.
  • Our first and second rounder in 2022 were Charlotte (area) natives.
  • Our first and second rounders were from NC State and UNC.

Consider that last year's first rounder was from the Univ. of So. Carolina, it sure looks like we are into home cooking.  Our first rounders over the past 2 years were within a 100-mile radius (approx) of Charlotte

    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
