Back in the 2000 draft, only one QB was selected in the first two rounds (Chad Pennington).

I bet people were saying “there are no franchise QBs in this draft” back then too. 

When you have to go back 20+ years to try to make a point your point might not be all that great.

It's the sad situation we find ourselves in. Let's not make it worse by making desperate decisions. A qb will fall into the fourth round. Most likely several will because they are all developmental qbs this year. It is what it is.

I could see them moving up a few spots if one they think could turn into something.  There will be a few slide down, way down. I'm guessing there be one go undrafted that shocks everyone.

I agree. Fingers crossed.

My post was just another instance of regret of this organization's foolish expenditure of valuable draft capital on “rescue project” veterans because Rhule thinks he’s the smartest person in the room in whatever room he finds himself in.

There have been a couple of years where they should have said it, 2013 comes to mind. It's rare but it does happen.

We've got nothing of real value to trade that we don't need. And we can't trade away our future draft picks and mortgage our future (especially in light of how reluctant top end vets are to come here at the moment). 

We're staying put and taking what we can get when day 3 comes around.

I think those days have come to an end. Now they may be forced to sign another vet to hold the reins until they get a draftee ready but it's only because of necessity and not a reclamation project.

I think it supported and agreed with your point quite nicely since Tom Brady was picked in the sixth round of that draft (because thats what I was doing, AGREEING WITH YOU).

And I chose that year because it was the obvious one that immediately came to mind and I didn’t feel like doing in depth research into other years to find another.

Sorry for agreeing with the point you were making, bro! I didn’t realize that finding franchise starters deep in the draft was a modern phenomenon and could have never, ever happened in the ancient days of the year 2000!

It's all good man. Just misunderstood your point.

the UNC fan gurls salivating over Howell is getting annoying. 

Then ignore it. Funny how there's never any complaints about fanboys of any other college team. Kinda gets annoying listening to the small handful of you whine about it. Yeah, I'm a UNC fan but am I whining about picking an NCSU OT? Nope. I want good players regardless of where they played in college.

Panthers shouldn't give up any draft picks for any QB available in the draft or free agency.  With our defense, just let Darnold hand the ball of all game and occasionally make a play action pass.  Maybe just let CMC play QB. 

We could probably win 8 or 9 games just by doing this.

I think so.  I can see something like us giving up a 2023 3rd rounder, 2022 5th rounder, and Robby Anderson for a mid 2nd rounder this year to grab a QB.  Keep an eye out on NE and GB as potential trade partners 

 

The Ravens just traded Lamar's favorite WR. I wonder how he feels about Robby? They're sitting at #45.

Edit: I'd be willing to eat part of Robby's salary to make this happen @OceanPanther. I get that his trade value is pretty low with a $20M contract hanging around his neck.

    • Same, bro.  Yeah, it just feels it has run its course and I don’t know that we’ll ever get more value.  Plus, with the new ownership, this draft has been super encouraging, so dare I believe maybe this FO can get something to really put us over the top in return for Melo.  I’ll still be a fan of his game and try to keep up with him if we move on, but yeah, I feel it’s time to turn the page. (and side note: I felt so happy after their rookie years because I told everybody I wanted Melo and didn’t trust Ant.  And Melo clearly looked like the better player early…  I thought Ant would bust because all that stuff he said about not loving the game and just his resume to that point…  but damn, if we could go back in time.🤣🤣🤣. I love Ant’s game and at times, when he gets in the zone, he is THE BEST player in the league in my opinion.)
    • Appreciate that, bro!  And I could definitely see that with Cam.  Even though he’s a little younger than me, he is also someone I admire and feel a kinship with for a lot of various reasons. Funny enough, a few years after that encounter with Steve, I went to Charlotte with one of my friends whose brothers owned a moving company at the time.  He dropped me off uptown and went to work the day with them where I would wait until he got done and then we were gonna go to the Bobcats game that night.  So I walk all through that area for hours.  After awhile, I walk back towards the arena and sit in a bench on the backside of the arena, where the practice court and player’s entrance was.  As I’m sitting there, I look up and almost think I’m seeing things - I squint and blink my eyes a couple times just to be sure, and yes…  it’s one of my childhood heroes, Muggsy Bogues walking across the crosswalk and into the arena.  I think he was coaching the Sting then, iirc.  Part of me wanted to just say, “Hey!  Muggsy!  Thank you for the inspiration and memories!  You were one of my favorite players as a kid!”  But, I just watched him walk by and into the arena and thought, “that was cool!”  I also so Miguel Cotto a couple years back while in Orlando and told my kids who it was but didn’t say anything to him.  I think somewhere in my subconscious, that encounter with Steve really made me feel like the gamble on finding out if they’re receptive to interaction just isn’t worth finding out.  At the end of the day, no matter if they’re receptive inspired us or were a hero, unless they initiate it, I likely never will…  because again, they’re humans just like us.  Not anymore unique or special, they just have a highly visible and very public job that we get to watch and in some ways participate.  So, I just appreciate it for what it is.
    • I'm pleasantly surprised they gave it to Bryce Young over Josh Allen. Finally we're getting some respect. Now I'm just hoping the team follows this up accordingly and doesn't lay another egg.
