Welp… Stroud is the guy, right?

[TheMostInterestingMan]

Lol but seriously, we will have the #1 pick and a QB will be taken. I dunno if it’s Stroud but that’s where I would place my bet.  
 

We have compiled more day 2 picks so what will the plan be? Assuming we really are shopping Shaq, we have to grab a LB. TE is also a need, but I’m not sure we wouldn’t address that on FA this year. Could we target a day 2 RB? I don’t like Hubbard and Foreman is fairly one dimensional. We need another DE. 
 

As bad as we are, I actually really do like this team. We are 2-3 pieces of having a really strong defense imo. What we lack across the entire staff is coaching. Get some NFL caliber play callers and then defense is really good. 
 

Offensively, I do have more questions, but I feel our line has FINALLY been addressed. Inserting a rookie behind this line is much easier than what we had in the past decade. I don’t think we trade DJ unless he demands it. But even so, I dunno if we have a good #2 WR. I feel like we have DJ and multiple guys in the #3 WR range. So after round 1 where do you think this team looks to go? Having a few day 2 picks makes it interesting. What say you? 
 

I realize part of this may well depend on the incoming staff, but we have months of nothing but speculation at this point. It’s an oddly exciting time to be a Panthers fan knowing a #1 pick at QB will generate a lot of interest and possibility, but damn if this season isn’t excruciatingly painful.

If the draft was held today, yeah. Still a lot of college football to be played though.

Imagine what home game attendance is gonna look like the rest of the season.

Lose Proud for Stroud… assuming we’ll also need a running back. Give me DeWayne McBride from UAB with one of our seconds.

That’s not too hard. I would say packed with plenty of fans… wearing green, red… whatever color isn’t ours really lol

That Syracuse RB is a stud. I'll take that guy.

Hard to judge who the draft picks might be till we know who the head coach is.

John Fox would 100% want Will Anderson if he was around today

[Aussie Tank]

I want Bryce Young in the first and Gibbs in the second

70% opposing fans, 25% empty seats, 5% PSL owners who couldn’t sell their seats.

My ideal scenario right meow:

Get CJ Stroud and Jordan Addison to be coached up by Shane Steichen. 

Levis and Young are still in the running. But bullet to the head right now, Stroud.

It is, but I said as much. But at this point the rest of this season is just draft speculation and I wonder what we perceive as our biggest needs heading into next year.
