Trevor Lawrence proves going #1 doesn't mean much

What’s whack is the modern day impatience that says someone sucks if they don’t throw 5 touchdowns, zero picks and run 100 yards a game out of the gate.

the second is there is so much success and failure riding on who drafts who. There are tons of “busts” that would have been at least serviceable if drafted by betters. There’s also good and greats that would have been busts or journeymen if they were drafted different.

Trevor Lawrence may or may not be “generational talent” but it’s hard to tell by who drafted him👀

We could be like the Dolphins, tank and be one game ahead of where we are at.  

The front office is already tanking. The coach and players are of course going to shoot for the moon. That moon might be a 6 win, one and done in the playoffs season however.

They called him a "generational talent" at QB. All the pundits said he was a "no miss" pick.

I just see an average QB that really hasn't done much so far in the league. Going #1 is still a crap shoot.

Panthers need to play to win and not put hopes on getting that "no miss" QB at #1.

Let the chips fall where they may. Get a quality HC and use the picks and FA to fill out the team. 

They can find a good QB after the top two. Nothing is a sure thing.

 

Typical Clemson product.

People buying into this next class of QB's from the jump was dumb. It's like 4 guys and maybe 1 guy is gonna be a starter beyond their rookie contract

Already in his 2nd offense on his 2nd year.  Hard to claim he even had a real rookie season last year. 

Weak talent around him.  Real bad year 1.

- 65% completion percentage 

- Tied for 8th in TDs (somewhere around there.  Not sure if all stats have pulled over this week yet)

 - has had the lead in every game in the 4th Q but the Eagles game.  Takes awhile for QBs to learn to win late.  

Trevor isn’t playing bad LMAO.  Trevor is literally what you tank to build around.  Build around being what they are suppose to do now.  Seems like most people are glancing at win column and little else on this one.

I get where you're coming from but I don't wanna be stuck with where we are. Ayutthaya the exception of Corral. If like to see what he brings... we need a QB we can build with...

Those percentages are completely made up unless you can show me some data to back them up.

It was an estimate, but I went and looked it up.  I was probably being generous with the 25%

Here is the list of qb's picked in the top five since 2011 (I started with Cam).  And I left out the qb's picked after 2020, well the jury is still out on those guys.

2020
Burrow
Tua
2019
Murray
2018
Mayfield
Darnold
2017
Trubisky
2016
Goff
Wentz
2015
Winston
Mariotta
2013
Blake Bortles
2012
Luck
RGIII
2011

Cam.  

Personally, I would only call three of those picked in the top five elite.  Cam, Luck, and Burrow.  3 out of 14.  

I don't feel like looking up 6-10, but off the top of my head, we have Allen, Mahomes, and Herbert.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
