3) Carolina Panthers: Will Anderson Jr., EDGE, Alabama

With the top two quarterbacks off the board, Panthers fans look to bolster their defense. After keeping Brian Burns through the trade deadline, they add Will Anderson Jr. in this 2023 NFL Mock Draft. An absolute game-changer, Anderson could be an instant impact player for Carolina.

Anderson may not have as much of an impact as a quarterback, but he’s a player that can make offensive coordinators rethink their plan of attack. Like his teammate above, he’s most likely ready to prove that his team is still a playoff contender. I can only imagine how terrifying that will look.

I also would rather have Anderson than Levis. Levis also performed awful against Florida and we don't play defense. Anthony Richardson lit up Tennessee way better than Levis as well. 

I'm intrigued as fug by Richardson. I lived in CO when Josh Allen was at Wyoming and honestly Richardson looks like the same guy as Josh Allen in college. The question is will lightning strike twice? I gave Allen zero chance at becoming a legit NFL QB. I've never seen anyone improve so dramatically as a pure passer. There's not even a close second that comes to mind for me.

If the board fell like this and we chose Anderson I would be happy.  I know there is a desperate need for a QB but I hope we don't reach.  I know the metaphor is to keep swinging but you cant keep swinging at wild pitches.

But it's what you talk about when you're 2-6. Talking draft before Halloween is a Tepper era Panthers tradition.

Also we've pretty much seen enough of the college football season to start ranking these guys. Today for instance, if Levis can't do something against Missouri who seem about as mid as you can get, then he's gonna start falling off these top 3 lists. Hendon Hooker is playing Georgia, that'll be another good chance for him to shoot up boards even though they're aren't dominant as they were talent wise last year

Honestly, I agree. I'd rather draft Anderson and hope Richardson fell or take some of that CMC trade draft capital and jump back up into the late 1st to take Richardson. I can stomach those types of wild swings but wild swings in the top 3? Man...

I forgot Tennessee was playing Georgia today. That's must see TV.

I don't see Hooker as much of an NFL prospect if I'm being brutally honest but that doesn't mean he's not a helluva college QB.

mock drafts in November....not worth an opinion

His 2022 Mock from last November. Rattler and Howell go 1 and 2 followed by a whole bunch of Who? What?

He doesn't have the real 1st pick in the first round?

https://www.pff.com/news/draft-2022-nfl-mock-draft-houston-texans-spencer-rattler-new-york-giants-quarterback-sam-howell

Early mock drafts are about 95% mock drafter and 5% league sources and scouting consensus.

Towards the draft it gets to about 60/40.

      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

      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.
