How do you do Sundays when our team plays? Do you root against them and get mad if they do well? It just feels weird to me and I haven't been. I've just been rooting for good play and if we get a win I feel good for the guys who get it. I don't understand this other way of wishing bad upon them and for them to be crushed every game. I realize a higher pick is always better even for trading down for multiple picks band different scenarios but how do you go about rooting against your boys so easily and also who is this Andrew Luck type QB that is a can't miss you are wanting exactly? Which QB is it? To me they all look nothing like a polished Andrew Luck or a big freak of nature with electric level excitement like Cam Newton. Who is your guy that causes you to root against our boys every Sunday?

It's the Perennial fantasy football league mentality. As soon as you are out of contention you start trading all your players away for draft picks next year.  Only to have another losing season. Rinse and Repeat.

I can't and never will rout for a loss.  If we lose, so be it but I want us to fight until the end.  The players will do the same.

It's a loser's mentality to want to tank every season.  It's been that way for the past 3+ years.   Maybe we should just IR everyone and let our PS guys play next year so we have a shot at Maye.

It's not a loser's mentality to realize winning games that don't matter anywhere but the stat sheet doesn't actually make the team better. Man, that Washington win against Rivera sure felt good. Granted it cost us our shot at 2 QBs who are looking pretty darn good right now but that win is going to carry me for the next 10 years of pathetic football year after year. Man that was a great win. I dont even remember the fuging score.

I'm not rooting for them to win. I'm not rooting for them to lose. I don't care who they fire. I don't care who they trade. Figure it out. Put a quality product on the field for more than a single season. If they want this fanbase to show up and be proud, do something worthy of our adoration.

If you want us to tank, it's a loser's mentality.  It's that simple.  We've discussed this on here and most tankers believe there are only 2 players in the entire draft worthy of being picked up.  You don't reach for a QB that has too many question marks. 

Every single QB in this draft has an upside and downside.  We'll most likely be in the top 5 and I will not be surprised if we trade down.

Who cares right now? We haven't even seen any of the pre-draft workouts. We are right now the 2nd worst team based on draft pick slot. 3-8 and in last place in the worst division in football. We are basically out of the playoffs for the 4th straight year. Why do you act like us tankers are having any impact at all? If you want to talk about how we are somehow going to make the playoffs when we are 3 losses behind Tampa with only 6 games left and they have a similar schedule to us, feel free. Also, the division is the only path. We are 4 and 5 losses (with 6 games left) behind the bottom two WC teams and they both beat us. We have no shot at the WC spots. 

Personally, I still don't think we will get one of the top 2 QBs. Our remaining schedule has a couple wins it and there are an absurd 7 more teams with 3 wins. a quarter of the teams in the NFL are 3-7 or 3-8. Where we go with QBs is a guessing game. Without the Burns haul, I think we aren't in good shape for going after the top 2 QBs this year or next.

You're basically defending tanking but disagreeing with the OP's thread title of wanting to tank for a mystery QB he hasn't named

For the 50th time who do the tankers want at QB? We need receipts or these threads need to end

Another thing bunge with me is If we do identify our franchise guy I don’t want to have to trade a fortune to move up because of meaningless wins. That’s where my tanking hope comes in

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Crixtala · Posted

      all the trades and using PFFs draft rankings and Gemini's analysis: This is a high-value mock draft that effectively uses trade-down strategies to rebuild the Carolina Panthers' defensive interior and add depth to a roster with multiple holes. By turning mid-round capital into a volume of picks, you've secured several "sliding" stars and developmental high-ceiling players. Based on 2026 PFF big board trends and player value, here is the analysis: Draft Grade: A- The Top Picks: Interior Dominance  * 19. Peter Woods (DT, Clemson): Getting Woods at 19 is a steal. Heading into the 2025 season, he was viewed as a potential top-5 talent. While his production dipped slightly, his 4.75 40-yard dash at 315 lbs is elite. He provides the Panthers with a versatile disruptor who can play 3-tech or slide outside.  * 63. Dontay Corleone (DT, Cincinnati): "The Godfather" is one of the best pure nose tackles in the class. Pairing him with Woods creates an immediate identity for the Panthers' front seven. PFF loves his "unmovable" anchor. Securing him at the end of Round 2 after trading down from 51/53 is excellent value. The Mid-Round Steals  * 83. Deontae Lawson (LB, Alabama): Lawson is a high-IQ "green dot" linebacker. Many scouts projected him as a late 1st or early 2nd rounder before an ACL injury in late 2024. Getting a 2-time Alabama captain at 83 to lead the defense is a massive win for culture and stability.  * 130. Drew Allar (QB, Penn State): This is the "high-upside lottery ticket" pick. Allar has prototypical size (6'5", 240 lbs) and a massive arm. His stock fell due to a 2025 ankle injury and inconsistency, but at 130, he’s a low-risk, high-reward backup/successor to Bryce Young if the former No. 1 pick continues to struggle. Trade Analysis & Late Round Value Your strategy of "tier-dropping" (trading 51 for 53/121 and 53 for 63/95) allowed you to stay in the same talent bracket while picking up Kevin Coleman Jr. (WR) and Genesis Smith (S).  * 168. Parker Brailsford (OC, Alabama): Great value for a technical center who can compete for a depth spot.  * 169. Tacario Davis (CB, Washington): At 6'4", he is a rare physical specimen at corner. PFF and other boards often have him as a Day 2 talent; getting him in the 5th round (via the 161 trade) is arguably your best value pick of the draft. Summary of Picks | Pick | Player | Position | School | Analysis | | 19 | Peter Woods | DT | Clemson | Elite traits; Top-10 ceiling. | | 63 | Dontay Corleone | DT | Cincinnati | Best run stuffer in the class. | | 83 | Deontae Lawson | LB | Alabama | Vocal leader; sliding due to injury. | | 121 | Kevin Coleman Jr. | WR | Missouri | Speed threat to complement the room. | | 130 | Drew Allar | QB | Penn State | High-ceiling developmental passer. | | 169 | Tacario Davis | CB | Washington | Massive reach/length for a late flyer. | Final Verdict You addressed the trenches aggressively and took advantage of "injury discounts" on Lawson and Allar. The only minor critique is that the roster still feels thin at Edge (until the 211 pick), but the sheer volume of talent added to the interior DL and Secondary compensates for it.
