“I don’t think they draft a QB”

But honestly, I think this reporter guy is full of poo and just talking out of his ass on the off chance that we don't draft a QB. We don't have a coaching staff yet. The folks with a lot of input on this aren't in place yet. True organizational level scouting on draft prospects is really just getting going. If you're saddling a new coach with Corral and/or Darnold, then yeah... welcome back, Wilks. Because dudes with other options are gonna peace out on that noise.

We don’t even have a GM yet. Or really even an owner. Despite the positions not being vacant.

I am not sure how anyone is making that statement with no coach and staff on board yet.

Derek Carr, draft a guy where we're comfortable taking one.  Carr, rookie, Corral, and Darnold go into camp.

I believe that Sam Darnold would be history if the Panthers signed Derek Carr.

That'd seem like a legitimate possibility...

Will Kunkle who covers the Panthers just said on WFNZ 

“I don’t think the Panthers draft a QB”  

“They don’t like any of the QBs that are expected to be available.  And do not want to move up for one of these guys.”

We're certainly approaching the season for it.

Why would Darnold go into camp if they're not going to re-sign him?

It's mandatory that each off season sports reporters turn to "anonymous sources" to tell fan bases their favorite team's secret thoughts on the draft and which player and position they value. These "anonymous sources" are usually the either the sports writer's imagination, or people who are not involved in the draft process. The reason for making up stories is to generate clicks for money, and because sports writer's are held to the lowest possible standards when it comes to the draft. It's essentially print whatever you want to get attention, and just make sure your tall tale references anonymous sources who will never be named because they don't exist.  

[4Corners]

Stroud is worthy of a high pick. I’d pass on the Levis and Richardson. 

[pantherj]

An anonymous source told me that we're interested in taking a WR at the 9th pick. "We just don't like the value for a QB at 9." said my anonymous source. No I won't name the source, not even after the draft is over. You'll never know my source.

I think people are just trying to read between the Tea leaves about the news that CJ Stroud might be going back to school, because Levis’ odds to go #1 have shot up tremendously over the past eight hours.

I think he’d have a decent chance to win a Natty but I think next years class qb caliber is gonna bump him down stock wise and I doubt his ceiling changes.

[pantherj]

Oh by the way the next step is to say the contrary with another anonymous source, so I'll go ahead in do that part now ahead of time.

An anonymous source told me that the Panthers are in fact interested in taking a QB at 9th. "We like this group of QB's, but we want to be smart and stay put. A guy we like may fall."

I'll do the other ones that are being written now for the coming weeks and months ahead.

The Panthers are looking to trade up for a QB according to my source.

The Panthers are looking to trade down for a QB according to my source.

And a few other variations of these types of made up stories.

So we are giving information to media now to help our draft strategy.
