1/17 Athletic/Brugler Mock: Panthers Trade Up

Richardson is a straight-up project. I don't see us passing up another day-one starter to draft AR.

 

The Richardson value is what I find interesting if we miss out on the top-3.  I imagine many aren't fans of that next tier and AR does have tantalizing upside.  Do teams view Tanner McKee in the same ballpark? Or is he meh? And is there a big drop off to Hendon Hooker, Jaren Hall, & Clayton Tune? 

I just wonder how teams will rank Richardson and if he's really high end first rounder.  The microscope on him will be monster in this draft build up.

I love these three picks by Brugler....someone that is one of the most tapped in scouts/analysts out there.

Moving up to 5 seems more realistic than going up to 1 or 3. We would be able to retain most of our valued picks without giving up the farm. Stroud is my favorite of the three and would take care of our biggest glaring need. 

Pairing Stroud & Gibbs w/ Steichen-Brian Johnson or Johnson-Duce Staley/Brunell with a re-signed Bozeman would be an outstanding start.

Also, the DL out of Georgia Tech that we took at 60 is also a low-key promising/upside draft pick. He's freaky athletic at 6'5" 285 and from NC originally.

I’ll take this. 
 

Let’s hope Levis climbs up the QB board. 

I think he will a lot of these GMs will fall in love with him and think they've got the next Josh Allen. Fine by me give me Stroud all day over him

Yeah teams don’t trade out of “sure things.” We inquired about Burrow but the Bengals said nope.

While I definitely agree with you, I think it all comes down to his workouts and how the scouts see him.  You cant trade away your first next year to take a qb just to take one. Over reaching for need puts a lot of teams in a hole quick.  In the history of the panthers how often has trading future draft picks worked well for us?

I have no problem trading down like that IF we get Stroud or Young. No way we do it for Levis. I also think drafting AR at 9 and a RB with our first second round pick are wasteful. Gibbs = small version of Hubbard. 

Lol what? I agree with everything except you’re really comparing Hubbard to Gibbs? What makes you say that? Gibbs is 100x the pass catcher that Hubbard is. Gibbs also has another gear and twitch that is unmatched by Hubbard.

I say dont mortgage future and get Drake Maye next year. Let Sam finish and see what Corral can do.

I would be up starting Corral and see what he can do. If he is good…great. If he sucks then we get a QB in what looks to be a loaded QB class next draft. The problem is the new coach, whoever that will be, won’t be down for this.

    • I'd be very interested in seeing someone point me to a post saying any Panthers fans are unhappy with winning? We're happy the team is winning, but we're still unhappy with Bryce's play ON THE WHOLE. Yes, we recognize he's had a handful of good games, but even in them, he's still not making the type of plays/throws that high level QB's make, at least not on a consistent basis, one or two of those throws every few weeks does not make him a high level QB. Many of us are also able to look at what we see in front of us on the field and extrapolate that out to the future, and we don't see Bryce's play as a way for sustainable success.  If he was anyone else other than our own #1 overall draft pick, say if he was a mid rounder now in his 3rd season here or if he was a FA we picked up at some point, the same fans bowing down to him right now would be calling for him to be replaced and saying he was holding back the team.
    • I was going to add those types of throws as acceptable. I just didn't want to type all that out. In both cases it takes qb control to complete and are rare throws and completions. You may not see 1 an entire game. Most passes require adjustment due either to coverage or a rushed throw.
    • Not 2 seasons in on a guy who everyone knew needed time to round out. Maybe he will, maybe he won't, yet want everyone to have the patience of a saint for Bryce. You all are funny. Kibitzing, huh? Am i breaking up your circlefest or something?
