Picking a guy with a 2nd round or lower grade in the top ten has a very unsuccessful history. That is how you start fuging up a draft.

are you trying to win the draft or win games?  sooner or later, you need a QB.

Nobody is saying overreach but the fact is at some point you have to gamble some.  Unless you have the top pick in a generation QB class there will almost always be better non QBs available.

Losing the draft is how you lose games. 

I am not advocating the top 2 or bust, but you need to believe in the guy or you simply don't take him.

I hope we pick him at this point so I can see some of you guys cry. Good grief 

He's actually going to be a good day one guy for somebody.

I'm on the Official Will Levis Bandwagon and also the Official Myles Murphy Bandwagon but I'm not saying Will should be our pick.

We've been discussing Levis since last season on this here site. 

His OC going to the NFL as well as talent plus injury, although he still had some good games, wasn't the player/offense we saw last season.

He showed off his running ability last season, Will Levis isn't only a QB he's also elite level rushing QB who can deliver blows too at 6'3 230lbs and also runs like a RB if you need him to. 

Him and Corral to me would be redundant because they basically cover all the same skill sets which are many. They both are balanced QBs, equally good at being a running back when needed but both have damn good arms and Matt, slightly better accuracy and pop on his throws.

The only big difference between the two is 1" and 18lbs(Corral draft weight vs today??)

picking nits but MC measured 6'1  212 at the combine and that 212 is certainly not his playing weight

 

Will be interested in seeing Levis and others measurements from this years combine

Corral looks like he's at least taller than Baker listed at 6'1"

Thats cool and all but he officially was measured at 6-1.5 at the combine.  Thats a true measurement  and you are not even factoring in depth perception in that photo

 

Also baker was 6-0.5 at the combine.  Listed weights/heights are not accurate

Oh I did, Baker is still the smallest. I was right behind the bench at fanfest. PJ and Baker were the smallest guys on the field.

Hell, even in high school.

When my high school submitted the team roster to the local paper for their annual high school football preview, I went and looked and found that I was had suddenly become two inches taller and about twenty pounds heavier 😄

      Panthers possibly trading Thielen?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      I agree. I’d make the move because I don’t see us sniffing the playoffs and let’s be honest TMac, Legette and Coker better be our top 3 future. If they aren’t and we need Thielen to replace one of them, then we need to draft yet another 1st round WR, SMH. Suffice it to say, Thielen isn’t good enough to get us into the playoffs so let’s get the young guys starting so we know if they aren’t good enough. We still have so many assumptions about whether players are who we need them to be that holding onto Thielen for 3-7 wins isn’t worth passing on a mid round pick (3rd to 5th/swaps). We’ve had some success with later round picks/UDFAs and need depth.

      If you move Thielen I think you almost have to keep Renfrow. You need some sort of veteran presence in the locker room and Renfrow would be good insurance in the slot. I'm sure we have Coker penciled in to start there but you also have to be keeping Coker in the back of your head as XL insurance on the outside if he doesn't step up. If he flounders again, I wouldn't wait too awfully long to replace him with Coker outside and slide Renfrow into the slot and keep it moving.

      Playing the same role is different than having the same style.  Cam Newton and Drew Brees both played QB but arent the same type in any way.
