Were you wanting Howell? Looks like he is starting next year for Rivera.

Wanting and expecting it to be Howell. Was watching live when the trade was announced and just knew he was the selection, until it wasn’t. Not that I think Howell is going to be an all-pro, but I loved his value for our 3rd round pick. Knowing he lasted until the 5th made me sick we traded up. 
 

Obviously, Purdy looks like the biggest miss with that pick now, but I’m not claiming I saw that coming.

I've been watching this dude wonder around the forum pushing his idiotic anti QB drafting shtick. Stupidity giving me a got damn headache. He acts like we are the ones drafting the players, give it a fugging rest. The Panthers are going to trade up and draft a QB this year and if you think otherwise, you truly do not pay attention to trends and what our decision makers are saying in these interviews.

but yes hell31ok, please tell us more about how we should draft a FUGGING OFFENSIVE GUARD at 9 because our starting guard is recovering from a knee injury and might not be ready in time.

Oh he is awful. Nothing is worse than a smug comment from someone who doesn’t know what he is talking about. I mean we signed a former QB offensive HC to help us find a QB. Top 10 drafted OL are typically LTs (like the one we literally drafted last year in the top 10). We aren’t drafting OL in the top 10…

Purdy has a lot going for him in SF. HC, OL, TE, RB, and WR1 are some of the league’s best. Howell looked decent with much less in Washington.

It's usually the drafts where people think is weak at QB that have a couple of stars.

 

We need to grab one of these QB's. We can't keep going the vet QB route. At least draft one and try to develop them. I mean that's why we hired Frank for right?

100% I’m on board with getting a QB I’m just nervous about giving him a rookie QB plus a lack of 1st round picks for his first two years. 
 

I really hope we stay put but that’s mostly because my formative fan years were with Fox/Hurney.

Maye would be a top 3 pick in this year’s draft if eligible. Y’all can blah blah about ACC and talent if you’d like, but 6’4, 220lb QBs who can run and have an excellent feel for the game don’t come around too often. 

He would be buts it’s early.  He will be dissected just like everyone else.  Do like Drake Maye and his pedigree

As a neutral Auburn fan I agree. He might be the top pick…

    • This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY. 
    • The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.
    • I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
