Carr.

I was dead set against another reclamation project but I don’t trust any of these QBs enough to bet the farm on. 

This team is ready for a QB and Carr isn’t a reclamation project.  He isn’t chopped liver as they say, Panthers would probably be favored to win the division with him, I would think. 

For that matter if a QB they love fell to 9 you they still take him if they felt that strongly. I wouldn’t expect that to happen but if so, it’s a problem that can be lived with better than no QBs. And we need a room with at least one to train. Two being groomed is better but if Carr is the guy they will need an experienced backup.

Mahomes was a QB traded up for… Just saying..

Yes he was. But not a trade into the top 5.  What the Chiefs gave up for that pick was really not that much. They had the 27th pick that year. They traded that with a 3rd rounder and their 2018 first round pick to move up.

 

That’s reasonable. Compare that to what other teams have traded to move up into the top 5 for a QB.

Just saying that’s a lot of criteria to make a point.. When in reality depending on the situation trading up has worked for teams and is a necessity when you are convinced that player is a difference maker..

Completely agree.  My point was to say trading into the top 5 for a QB isn’t the sure fire way to win a Super Bowl the way some seem to feel it is. Plenty of teams have found success throughout the draft and through free agency and trades. 
 

 Another note to consider is the influences on Fitterer and Reich. Seattle was able to get to three Super Bowls and win one in the last 20 years with a 6th round and 3rd round QB.  Philadelphia won a Super Bowl with a 3rd round QB and just got to another Super Bowl with a 2nd round QB. 
 

Of course that doesn’t mean that is the only option. But I don’t think Fitterer and Reich will be locked in on only looking at QBs in the top 5 of the draft.

Why is nobody suggesting Aaron Rodgers?

 

Im like the only person who has discussed the idea. A 2 year run with Rodgers would be worth it. Would be like the Brady/Bucs run. We have enough pieces to win the NFC with Rodgers. Maybe get him a TE in FA and we are set.

Because Rodgers may wind up with the Jets.

My thought is to trade up for the #1 draft choice, assuming the Bears are gullible.  ( I do not recommend a Mike Ditka style, trade away the future.  ). Leave that for the Saints.

my 2nd choice is to bring in Carr if available.  (There are several teams trying to bring in Carr.)

3rd Choice is to go with the draft,  

Jackson has too much baggage.

Jamis Winston would be ok,, only if he came with tranquilizers to keep him from panicking and throwing to the other team.

      RUMORS: Panthers schedule leak

      By rayzor · Posted

      Especially glad there's no Thursday games. I hate them. They're dangerous. They really fug up a routine and unless you're team is coming off a bye, they play the game with little rest or prep.

      Where will the wins come from? (my early predictions)

      By rayzor · Posted

      Sober. Still feeling it. I really like how the schedule is laid out for us. Perfect for a new HC and rebuilding team. Aside from the Bengals, there aren't  any good teams before the bye. Chargers will be, but they're having to figure poo out just like we are and they'll be coming here for an early game. That one is a toss up. I like our defense against them. I think we'll give the Bengals a fight, but I wouldn't put money on us winning that one. But the saints can be swept. They're beat up and just don't have much going on. They'll be at the bottom of the division. I feel like we will split with the falcons and the bucs. There's nothing scary about the raiders or that washington team. Chicago is another toss up, but they aren't scary either....not yet anyways. We're getting them early in the season so I like our chances. I especially like our defense against a rookie QB. And the broncos....boring. Giants....again, boring. Looking at this, we've got a good defensive thing going on. I think the unit will be better this year a d we're in season 2 of Evero. I like us especially against rookie QBs, and we'll have at least 3 we're facing before the bye. We come in and play smash mouth football and just keep hitting (pounding) away and I think we're competitive. It's that schedule after the bye that scares me. Hopefully by that point they've built up a lot of confidence. You get a scrappy dawg that's got some confidence and a lot of fight in him and you've always got a shot. I think that's what we'll be this year. This year isn't about winning all the games. It's about building confidence and learning what we've got to do. But looking at that later schedule and it's not horrible. We've got the eagles and chiefs....that's scary, but then we've got the cardinals and cowboys at home...and it's the cowboys in December. When have they been scary in December? And we've got division games in there as well. I think we'll do ok. The more I look at it, the better I feel about it.
