The Panthers will 100% trade up and draft a QB

Don’t bet your house on it because they aren’t giving away valuable picks to move up if one of their top candidates doesn’t slide outside the top 5. 

If Stroud falls to 3 they have to do it. 4-8 could all take him. If Young and Stroud go 1 and 2 then yeah maybe look into pick 5 or 6 if you really like AR and he's still there

Maybe, maybe not. They could take 2 1sts from Indy to move down to 4 and still get the guy they had targeted all along. Either way at 4 they'd get Anderson or Carter. 

Or better yet get a known defensive player in Burns and a first instead.

If they end up trading up and mortgaging the future for Levis … man that’ll be a hard sell. But it’s the Panthers… so I wouldn’t be surprised…

 

I mean if Stroud is gone , then I get it… but passing on Stroud for Levis would be a tough pill to swallow.

I would argue all your points actually mean we are not trading up! If you want to trade you really want to smoke screen as much as possible to give the impression you don't really care either way.

Not doing so it's putting yourself over the barrel and asking to be abused.

If 4 QBs go in the top 8 then this was a very strong QB class…odds are by draft day the top position players will rise and some of these QBs fall 

It means it was a QB needy draft, and it very much is.  No teams other than the Cardinals and Lions are 100% sold their QBs.  The Cardinals don't necessarily love Kyler either, they are married to that contract though.  Th  Lions are rolling with Goff. 

This is a decent QB draft and only because of the top 2 guys.

    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
    • It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
