Charlie Campbell: Panthers love Bijan Robinson

It would be a very Panthers thing to do to draft another RB in the top 10. Have people not learned anything? We just had a journeyman RB rip off multiple 100+ yd games with multiple TDs because our o-line was mauling people. If you have a good o-line, it doesn't matter who is back there. Rounds 3-6 for RBs. That position is devalued in today's NFL.

I think every GM in the league has Bijan in their top-5 overall players/talent. 

The article says if they don't go QB in R1, but doesn't say at 9. Fitts even eluded to trading back at his presser, so I could easily see where Carolina doesn't get a QB (for cost, their guy is gone, etc.) .... and drafting Robinson after a trade back. 

Especially if we sign Carr and have to choose between Boze and Foreman. Keep the OL intact and bring in a talent like Robinson in the teens. Done.

Thats the dilemma. I love bijan and hes been my #2 since four months ago. Still RB value shows you can get close to the same production in the 4th-UDFA groups and the FA bares the same deal. 2.5 mill for 1k and 8 TDs >>>> 14mill 1.3k and 10 TDs. Its the safety spot on offense and been that way since the panthers were drafting dwil and stew. 

I believe finessserererererere knows this and ready to adjust. I know most hated chubba, but after the boze at C, he looked great for 4th rounder.

From the rumor mill, apparently Robinson is near the top of most draft boards in terms of overall prospect quality. It's also unlikely he ends up being a top 10 pick.

Yeah, the RB position is killing Robinsoon, he is the most talented player in this draft, i still thinks the staff values him less than the top 4 QBs but what if the bears and cards want too much? Carolina still needs to have a top 9 board if they cant trade up. If its 4 QBs and 3 defensive players and Meyers and their #1 WR they still have to have a target for #9 in case they cant trade back and I feel like that is what this report is telling us, that Bijon and Tyree Wilson is the floor.

Agreed about the value. 

Last year, I loved Breece Hall. Guys like that and later can be found for way cheaper. I think if we draft our QB, we bring back Foreman. If we sign Carr, I don't think we can.

A RBBC with ??? + Chuba + Blackshear will be outstanding with this coaching staff. I also think they will know how to use Laviska in the backfield in that Cordarelle Patterson swiss army way.

I wouldn't mind him (or JSN) at 9 if the QBs are gone. If here were in this draft with Barkley, CMC, Fournette, Zeke, and (Even if I think he's the most talented of the ones I listed) Gurley, he'd still get drafted ahead of all of them. He's a TE at HB and for an offense that needs playmakers, you could do worse.

Question is how much the whole "nnnnnngh no HBs in the first" type of guy you are.

I would genuinely be upset to take him in the first round. We literally just rectified the previous mistake doing that so going back to that well seems so obviously foolish.

What makes you think he is a TE?

Great blocker, very very good receiver.

Watch him block. Voch Lombadi put it best:[In terms of where he positions himself] "He's up there with the guards."

Plus it sounds a lil sexier than saying "He's a FB with the ability of Marshawn Lynch."

    • I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes I to account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as a treading water year. I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. 
    • What happened to King? Was he a no show?
    • think these smaller Qb's are going to have a much harder time convincing an NFL team to draft them. not saying a smaller Qb under 6 feet tall will not make an NFL roster .it will most likely be a UDFA contract more or less prove it deal.NFL teams have been burnt time & time again investing in these small NFL Qbs & i think  teams are now finally starting to realize that investing in these smaller Qb's under 6 feet tall is simply a bad idea  ...just saying
