Just pay the extra and go to 1. Show the world who our guy is that we identified and said would lead us going forward. Don’t stop at three and hope that 1 and 2 pass over our guy. Don’t go to the 3 just to settle for the third best. 

yep and the bears can easily move up if they want or they stay put and still get the best tackle in the draft

with this staff you move the fug up

This is my thinking. Give these guys the EXACT player they want. If you are Tepper, empower your GM to get the guys you just hired the exact player they want at the most important position in football.

Chose 9 because the option to trade down wasn't there. Would rather get Hooker or McKee in rd2 and get more picks. 

Completely agree. If we trade the farm for a guy turns out to be Trubisky or Zach Wilson, this franchise is on its heels for another 5+ years.

You stay put at 9 and see who falls. If the big 4 are gone, then try to trade down for the next QB the staff likes. We apparently like Hooker. By staying put we're not risking future draft capital, and we're ok if Hooker poops the bed. We can find another QB with the 2024 or 25' draft.

When you try to trade up you run head long into negotiations with teams that have a lot of offers, and they see you as QB desperate. Not good. And losing future 1st round picks for QB who might flop horribly is an extreme gamble. If he's bad the whole Panthers staff is in BIG trouble, and we have no 1st for 24' and possibly 25'. Hell no. Don't do that.

I think a negotiated price for #1 would look like: Pick 9, Pick 39, 2024 1st, 2024 3rd, 2025 1st, & maybe a player

If that's the case, I'd like to think Chicago wouldn't have an issue throwing us a mid rounder in return as well with Pick 1.  Ends up with...

2023: 7 picks total 1-1, 61 (2nd), 94 (3rd), (3)4ths (one from Chi) and (1)5th

2024: 6 picks total 2nd, 4th, (2)5ths, 6th, 7th

2025: All picks sans R1

And then who knows, by the time 2025 rolls around, maybe there's an opportunity where we've netted a first through a separate trade.  

This year could still end up with a group like:

1-Stroud QB, 2-Downs WR, 3-LaPorta TE (or something along those lines, get some defensive players with the later picks)

if you go to 3 might as well keep going, not much difference

An extra 1st.  Moving to #3 may just be this years and '24 first along with some other late picks. I'm not sure if you are aware, but just moving from number 3 to 1 is 800 points, or equivalent to the #21 pick....which happens to still be a first round value.

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best

      2024 College Football Thread

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
