I don’t believe for a moment this coaching staff can’t come to a conclusion about who they like the most. As a franchise we have settled too many times and it never works out. It’s time to be bold and go get our guy. 

I think it all depends on our confidence level in the evaluations and interviews of "our guy." If we're completely confident in his athletic and mental abilities, go get him. But don't be backpedaling if it goes wrong.

Pretty sure that guy's just a fan.

No one else is reporting this so I don't know that I'd take it seriously.

Never know who has a connect but you appear right, "Bears fan. Draft nerd. Teacher. Egg Nog Lover" per his Twitter lol

I think from a common sense perspective. After the Carr signing. We're trading up or staying put and crossing our fingers. I don't think we can afford to do the latter.

It is possible that the Panthers don't have clearcut favorite at QB.  Yeah, they'll rank them, but the perceived difference from one to two or two to three may be so slight that the cost of securing the #1 pick simply isn't justifiable.

I get the feeling that's the case.

After egg nog lover, I almost expected to see "braided belt enthusiast."

If that is the case, just get to 3 and save that 3rd 1st rd pick.

This feels like this last NBA draft... where everyone was saying its going to be either Chet Homlgren and Jabari Smith.... then BOOM .... its Paolo Banchero.

Thats what is goin to happen here.

I think this one's probably not reliable. At least with the Rodgers tweets it was coming from a reputable NFL Insider. This just looks like a guy with a twitter account.
