The Panthers are not going to know what other teams boards look like. They will not chance missing out on who they want just to let the Bears profit from using them.  The Panthers have contingencies in place for scenarios just like this. 

One of those being Jimmy G, if I'm thinking right.

IF the Panthers lose out on a top 3 pick, I can see them signing Jimmy G, then entertaining their own trade down scenario in hopes of maybe picking up a first rounder for the QB derby next year.

Something interesting i have read is that Stroud and Watson have the same agent and the texans might not be interested in dealing with him again after the watson fiasco. Young could be there first choice and be influential in them trading up.

That's the problem we worried about other teams.

 

Just trade those picks and get your QB. Whatever it takes to get to #1 do it.

 

If the guy we draft is a bust so be it. By that time we will have control of our 1st round pick again.

In all likelihood Jimmy G is signed next week after FA starts.

He will sign with someone if he's asking for less than Daniel Jones received. I'm still trying to figure out how the Panthers make it work and fill out the rest of their shopping list. I seriously doubt Jimmy G would want to play for the Panthers unless they overpay him.

If we like three quarterbacks as much as has been discussed, is that really leftovers?

If we like three QBs then it's blind luck whether we pick one that succeeds.

How often do multiple QBs from the same Draft go on to have stellar careers?

I'm simply not ok with trading up, the juice isn't worth the squeeze, but if they do they'd better be going after THEIR guy with conviction - not just putting themselves in striking range of multiple guys they like.

      What do you grade this draft?

      By Newtcase · Posted

      I didn’t like this draft at all. XL, our first pick had one good season out of five and doesn’t have burst off the line.  I wanted Ladd here because I think he’d have been a much better pairing for BY9s weak arm.  We need to be an excellent west coast style offense if Bryce is gonna shine.  A burner that takes 3 steps to get moving and doesn’t separate at the line is a bad choice IMO. I don’t even want to talk about drafting a RB after having Foreman make us feel better about trading CMC only to send him packing and give Sanders top FA money last year to fall on his face.  We always try to get cute and find value.  The fact that we were the first team to take a RB (one recovering from a serious injury no less) tells you we didn’t get the memo 31 other teams got.  RB has a huge role in protection responsibility, it’s a huge reason some great backs are situational…they suck in protection.  A rookie RB helping protect BY doesn’t warm my heart.  We should have taken the top C on the board here IMO. LB and yet another project TE that’ll probably just frustrate us all for how long he hangs around seemingly doing nothing.  Then a bunch of dice rolls that aren’t changing any fortune unless it’s a complete accident. TLDR This whole draft looks like JAGs to me at best.  I don’t like the XL or JB picks at all.  Always happy to be wrong when I have a negative take.
