We still have six picks (for now)

Well, at least we still have six picks somehow. Here is the breakdown thanks to Ian Cummings of pro Football Network:

 

Round 1, Pick 1 overall (from CHI)

Round 2, Pick 39 overall

Round 3, Pick 93 overall (from SF)

Round 4, Pick 114 overall

Round 4, Pick 132 overall (from SF)

Round 5, Pick 147 overall

So, we have a few picks (and 22.7 mil of cap space according to Anthony Rizzuti)

My immediate reaction to the CMC trade was I hated it. After a couple days I got over the emotions and saw that it was just what was best for all parties involved. Now I see it as the catalyst that made this trade possible. We would be without #39 if we didn’t have 61, plus we have the other picks to use to move up from 39 if we want or pad out depth at LB, DL, or wherever we want if we don’t move up. Game changing trade.

We are set up very very very well. Our cap explodes next season and we have more than enough cap space to spend on free agency to make up for our lost first round pick. My head is about to explode with some of the dumb negative posters on this board who are absolutely clueless (about 4 in total). Amazing coaching staff, rookie franchise QB, solid defense, good O line, and a ton of money in the bank. Things are amazing since we moved on from Rhule, it’s a completely different franchise now. It is a VERY exciting time to be a Panthers fan. Enjoy the ride everyone

We don't have a 7th.

Their seventh-rounder went to Jacksonville as part of the Aug. 29, 2022, trade for wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr.

Six picks (all fifth round or higher) is pretty good though.

How hard is that?

Thanks. Of course it's too late to edit (which is why I kinda hate they put that restriction in place, but it's Igo's place).

I did some math for the heckuvit.  According to the overthecap.com chart, our original 7 picks would've been worth 5515 points.  The 6 we have now are worth 6450.

That means we go into this draft with the equivalent of our original 7 picks plus one late round 2nd.

If this means anything to you, you are a nerd.  (But at least you're not the one who did the math.)

BTW, everything I find says we have pick 145, not 147.

What's the reaction when finessererererer trades back from 39th to the late 50s, when two prime WRs are the board along with 2 prime edges??

 

 

Just guessing from past performances, one of the 4th's and the 5th will be traded. Maybe some combination  with the 3rd as well.  Fitt has proved what you think you have when the draft starts isn't necessarily where you end up.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
