Have the Panthers played this well?

To answer the question though, I love how we've played this. We have put ourselves in a position to get a franchise QB at the worst. The rest is just smoke and mirrors depending upon what/who we can live with. I mean, if you pick up a franchise QB AND a extra pick, how can you get mad about that?

That's what I think, although I would imagine that if we are sure that we can get something for nothing and still get our guy that we might do it. 

It would take at least 3 teams to want the same player, along with carolina would have to trust each team involved as well.

There is point where the offer trumps your board too....

I go back the bears trading form 3rd to 2nd. 49ers got them to believe another team had a real fair offer to trade up for Mitch trubisky. 49ers had zero interest in a QB by many reports and bears figured Mitch was their "guy". So they sent 3rds and 5ths in order to draft Mitchy....

Between raiders, colts, zona, texans, and even with pass ties to seahawks. Each of those teams is have plenty to turn this draft into one giant mind fug.

Don't know if it happens, but if it does I could see it happening on Draft Day rather than before.

If Stroud is the next Herbert no one will think we lost this trade in a year.  Let’s just hope he is.  That’s who I want. If it’s Young I hope he can be like Murray without the maturity issues. Hoping for the best and supporting either of those two at this point.

If we land Downs in the second to pair with stroud that we won the draft with 2 picks.  Everything else is gravy. 

Love Downs but I honestly think I'd rather have one of the top TE prospects at #39. I'm just concerned about his durability at the NFL level. He did t miss many games at UNC but it seemed like he was always dealing with some type of lingering limiting injury.

I'd be upset if they traded down beyond 2. I don't think the Texans feel the need to trade up and would be happy with either QB.

Only other team that makes sense is the Colts. Even if they offer a first rounder it's not worth it imo. You go from picking the #1 QB to potentially the #4 QB and you look like an absolute dumb fug if any of those QBs picked ahead of you ball and yours fails.

Has any team in NFL history traded up to #1 just to trade out of it? If it has happened it wasn't recently.

I think it’s all just smoke and mirrors in the offchance we can hustle the Texans into thinking that not only are we good with either of the top two guys but also might take the guy they want. Don’t see it happening but crazier poo has happened.

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
