JSN won't be around for our round 2 pick.  Besides, I am not sold on the top wr prospects, but i am sold on the depth of this class. Projections are all over the place but someone has to fall to round 3 and that could be Josh Downs, Jalin Hyatt or Rashee Rice. I've seen those guys a lot higher than round 3, but i've seen projections that have those 3 in round 3 as well.

Hear me out, in all these cases the QB is drafted a year before the WR. This year we grab Stroud and imagine if we somehow landed Marvin Harrison Jr next year, absolute pipe dream but fug that would be scary.

this. Marvin Harrison, Jr. is the goal...esp. if Stroud is our guy.

Fitt would have to work some serious magic to make that happen, but i got faith he can do it.

There's no farm left to trade I'm afraid.

Not just that, you’d need a team so deep at WR they wouldn’t draft MHjr in that draft slot and be willing to move back significantly. 
It’s not even worth dreaming about.

Something tells me AR is the other guy they are looking at.

 

I wouldn't be shocked if AR is indeed the pick.

I'm honestly somewhere around 50% Young, 35% Stroud, 15% Richardson in terms of draft chances. That's strictly what I think is likely to happen in terms of reading the fig leaves.

I hope the decision is already made. I hope it was made before we mortgaged our future on this trade.

People are getting way ahead of themselves assuming Stroud will be the pick. He might be. But I think it's far from a certainty. I'm not even sure if I'd consider him the favorite. Coaching comments keep leading me to Bryce Young.

where's that cauliflower gif when you need it?

Only realistic way I see that happening is if a bad team trades us their 1 next year for our 2 this year.  Or we trade some player for a next year’s 1st at some point in the season. Only candidate I could see for that is Burns and I doubt that happens. 

If only we had the first round pick of an aging team with an oft injured, past his prime, QB, and that is currently in full rebuild and unloading assets…for the next 2 years would be even better…

What’s making you lean Young? I would be ok with the pick, just curious as to what you are seeing/reading that makes you think that?

Even if Stroud is the pick, the way some people are talking and hyping him up, he'll never live up to what they're imagining/dreaming. Stroud and Young were great college QBs, but nobody has any idea how they'll do in the NFL.

I'm at the point I'd like to see the Panthers take Richardson or Levis at 1 just to watch this place meltdown. Of course, Ahlers at 1 is the true pipedream to watching this place explode.

i would flip Young and Stroud. Probably just me, but i think Stroud ends up being the more impressive overall candidate. 

And i'm with you in hoping the decision was already made. I feel like it's one of those things they know but they want to be sure of first. I think they believe that either Stroud or Young or even Richardson (to a lesser degree) would be worth the first overall, but i think someone impressed them enough to want to just go ahead and jump in. They saw/learned enough at the combine to say "we can NOT miss out on this guy."

That's what I'm hoping for.

      Mike Kaye predicting we trade up in 2nd round

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.

      Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
