Don't think that the Panthers haven't been pouring time and money into every potential QB since about week 5 of last year. They absolutely have a favorite and were willing to trade up for him. Everything coming is all about confirming their guy or pivoting.

I seriously believe they say around and said, "we could take this guy, or this guy, maybe that guy if we do some more research on him".

That's reasonable, and reports have said that's exactly what they're doing.

The notion that they have to be settled on only one guy rather than two or three to do this has no basis in fact.

There is no way David Tepper sitting at that table listening to that doesn’t go ballistic.  A plan doesn’t include “we will think on it”.  IMO they probably already know who they are picking.  Outside of some crazy off the field development they are going to pick that player.  This group of coaches are very level headed unlike prior regimes.

If you're smart, it does.

Our own people have stated numerous times that talking to the players is extremely important to what they do. That's why the pro days and visits and such are so valuable.

Ask yourself which is better: knowing the pick soon or getting the pick right?

They have until Draft Day to debate this if they do desire. And as long as they get it right, where's the problem if it takes till then to do so?

Honestly we will never get this information but this pick is Young or Stroud and I personally think it is Young.

I was Young first, then ok with Stroud after the Georgia game...but hearing the other day that Young would call two plays in the huddle and then pick one as part of his pre-snap read when he saw what the D was doing sews it up for me. Take Bryce. He had an NFL coach from the Belichick tree as his OC, and he surely has much more awareness and smarts to avoid hits than we have worries about him getting injured. 

A tell-tale sign of his views about himself is his insurance policy. If it's for an obscene number, then we know that he believes the NFL is high-risk. But if it's a typical policy, then we know he isn't worried and neither should we.

I could still change though if it's proven that Stroud has done the same.

We might.

The full backstory of the discussions behind the Newton pick came out not that long after it occurred.

Teams generally don't care if you know when they were bluffing once the poker game is over.

Nick Saban was plugging his guy, I get that, but his comments about what is between Young’s ears as being something special was telling to me.  He talked about processing quickly and making everyone else better.  I like that.  He said he did that as good as anyone he has been around

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
