Young will be the pick. He has the personality, drive, and attitude to be the best in the league although he would say he just wants to be the best version of himself. He was a psych major and had great teachers and mentors along the way. I am not as worried as I was about injuries when he said he was always smaller than everyone else and just takes that as a given. So he knows how to avoid contact and not take full body assaults. He really seems special. I honestly have changed my mind and readily see what the coaches see in Young. I like everyone will be rooting for good health.

Very unsure of this draft, unlike most others here. Awaiting for the other shoe to drop as Tepper has made or influenced a bone-head decision at least once or twice every off-season, IMO. Is Young the one or will there be another with lesser impact? Could Stroud be the pick despite being favored by at least one of the draft "experts", who has a record of picking busts dating back for years. IMO, 2nd has to be edge or CB with the rest of draft being balanced between O & D. Just don't think it is too wise to draft 6-7 players on one side, ala Rhule, or 3 picks at one position, ala G-Man.

Young #1

Picking up a WR, EDGE, and LB for sure. I could see another DL.

Expecting a trade down from #39 and for one of the last two picks to be involved in a second move on day 3.

Honestly, no idea. This will be the first draft w/o Rhule so I'm interested in seeing how much influence Fitterer had last season as well as what type of players he covets. There's also trying to find out who Reich, Brown, and Evero prefer as well for what they run. I'm excited to see how that plays out.

I think we trade down and take Richardson.   He has all the tools that can't be coached that young and Stroud will never have.   

If they take AR it will be 1st overall.  I doubt they can convince Huston to trade up for Young or Stroud and going down any further risks missing out all together.  Unless they decide to go with Levis.  But I think Levis is going higher than most think. Fans do not like him but quite a few teams do. I expect some trading up if a couple of guys drop out of the top 5. It's going to be a wild draft.

 Here at No. 1, I could see the Panthers debating whether to take Ohio State's C.J. Stroud because his pocket passing could be a positive to Frank Reich,  given his work with Matt Ryan, Carson Wentz and Philip Rivers in Indianapolis , but Alabama's Bryce Young is probably the favorite of ownership and the front office.

Some team people say they think the Panthers wants Young, although others think the franchise wants Stroud.

Right now, I am leaning toward Young. The only knock on him (5-10, 204) is his size, but he was durable overall in his two years as a starter in the SEC.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
