I don't think we're picking at 39...

[Bear Hands]

From Fit himself:

• We are already making calls
• There is a group ahead of 39 we like and may (already) be targeting (Addison? Flowers?)
• Also can go back 4, 5, or 6 spots and recoup some capital

Interesting.  Good interview:

I think it's more likely we move up from 39 than is being talked about. If a guy (specifically, an edge rusher) we have a first round grade on gets into the late 20s, I think we make it happen.

Been saying it all off-season, 39 is s perfect spot to trade back.  The gap is too long between 39 and 93

i'd be shocked if we don't trade out of every spot we've got except for #1.

i'm fully expecting Fitt's phone to be in play most of the next few days wheeling and dealing.

Fitt seems like such a cool guy. His transparency on some of this stuff is really refreshing.

Fitt out there wheeling and dealin

while the criticism has been the 1st round is pretty thin, i think the talent from 2-4 is pretty solid. not tons of starters maybe, but lots of really good role players.

I've been saying for a while that I can't see a wheeler and dealer like Fitts quietly sitting on his hands from #39 all the way to #94.  It's just not his nature. He's gonna get antsy. I think he gets back into some day 3 action too. I don't think he's going to let his draft end before day 3 even gets going good.

Can't wait! What an exciting time for Panthers fans.

Bryce presser, wheeling and dealing to fill roster to compete for the division title year 1.

Certainly makes the draft more interesting from a pure entertainment perspective. You feel like we could potentially be on the clock at any given moment.

It sounds like we could have some specific targets in the 55-70ish range. 

If he can wheel and deal and get some type of Turner/Brents CB, Scott/Mims WR, Miller RB combo, I’d be beyond thrilled

Also low key feeling we really like Addison in a trade up

In Fitt we trust!!! There is no doubt in my mind but what he will be doing some wheeling and dealing.
