If you were GM, how would you use our that first pick in round 2?

Im still a pure BPA purist. 

 

There are soooooooo many holes on the team. About the only spot I feel is "ok" with the starters is safety. Worst roster in the league, I feel the gap to cards/giants/pats is pretty large as well. 90% of the panthers best talents are up for contracts/5th yr etc. Just a giant mess.....I fully understand the fitterererer hate, even with rhule at full power...

FYI it feels Tepper gave the orders to fix the IOL. Fitterere is bringing in old OGs that have not played for yrs. 

Even with christ and colbert, watch lots of resources used on improving IOL. Its one of the last ways to disprove "young isnt that bad...."

No one player will get this right. It's time for roster building & mining for overlooked & undervalued talent. Increase the talent of competition at every level.

Do not fall in love with any player. Trade down to accumulate 15 picks. Draft BPA at every position. Then aim to have a strong udfa class. Everyone can be replaced including Burns & Young.

Hoping we land Kris Jenkins to compete. You know he'll be prepared for the NFL with his dad and uncle while playing under Harbaugh.

wide receiver is the only answer. our receiving corp needs a jolt or 2 of speed. not just  straight line speed either. fast twitch, ankle breaking, route running, take the top off the defense receiver. then do it again with either 3 or 4. interior OL is the other pick. 

why in the world would anyone want to drop another rookie QB in this mess is beyond me.

I would Go BPA between OL, TE, or WR without question. Every penny in cap I had available would be spent on the top available FA WR’s. You have to give Bryce every opportunity to succeed next year to properly evaluate him to see if he’s the future or not. 

I see things pretty much the way you do. Those 3 positions need to be our top priority. But, do you really think a top FA is going to want to join the worst organization in NFL?

If I was in my prime and had the power to choose my fate, you couldn’t pay me enough to join the current day Carolina Panthers. I know this sounds bad, but I’d be giddy if we found a legit #2 to complement Theilan in the slot and took our chances on speed receiver in round 2. Unfortunately, I have no faith in Scott F. To pick the right guy after the round 2 selections of TMJ and Mingo.

Fitterer has been just like Hurney 2.0. 

Marty was flat out better. Marty always had good things to hang his hat on.   Marty flat out drafted some dominant players.  

Not even close if you look and compare Marty 3 years into the role here.    Marty was dare I say….good….in that early window overall.

      XL about to turn the corner

      He’s set financially for life barring complete fiscal lunacy. He has $12.3 million guaranteed. Think about that. Twelve million three hundred thousand dollars, he’ll be 28 years old when his contract is up and he’s completely forgotten about if he never plays another down in the NFL if he so chooses. Say after taxes he ‘only’ brings home $6M (fire your accountant territory) and parks $4M in a run of the mill mutual fund… good God… What I’m getting at, IF homie ain’t feeling the NFL, he has 12,300,000 reasons to take the fewest NFL edition ass kickings as possible while waiting out his very wealthy non-football future.  Obviously completely talking out of my a$$ with this… but if you hated contact, didn’t want to live with a completely wrecked body for the rest of your life and you know you’re set financially… what path would you take, assuming you’re cool with being a quitter (not calling him a quitter, I’m just playing out a scenario)? Why do so many first rounders bust? Where was he before his one year wonder if he was such a stud?  Everybody likes the dude on a personal level. How could you not? …. but I like seeing a winning product even more. He doesn’t play like his head is in the game. The Why is where the speculation lies and helps to clarify if his issues are ‘fixable’ or not.

      Very likely that he needs another season or two to really find his groove.  It very well may not be here where he has his best season. He’s a physical standout, but he can’t seem to get his focus and mentality right. That non-catch where he didn’t get his second foot in bounds was a truly awful display of this. Every professional in this game makes that catch.  Last week, it was clear that he wasn’t playing in top gear.  Like so many young people these days, he wants success without working hard.  He wants maximum reward for minimum effort. He wants to rest on talent. But talent alone won’t cut it.  The foolishness of youth and inexperience.  He can have it all if he wants it.  Seems like he’s content to be a social media star and a forgettable football player.
