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

WR or OL. It’s absolutely not going to be a QB lol

we got Gamecock fans advocating for a dude that went 0-2 vs the ACC this year....and finished the season looking like a bad Bryce Young in the NFL.   All Spencer Rattler would do is sit behind Bryce Young.    We definitely don't need to waste the 33rd pick in the draft on that.  A good GM should be able to draft legit offensive skill talent there.

O-line.  Anyone saying qb, get it out of your head, young will start next year, after that maybe, but he's still what tepper views as the building block.  Receiver would also be good.  Also, everyone keeps saying the draft is deep at certain positions, but always remember, it requires actually HITTING on those picks.  We took cade mays and deonte brown late because OGs are supposed to be had late in drafts...well we whiffed and were still at square 1.  It only helps if we hit on the picks and I have no confidence in that.

Can't go another season w/ BY as the only viable option... if you don't want to hurt his ego/tiny brain by playing a vet in Ginger man and benching him, then you need to bring in a rookie to compete and possibly earn the QB1 position. Kinda like the opposite route of what we did w/ Clausen and Cam.

Weak class bro.  We wait and wait and wait and wait and when we decide we can't wait anymore, we  draft a guy in a bad draft class for that position out of desperation.  It's the Panther way.

Yep. La Porta went 2 picks before the Rams 2nd and 5 picks before Mingo. Kincaid was the top TE and he only went 9 before La Porta. Trading up should have been done for a TE this past draft instead of reaching on DJ Johnson.

We went Mingo in a not as good WR class because we traded away Moore. Fitterer has been just like Hurney 2.0. Don’t take BPA or draft deep positions to get better overall draft value. Instead, draft to weakness and reach for needs with trade ups to make sure you get the least draft value you can.

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
