In a deep qb class should the panther take one day 3?

The goal should always be developing talent and improving the roster. If there's a QB that we think could develop into a solid backup or potential starter, we need to be looking at him. Every player is 1 hit from their career being over. It's foolish to just assume that Bryce, CJ or AR don't fall into that category just because they're young.

Eh, maaaaybe but it currently this doesn't look like a stellar mid/back of the draft class.

Austin Reed and, if I squint, Kurtis Rourke are the only ones that fit the bill. Smaller school, good numbers early and throughout  career. Neither are some super duper 24 pushing 25 year old guy either. Reeds my guy this cycle for finding the overlooked QB.

 

I was ok with Milton, but unless somehow he morphs way more than tyrod or Allen, he's a switch to another position guy. I'm off his bandwagon completely now 

Don't see tuga being the next Purdy. Pratt is a long shot. I know he's the sleeper of the class for some. But the senior bowl wasn't the breakout he and the draftniks expected.

No, they should not unless they have one at the top of their board, and they should only have one there after they've addresses all of the holes in the team's talent and depth. Even Hekker got a scary hit to the knee, and he was the team's best player this year.

If Bryce plays again like he did this year, throwing in a 5th round QB in week 13 or 14 "to see what he has" does nothing for the team but set up the back-up QB off-season competition between he and Bryce after the #1 pick in '25. 

The odds are greater for Day 3 picks to make impact elsewhere on the field. Picking your future backup should not be a draft priority.

as bad as this roster is currently, nearly every pick should be BPA. If that ends up being a qb in a later round, so be it. but if bryce shits the bed next season, we should be picking early in '25 and grabbing a high, 1st round qb

i'd rather see the draft capital spent filling other holes this year

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
