Yes!!!  And the odds that we hit on 2 WRs in this draft are even smaller!   Since we added Johnson and have Thielen for another season, maybe we should draft 1 that is most likely to be successful at the next level.  Someone who gets away from press coverage and runs good routes that create separation.  Adding Johnson was HUGE.  Lombardi referenced a stat on McAfee's show that was focused on the success rate of first round WRs--I think it was 27%--the lowest.  That would suggest that second round WRs succeed about 15-20% of the time---making the Panther results not abnormal.

2023 - 3 WRs in round 2 last year.  2 of 3 were instant impact players.

Reed had 912 total yards and 10 TDs

Rice had 935 total yards and 7 TDs. 

Then of course, our pick. 

2022 - 7 WRs in round 2 

3 had 1000K+ seasons as rookies

1 had a 750K= season

1 had a worse season than Mingo did

So what would it take to move from 15 to 4 (Indianapolis trying to get Harrison)?  750 points after swapping first rounders this draft.   Without involving players, that trade would look like:

  • Arizona:  Pick 4
  • Indianapolis:  Picks 15, 46 and a 2025 first round selection.

If the top-4 stays put, I have a hard time seeing LAC staying put.

They become the team NYG and MIN are calling…could see NYG & LAC swapping to assure JJ in NY. The MIN is out of luck/ends up with Penix v Nix.

I don’t think the Giants are too high on JJM

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By strato · Posted

      We’re in a pickle. My best hope is we protect him and can run the ball vs most Ds and the WRs are healthy so he has every chance to not look like what he looked like in too many games last year.

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.
