Im old enough to remember when Panther fans insisted we should’ve drafted AR or Levis… all three are equally terrible.

Ar was always a great athlete terrible qb exactly thr same player he was in college and him sitting out plays bc he is tired is completly his college experience

The trade package to get either would have been far less than BY one. If you look at most early QBs picked in the top eight or so, the bust rate feels like its around 85%, which you should never trade up for QB if that's the case. 

I mean burrow, stroud, and maybe Daniels are about the only hits in what 8 years? 10x the amount of busts and its grows each year.

Back during that Draft I was pretty anti AR (it was also when I posted daily and butted heads with a lot of people). I remember I actually posted that if AR wasn't a bust ... I'd delete my account here lol!!!!

Levis was a second round pick, so he wouldn't have required any trade package, unless we move up in the second to get him.

Don't hold me to this, but I think Levi's was the 33rd pick and panthers originally had like the 39th pick(used on mingo). So they would have to moved up to 33rd and the cost could have been just a 4th+_____(sense it was the first pick that round). I think titans traded up from like 35 to draft Levi's as well, but I have not checked my statements. Plus brother my once rock solid NFL mind is not working so well, forgive me if Im wrong about some of those numbers and such.

I’m holding you to it!

 

Looks like you are right though so we’re good…

I am saying we could have used the first round pick on him, the one we originally had before we made the trade with the Bears.  Not a great move, but certainly better than all we gave up to get Bryce.  

For that matter, we could have taken Hendon Hooker with the second round pick.  Other than CJ Stroud, he is the only one that hasn't looked terrible (because he hasn't actually played).  We would still have been better off.

Yeah I think I agree. Even standing pat and taking a bust with the 9th pick is far preferable to what happened. 

Much less damaging. Exponentially.

Have you looked at the 1st round QBs drafted over the last 10-15 years? It’s horrific 

The rookie wage scale began in 2011.  By my math that was about 13 years ago.

I insisted the choice should have been between Stroud and AR with Bryce not in the running. 

Stroud for the safe pick, AR for the huge boom or bust guy. 

Everyone with half a brain knew Bryce was not built for the NFL.
