I just can't get behind this thought again. I know it has worked for Otah and the verdict is still out on Brown, but we need to stop this trend if we ever want a first rounder someday in the actually draft. I hear a lot of people saying we might get an early 2nd rounder or a package for it, but it just bothers me that we keep our first round pick. How many would be in favor of trading next year's first rounder?

I could declare for the 2011 draft and get selected in the first three rounds. Someone will gamble that they'll be getting a top 10 pick next year and we'll be able to get a late first or early second with another late-rounder, say a fourth or fifth. In a very, very deep draft class.

fug it why not? I'd love to land 2 second round picks this year. If we could take care of both WR and DE/DT in the 2nd round we will be in good shape and that leaves us to go BPA the rest of the way. I honestly wouldn't mind. We will probably end up trading a player next year anyways to get in the 1st round range.

With a pending lockout on the horizon, it may be harder to find a trading partner. What team wants to sign 2 1st round picks only to have them sit on their arse because there is no training camp, preseason and perhaps a lot of the regular season?

What I like about the new setup is that there's a day between the first and second rounds. If Tate is still there after Thursday, we have all day to negotiate a trade, rather than being rushed into making one like with Brown and Otah.

We COULD come out with more value this time around than we have before. But like others have said, the 2011 draft is going to be a crapshoot in more ways than one. I still think we'll be able to trade our first and get whoever we're locked on to.

Considering the fact that the new rookie pay structure may be common ground the players/owners agree upon, we should look to keeping that next year's 1st.

If there is a work stoppage btw, how are the seniors handled for 2011. Never really put a whole lot of thought in it.

golden tate in the second rd? we'd be stupid not to trade to get him

takes two to tango, and who's really wanting to accept 2011/future draft picks when the future is still up in the air for next year and this being a deep draft

I'll be disappointed if we don't.

but what you've got to remember, is the market for a 1st rounder won't be as big as it was last year. everyone knows this draft class is unusually deep because of the uncertainty of 2011's lockout/rookie cap/etc. they may not even be able to trade for a 2nd rounder.

Only way I see it happening is if a team with multiple 2nd rounders(see: Patriots) is down to trade.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      Well, the whole rationale used  for the high IQ point guard is it would allow us to spend our resources elsewhere….instead it’s all our first rounders ever since to support the bad pick.  Reality is our front office is just bad.  If you wanted Bryce Young you were going to need to do something unique and special for him.  Instead we just insert a QB with traditional tools into old NFL concepts that pair with traditional talent and our pass game is whack

      Good to see some other folks are speaking the same language on this. It's simple common sense. But it seems like there's a disconnect due to the misplaced value the team has put on Thielen because he was the only vaguely good veteran WR willing to sign with the Panthers after we traded away DJ Moore. That time has come and gone. We have two first round WR's on the roster now.

      Yeah I’m turning this into a Bryce can’t play QB thread. Just stating that offense was a poo show two years ago. No QB is succeeding in that, much less a rookie. I feel like it’s become a common debate strategy on here to just jump down the rabbit hole of saying he is just bad in so many ways when any certain point gets countered. If that doesn’t work we can deflect to how poorly this team has been ran. In regards to the actual point we are debating, the OL was struggling, half of the skill players aren’t on a roster, Mingo has done nothing with his new team and the staff are either not coaching or on their 3rd team in 3 years, aside from McCown (I liked McCown too). Honestly about as bad as it gets. No need to try to state how good of an offense it was billed it because that has been proven false at this point.
