NFL.com's Jason La Canfora reports that the Panthers are interested in Texas QB Colt McCoy.

"The team has enough interest to consider moving up into the second round on Friday," La Canfora writes. The Panthers are currently sitting at No. 48 overall, with 15 picks between them and the first selection in round two. McCoy seems unlikely to get by both the Browns and Bills in the top 42. Carolina, though, may have too many position needs to give up later-round picks. We'd say they could dangle a player to move up, but they have hardly any depth.

With all of the WR dropping to the 2nd I just don't think it's a good idea. Next year looks like a pretty good year for QBs...

Unless we can somehow pull off a Walker to Minnesota trade like Dallas did back in the day I hope it's just rumors.

The Panthers are interested in Texas QB Colt McCoy, according to a league source. The team has enough interest to consider moving up in the second-round on Friday.

The Panthers currently have the 16th pick in the second round (48th overall) and it would likely take some maneuvering to get ahead of teams such as the Browns, Raiders and Bills, who are still looking for quarterbacks.

The Panthers parted ways with long-time QB Jake Delhomme earlier this year. Matt Moore is currently at the top of the team’s depth chart.

You're right.

I wonder what people would say if we traded Marshall plus a later pick and keep the 48th but acquire another pick to get McCoy?

Then again, we gave up a first to move up in the 2nd last year, so I think it's really unlikely.

BTW, if anyone saw what Philly gave up to move up for Graham in the 1st... We got robbed the last two years...

First-round pick (No. 24):

» Third-round pick (No. 70):

» Third-round pick (No. 87)

To move up 11 spots in the first round.

Looking at what Denver gave up to grab The Golden Calf of Bristol isn't as bad as I thought.

They swapped fourth rounders moving down from 114 - 119 and gave up a 2nd and 3rd. Basically a 43rd and 70th for the 25th pick. Picked a bad player with the pick though.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
