Do you think the panthers will not budge with #1 pick?

I know JR said he wants a face to the franchise and will probably not trade #1 pick. So with all this talk of Harbaugh possibly going to SF and other teams wanting him (Luck) real bad. Do you think JR can withstand the pressure of every pick in the world being thrown at you, just so you can possibly draft your franchise QB and be set for 10+years?

I'd prob'ly stick with the bolded part for now..

I know they said that. But come draft day and with many teams wanting him and throwing picks at you like candy. I hoping they say no to everything. Maybe they will have Luck locked up contract wise before the draft?

If they're smart they'll negotiate a contract ahead of time. Even if we do lock up Luck before the draft we can still trade him though.

I think we keep the pick. We cannot dump that pick AND sign a coach from the same mold as the one he just fired and continue telling everyone that we're committed to winning IMO.

I can (and will continue to) justify going with a defensive coach as long as the coordinators are good and allowed to coordinate. I can justify a supposed lack of interest in Harbaugh (who wasn't coming here anyway apparently) because despite our fervor it's not in our FOs blood to hire a college coach.

I will not be able to turn the other cheek to dealing away the #1 pick if Luck declares or not being active in FA to address areas that could not be addressed in the draft. Not that my individual opinion matters but I think that would justify everyone in the national media who has thought badly of the franchise.

Depends what the 49ers offer. We'd be very stupid not to at least listen to their offer.

Hurney wouldn't consider or even hear out offers for DWill or Smitty this year. Probably will go the same route here, even if some team is lined up to offer us their 1st, 2nd and 3rd round picks for the next 5 years.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?

      I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
