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.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
