True but I think people heard at a discount and ran with it. 6 teams in the top 10 are wanting to trade back. I think we mentioned ours could be had at a discount to get some conversations started. We should still get decent value despite the top 10 sucking outside of a couple players. 

Look at the draft. The talent in the 2nd and mid 1st are not that different than at 8. The biggest difference is who has been talked about endlessly to fill the void since so few of the guys in that second teir worked out enough to allow any seperation that were at the top of that teir. I just don't think the traditional trade value holds up when the talent just isn't there at thr top of the 1st. It's even worse top 5. The 8th pick is probably holds the value of a pick in the 20s in other drafts but still has to pay a fixed cost so most if not all the players in the top 10 will be overpayed for thr talent level recieved which is usually reserved for taking shots on a QB.

It's a really weird draft and really unimpressive from a value standpoint in the early first. And they still have to pull off a trade or spend time justifying a flawed pick in the top 10 if stuck with it. I think that part hit close to home for everyone Panther related more than losing a little value on a pick with meh options in comparison to other years.

Agreed. It’s a weird draft. Not a great one for top 10 picks…

      Looking Way Ahead, But.

      I didn't say I thought throwing it was a bad decision, I said I thought not running those 3-5 yard routes to pick up the 1st down wasn't a great call.  Yes the play worked out, but I didn't love the play call, it's like when a bad shooter is taking a 3 and you're yelling "no no no" as they're going up and then they make it so it worked out. That's still gambling on them to make the play and I take no issue with that. But I just went and watched the play again, we had T-Mac and XL running downfield crossing routes, Coker went in motion behind the LOS and then moved up a yard or two after the snap but not even past the LOS, Sanders chipped the DE and then ran a drag route right long the LOS. The play worked out, but I don't really like that particular play call and route tree with the game on the line on a 4th and 2.  If you want to send one route downfield as an option that's fine, but there were only 2 realistic target options with that route tree and they were both 15-20 yards downfield.

      Chuba is a better back than Rico.

      If BY comes back, they 100% need to bring in legit competition.    Heres what as you are alluding too. This team can either sign Icky&Mays or BY, I do not see both without cuts/trades/etc. My vote is for Icky&Mays, draft a QB....

      JB shouldn’t even be a thought IMO.  Bonus if he ever matters for us.
