It’s pick 8, nobody is trying to trade up and you’re forced to make a pick. 

The board has fallen like this:

#1- Cam Ward

#2- Travis Hunter

#3- Abdul Carter

#4- Will Campbell

#5- Ashton Jeanty 

#6- Mason Graham 

#7- Armand Membou

Who do you draft and why?

Membou, then Ez and then I don't care because I won't belive in them until they prove something anyways. So in this case it's EZ and mark off edge from the need list.

There is a huge chance I will be making fun of whoever they take if they stay at 8. Just like their first 2 picks from last year.

Jalon Walker. I'd go Mike Green if not for the off-field issues.

Exactly Mike Green would be an amazing pick if he didn’t have all the off the field issues. Dude is a true pass rusher, gonna put up 10+ sacks yearly in his prime.

I probably take Jalon Walker but not before putting a lot of thought into Tyler Warren and Tet McMillan...

Exactly, I feel like 8 is one of the hardest picks in the draft. There’s no clear cut BPA, rather an abundance of similarly talented players at different positions.

Just got a trust your scouting. When it's all said and done there will end up being a lot of variance on the field in the NFL between all these similarly graded prospects.

The scary part for Panthers fans is our recent history of abject scouting failures.

Trade: 

Indy wants Warren and they fear a few teams before them.  So I found a trade calculator and did this:

So I get 14, 45, 80.  for 8, 111, 114, and 163. 

Panthers move back to 14, have 2 second rounders (45, 57), and two third rounders (74, 80)-five picks on days 1 and 2.

Yeah very well said, I think the reports coming out that we’re looking to trade back reflects some internal conflict on who we should draft. Call me crazy but I don’t think Jalon is a lock at 8, I think they have a multitude of guys with near identical grades.

I like it, what positions would you be targeting between the first two rounds?

Honestly, probably so. I could see Walker being the prospect with the most support but far from the consensus.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
