Rivera: Panthers looking at more than QBs

[Jackofalltrades]

Gee, ya think?

[Mother Grabber]

I have one player in mind, and his name is Dareus.

Yes, please.

[Ricky Spanish]

how has no one said it yet?

smock scream

[countryboi]

we have been going at this so long i dont really care who we draft.....its all good

[SOJA]

I think it will come down to trading down, Newton, Gabbert, Dareus, or Peterson. If Hurney and Rivera believe in them I believe in them

[jasonluckydog]

Is smokescreen no longer an acceptable response?

[mav1234]

Gee, ya think?

...yeah well considering the length of a thread that challenges this very idea, I thought it was worth posting.

Covering bases.

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Man I legit love Rivera already. Still so damn pumped about that coaching hire.

:thumbsup:

"Smokescreen" implies that a decision is already made. I don't believe it is, not this early.

And I wouldn't thoroughly discount what he says here. Rivera isn't John Fox.

If he were just throwing QB names out for the heck of it, why not mention Jake Locker?

Whether we like it or not, I think they're genuinely looking at Mallett.

I also feel the same way...And if you think about it he will fit that Charger offense that Rivera and Chud will put together also. With Mallett and that Offense can you say points and Big plays. I think the answer they are looking for is witch QB will fit the team better. Will it be Cam because he got a big arm and can make plays with his feet. Will it be gabbert because he has good accuracy or Mallett because he has an Big arm but pretty accurate.

If they can trade back and pick up the QB they will be find. But if we can pick up a DT like Dareus if we trade down and stay in the top 5. Im willing to trade back in the first to try get a QB witch ever one that falls at least in the teens.

[Catalyst]

Yes, please.

We will take a QB. I'm as certain of that as I've been of anything with this franchise since '03.

I do like Dareus, though. If we go defense, has to be him. Please stay away from Fairley.

[JawnyBlaze]

Amen to that.
