Trade down is the best option period.

Trade out of #1, take Defense later in Round 1. Pick up a 2nd this year and a first next year.

NO QB in this draft is going to turn this franchise around in 2 years. So have two picks next year to use when the QB crop should be better to get a guy to develop for a year. If you do that Rivera will have had two drafts and two free agent offseasons (hopefully) to make the TEAM better for when the kid steps in.

We need a Veteran via trade or signing to hold the reigns for 2 years at the QB position in the mean time.

Trade down!

Even if the next QB draft is better, I have yet to have anybody explain to me how we can guarantee that we get one of them. Does anybody really believe that whoever has the #1 pick next year is going to trade down and pass up on Andrew Luck, assuming that Luck even has and equal or better season? And even if they did, they would want massive compensation for him, so that is pretty much out of the question, unless it's us at #1 again.

Agreed, many people think if we don't solve our QB issues that we will undoubtedly be the worst team again and will be in line for Luck next year. As much as it pains most people to hear it, even if Clausen starts all 16 games next year, i do not believe that we will be in the bottom 5 in the league. Hell, just the coaching regime change in itself is good for another 3-4 wins in my opinion.

this reminds me of the time my buddy tried to give me a 12 pack of "quality" beer.

I asked why he wanted to get rid of approx 20 bucks worth of beer for free. He finally admitted it tastes like ass.

"Hey NFL, anybody want the shittiest #1 pick in years, real cheap!"

hahaha

If Cinci, Arizona, or Buffalo really want Newton/Gabbert, we could definitely nab an additional 2nd or 3rd rounder along with still getting either Dareus, Peterson, or Green. That would be the type of trade that makes the most sense imo

Here we go again.... :willy_nilly: ..... the mindset of passing on a QB who will take two years to develop for an unknown QB we can draft next season who will be ready either at the same time or later than a QB we could draft today who can also end up being better than this mysterious unknown QB the Panthers are supposedly going to be able to definately get next year :shocked:

I have an idea..... lets keep passing on 1st round QB talent, for position players that can help us so every year we can continue to keep saying... we will use our top pick on a QB next season. :willy_nilly: That all being said I am fine passing on a QB this year if its not Cam... of course unless Hurney, Rivera, etc really think Gabbert is a better option. (I just dont see that)

      A look at the team after the draft and udfa signings...

      By KillerKat · Posted

      My projection. I think at WR its time to go with youth. This means Moore should be the odd man out. Horn can return both punts and kicks and Tremayne is a better WR than Moore. XL gets one more year to prove himself, although I could see a trade in the future which would mean Moore could stay. For OL, I would like us to bring back Brady if we can. The RBs, Trevor can return both punts and kicks too. With the uncertainty of Brooks and Dillon, its hard to choose either one. I think the team would like for Brooks to have a breakout season to clear any uncertainty that he deserves a spot. For now, I have them both even and on the team. DL looks solid as well as OLB. Watch out for the UDFA of Aaron Hall and Isaiah Smith at OLB. They look promising and could knock someone off the team. ILB is still the biggest weakness on the team. We need to upgrade that any means necessary. CB is strong and Im praying to all the Gods that Wheatley beats out Scott at FS.  OFFENSE: WR: Tetairoa McMillan - *Chris Brazzell II* - Brycen Tremayne TE: Tommy Tremble - James Mitchell LT: #Rasheed Walker# - *Monroe Freeling* LG: Damien Lewis C- #Luke Fortner# - *Sam Hecht* RG: Robert Hunt - #Saahdiq Charles# RT: Taylor Moton - #Stone Forsythe# TE: Ja`Tavion Sanders - Mitchell Evans WR: Xavier Legette - Jalen Coker - Jimmy Horn Jr. QB: Bryce Young - #Kenny Pickett# RB: Chuba Hubbard - Trevor Etienne - #AJ Dillon# - Jonathon Brooks DEFENSE: LE: Tershawn Wharton - Bobby Brown III  NT: *Lee Hunter* - Cam Jackson RE: Derrick Brown - LaBryan Ray LOLB: Nic Scourton - Patrick Jones II  LILB: Trevin Wallace - Bam Martin-Scott - *Jackson Kuwatch* RILB: #Devin Lloyd# - Claudin Cherrelus  ROLB: #Jaelen Phillips# - Princely Umanmielen LCB: Jaycee Horn - Akayleb Evans RCB: Mike Jackson - *Will Lee III* - Chau Smith-Wade SS: Tre`von Moehrig - Lathan Ransom FS:  Nick Scott - *Zakee Wheatley* - Demani Richardson  SPECIAL TEAMS: K/KO: Ryan Fitzgerald P/H: Sam Martin KR: Trevor Etienne - Jimmy Horn Jr. PR: Trevor Etienne - Jimmy Horn Jr. LS: J.J.

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      His contract is guaranteed.  Legette is just not where he needs to be mentally.  Not fully invested, it seems.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      Literally like Hill. He's not QB1 material (now or ever), but if we can turn him into a H-back and use him like  Swiss army knife, that's his ticket to make the roster.  H-back/emergency QB.  I wonder how good his hands are?  If they are at least above average by NFL standards then we can line him up in the backfield, in the slot, split out wide and of course, in the Wildcat.
