It makes perfect sense. The Panthers top 3 picks from the last 2 drafts are QB's. 2 of them are completely useless & a waste of a high draft pick/roster spot.

Armanti Edwards played QB in middle school, high school, & college. Drafting him & putting WR beside his name doesn't magically make him a WR.

Sure it does.....just Joshua Cribbs, Elderman, etc are NOT QBs.

:confused:

Armanti Edwards

Jimmy Clausen

Cam Newton

Armanti Edwards was a QB that they drafted to play WR NOT QB, i dont care if he was a college and high school QB, he was drafted to play WR. Remember Matt Jones???? people didnt say he's a QB when he was drafted because it was made clear he was drafted to play WR.

As for Jimmy Clausen, you must've forgot the read the key word that was TRADE. the Jaguars TRADED what ended up being Ryan Kerrigan (real good pass rusher) and Jarvis Jenkins (got hurt, but has potential) for Blaine Gabbert, the panthers gave up nothing for Clausen, they sat back, waited and took Clausen, gave up on him in one year and then had the top pick, did their homework and took Newton, this is NOT the same as Jacksonville and Gabbert. Clausen was a 2nd round pick, Gabbert was a 1st round pick that they traded up for.

It does when he can't see over the entire offensive line. It also doesn't make sense because we didn't spend a top 10 pick on Jimmy Clausen or trade up for him. We also didn't trade up for Newton.

Therefore picking QB's in consecutive drafts at picks 1 overall and 48 overall are nowhere near comparable to taking a qb 10th overall and 7th or higher overall.

Thank you! that's the point i was trying to make. while yes, it hurt drafting Clausen and it was a bad 2nd round pick (one that i didnt think would be bad) it is NOT the same as trading up from pick 17 to 10 and getting a QB then quitting on him in a year and trading up again (which to get RG3, they would have to do).

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Nope, that’s not the disconnect. In 2022, our GM knew he was going QB in the 2023 draft. You are talking about risking fans involvement on a team that’s been basically bottom 3 in the NFL from 2018 to now. There is no risk when you are that bad. We were right to want Fitterer to tank in 2022 and get rid of anyone who could bring us big value and extra cap room for future years when we aren’t winning 2-7 wins a year. We knew we wanted a rookie QB so we didn’t trade assets for picks and get a better draft slot so we ended up only getting a 2nd for Burns and threw in DJ Moore plus an early 2nd instead of a 1st, which basically lost us an early 2nd. The “risk” to our franchise’s losing culture ended up being around 4 1sts of total value. Yep, I refuse to listen to the other perspective that lost us around 4 1sts of value. At least our fan involvement is so high that our stadium isn’t chock full of visiting fans since we’ve won so much since 2022. Again, you won’t change my mind that we should have tanked in 2022 and had another 2-4 Browns/Horns on this team.

      It was the Colts that pulled theirs. Colts did Minecraft video without getting Microsoft’s permission (Chargers did get their permission). The questionable content was having the coast guard stop tyreek hill.
