CB is a big one and some depth on OL. Trading up for DJ Johnson just keeps looking dumber and more wasteful. Fitterer’s trade up privileges need to be revoked for a few years while this team rebuilds their draft capital.

Barely any quality college production with little experience at DE, he’s a 25yo rookie, and he punched a freaking fan last year so he’s a bit of a hot head. I thought Reich said they were going to pick smart high character guys and not only did they ignore that here they actually traded up to do it. If this guy isn’t a complete bust I’ll be pretty surprised.

This was a head scratcher but ok hope they see something I don’t. Guy has the size and athleticism but limited experience even at the position.

Best game of the playoffs so far bar none. I’m hoping it goes to OT just for the sake of the game

Canes stole this game. Love it. Big momentum shifting win. Now hope that NJ/NYR series goes to 7 and get some rest because they need it. Looked tired most of the game.

They will score a meaningless goal late in the 3rd for feelings

They look out of gas. Unless they make a 180 and find some offense this team is gonna get beat in 7

Is this your first Panthers draft coverage? I’m surprised the pick even got air time

Tepper with the smokescreen haha. Good move getting a WR not good for Shi Smith

Yes I am concerned about that too but that’s also something that a good coaching staff can work to fix by scheming receivers open and designing an offense that fits his skill set. Under the previous coaching staff I would have laughed at that being possible with Bryce but I think they have the coaches in place to potentially minimize his weaknesses with scheme.

Aside from his height and size, Bryce has literally everything you want out of a QB draft prospect. Richardson is literally the exact opposite. Bryce was the right choice.

I'll comment on this in 3 years but I am at least encouraged that he realized what a terrible hire Matt Rhule was, made a 180 and hired the most experienced coaching staff ever assembled, and went big to finally address the QB position in the draft. After a half decade of what seemed like perpetual bad luck and a foot on the Panthers throats keeping them down in the dumps, maybe finally some sunshine is cracking through the clouds.

No reason to take a TE with Hurst on the team. They have a huge need at LB and DE. Keion White is screaming at them to take him. He could rotate from OLB to 3-4 DE and seems like the kind of player Evero could get the most out of.

Levis is a decent QB to take a dice roll on in the 2nd round if you have a starter for 2023 already lined up. Raiders make sense. Someone will move up in the 2nd and take a gamble on him. In the 1st round you want to take a guaranteed starter and Levis is definitely not that.

Keion White

Yes and I hope we draft him. Immediately puts Gross Mayos out of a job.

I bet they stand pat at 39 and pick this guy https://www.nfl.com/prospects/keion-white/32005748-4931-5646-3479-7fead8c7f5a8

If you look at Bijan next to Bryce there's just no way Bryce is 204

Who cares. Corral might have gone undrafted in this draft class. I wanted to give him a shot but when a coaching staff with two former long time NFL QBs on it and a guy who coached Peyton Manning for a long time don't want you, maybe take a hint.

After that it’s gonna have to be. Bijan is going to be straight fire.

God damn it this was the last place I wanted Bijan to go

He looks like the coolest dude in the draft for sure

Cardinals trading up big

Corral was a clear Matt Rhule pick and it's unfortunate he didn't get a shot when he had a staff that wanted him. But the truth is Corral played in a super simple one read offense at Ole Miss and was the 4th QB selected in a historically bad QB class. I believe the reports that Frank Reich doesn't want him and they are willing to trade him for whatever value they can get. We might be a year away from a second QB to see how Bryce does but I don't think any of us would be excited if Dalton has to play any extended period of time this season. Which is why I wouldn't be opposed to drafting a second QB.

Literally this. The coaching staff has no interest in keeping Corral. Eason is probably going to be QB3 if they don’t draft someone, and honestly they might just roll with Bryce and Dalton on the active roster. Everyone thought the Redskins were nuts drafting Kirk Cousins after they went up to draft RGIII. Well Cousins is still in the NFL 11 years later and RGIII is a color commentator. Even if Bryce turns out to be a pro bowl QB out the gate I wouldn’t fault this staff for shooting their shot on another QB. As we’ve seen since Cam left, being in QB purgatory sucks. Never miss an opportunity to draft a quality QB prospect. Everything on the roster is secondary after you have your QB.
