The trade for Darnold was just to give us flexibility entering the draft. So no matter how the draft falls the Panthers are in a good position to either select BPA, trade down for more picks, or maybe even select a QB we believe can be our guy if he falls to #8. Also those picks we gave up was nothing. In the NFL if you do no believe you have a franchise QB and you are not actively looking for one then you are doing something wrong. The cardinals are good example of this.

Worked with Cam.

I know I’m reaching but if it’s the Pats I wouldn’t take any less than their 2022 and 2023 first round picks in the package.

I only want to do a trade with the Washington Football Team.

Yet we gave him no Oline and no WRs.....

Hated the Cam pick to death didn’t even watch the rest of the draft. I hope to be as wrong for all drafts.

I see where you are coming from and a couple years ago I would agree but not anymore. If you don't have a franchise QB and you aren't actively looking for one then you're doing something wrong. Just look at the Cardinals. Our incompetence started by paying Teddy and arguably not going after Herbert. The sour taste in my mouth has never left and it came way before signing Darnold.

Steve Smith Sr. has us taking Slater at #8.

Lawrence, Wilson, and Fields go in the top 3.

This 100%. This.

I get that some folks think this is just another Teddy 2.0 but I don’t know why people feel the need to be complete spoil sports and trash anyone who has a bit of optimism. Why not just go with the wait and see approach? This is the offseason. The only time of the year you can and should be as optimistic as possible.

This. 100% this!

I’m of the same opinion. There are some really talented Gus this year in positions of need and would really only be tempted to move back for a high price.

With all the whispers about the Panthers trading down I’m curious what you all would do in such a scenario if a top blue chip prospect like a Fields fell to 8 and a team like the Pats, Broncos, or some other team wanted to move up with the offer of their 1st round pick next year. Would you guys rather stay put and select or trade out and get another teams 1st next year?

I can see why he is a former Jets scout.

As long as we don't pass on a top QB we believe in(except Mac Jones)or another blue chip prospect im cool.

Only if it means an extra 1st next year

Panthers hardly gave much to acquire him in the first place so I don’t know why you feel they would be committed to building around Darnold anymore than Teddy this time last year. The trade for Darnold was purely to give us more flexibility heading in the draft. Whatever extra we get is just gravy.

If Fields is there go for it. Lance depends on how the rest of the board looks.

Mac Jones

Not only is this counting chickens before they hatch but also counting the eggs they are gonna lay too.

If you haven’t realized yet I’m sorry to inform you that the Panthers stadium was built on top of an Native American burial ground so no chance of that happening.

The best part about this trade is that I won’t have to see another mock draft with us drafting Mac Jones.
