Next years third is not enough. This years third more likely

If he plays well this season, I would want to see how he performs with a new OC before giving out a big contract

This is how you end up with Little at LT

I believe they went after Darnold because they weren't impressed with Fields or Lance

If he gets a trade partner, it will be after the draft I believe

Every year a new type of QB wins the SB and we have to hear how you can only win with that type of QB in the modern NFL

Back to back winning seasons would be a nice place to start

Bad thing is we as panther fans had to sit and watch that poo happen to our team

The original comparison was Jake not sam, but you changed the narrative. Jake in his Superbowl losing year was a better QB than Manning in 2015, his legacy really doesnt matter on this situation

Might be right, might be the team ahead of us didnt want to trade out. I am more than happy sticking at 8 and double dipping O Linemen. I just think there are way more options available to us now

Without even looking, I can't even think of a consistent NFC team out side of that 3 year run by philly. Really a one and done Superbowl should make all of us Panthers fans extremely happy.

Exactly why I choose to be optimistic about it. No one really knows how this guy will play with decent weapons and coaching. Why not think he will be good, what's the harm in that as a fan.

Nope

Really there has only been 1 consistent SB winner the las 20 years. Not likely to happen again

2015

I am going to be optimistic here and think Gase is not just QB poison, but poison to the whole team. They really gave Darnold 0 chance to succeed.

We are not taking a QB at 8. It's over, stop with the dreaming. It's more likely we use 8 on the best LT or trade back if they can get a good haul. If a QB is sitting there they will easily get a 1st and 2nd, making losing next years 2nd an after thought.

He already used a draft pick to secure a QB this year.

So Sam is now THE QB of your Carolina Panthers. We all know the terms and no matter how we feel about it, it's time to get behind this guy and make sure he has every chance to succeed. I have been a huge fan of Parsons this whole offseason, but with this trade I feel we have to build the offensive line first and foremost. I would be happy if we went back to back OL. But, this pick may have a lot of potential for a trade back. Imagine the offers we get if Fields or Lance is sitting at 8. So where do we go in this draft now that we know who the starting QB is? Do we sit at 8 and pick Sewell or Slater? Do we go best reciever? Do we trade back and make this trade feel more palatable?

Shocking, I've never read anything optimistic from you.

On water or land?

He is not big enough to bull rush

Worse case we have a solid vet in rotation. I'm for it
