Watt is a game changer, he's an athletic freak and probably the best defensive player in the league right now.

 

Having said that, I will take Luke and I have a non homer reason as to why.

 

 

With Watt, if you have an average to above average defense on the field with him, there is only so much he can do playing from one side of the field.  Teams can game plan away from him.

 

With Luke, if you have an average to above average defense on the field with him, he's in the middle and can get all over everywhere (like he does) from rushing the passer, picking up screens, covering guys in the middle and just being an all-around badass. 

 

So what I'm saying is I'd rather have an elite MLB than an elite DE if I had to make that choice.

    • We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either, QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not.
