Second round Panther chatter on NFL Network

[Turnip]

OL please. Don't give a damn about a QB until round 4 or so. We have so many pressing needs it's not even funny.

[Shocker]

WTF is Metcalf doing on the board?  Damn.

I still think a 3rd and a 4th round pick would be worth trading to nab another one of these top tier guys in round 2.

If you only want a project for the future, that's okay.

If you want a guy that has any potential whatsoever to be a backup this year though, that's waiting too long.

Let's be real, most teams grab a Fitzpatrick type guy if poo goes downhill fast with an injury. If Cam goes down we're pretty hosed regardless of if we have any of the remaining QB's. Not a great class, Lock is "meh" against good competition and Grier is a project regardless of the round you take him. Let's build to help Cam succeed; if his time comes at least we've built a foundation for a different QB to succeed. Our OL needs to become at least "okay".

You have to wonder if these guys have inside info and simply refrain from making direct statements.  I just heard Baldinger (I think) say, "The Panthers are going to move up for someone they want...Let's just say it is for someone who uses his hands for a living."

I think we are going to draft a blacksmith.    Seriously?  OL makes more sense than WR.

Panthers moving up to grab someone high in the 2nd round? 

I mean what could go wrong? We might find our next Jimmy or Everette.

I'm not advocating for this....

but if you want to use a 2nd round pick on a QB? Best bang for your buck is to try to trade it to Arizona for the top 10 pick in the last draft.  Rosen.

Need someone mobile. Scrambling is a prerequisite for this team.

If we could get Rosen for one of our 3rds I would do it in a hearbeat. Now that AZ has their guy and 1st round has passed they don't have nearly as much leverage. I think someone will end up giving them a 2nd for him however.

actually, we did not move up for JC--he tried, reportedly.  That was his "excuse" for splurging in the next round and trading up for Armanti Edwards.  Either way---your point is made.

We have a coach and GM who don't have absolute job security. If they take that approach, they're gambling their jobs.

[Captain Morgan]

if the rumor that we tried to trade back into the first for OT is true, then we should certainly be looking to trade up in the 2nd (which is much cheaper).

Because he's like the Venus de Milo: great body no hands.
