So you guys wanted to draft a T at 7, which would've moved Little to guard anyway.

 

But are now mad that Little is moving to guard because we traded for an LT?

No. We're mad that we traded up to take a tackle in a weak tackle class that's being moved to guard, something we could have gotten with our 3rd rounder we traded away and gotten our future center at 47. 

Instead NO gets better and we look stupid, again.

Sooooo if we left Little at tackle, people would be mad we didn't do enough to protect Cam. You'd still be harping on about NO getting better because they took a player we didn't.

If we drafted a tackle, we'd be mad about sliding Little to guard, saying he's a waste of a pick. You'd still be harping on about NO getting better because they took a player we didn't.

But here we are, trading for a stop gap tackle and moving Little to guard. People are mad because we wasted a pick, even though there's a huge precedent of players moving to guard then playing tackle later. And you're still harping on about NO getting better because they took a player we didn't.

So he was well regarded as a HIGH SCHOOL PLAYER.

I’m sure that took all of the NFL talent evaluator’s breath away.

Kyle Allen was one of the nation's top high school QBs too.   A lot can happen between high school and the NFL.

Yeah, I'd still be harping on it and I will continue to do so. Little was not a day 1 pick. That was Hurney's grade on him. Picks that high are supposed to be able to start day 1. Little has looked like a late round OL. 

Trading up to get a tackle in a weak tackle class when you have glaring holes on the interior is monumentally stupid, especially when the draft is loaded with IOL. The entire 2019 draft was just another missed opportunity. 

At the end of the day we need to protect whoever is playing QB, but a big part of that comes with recognizing the strengths and weaknesses of the draft. Last year should have been IOL because it was a strong deep class. This year should be tackle because it's the best class in years.

I'm not pissed off about Little, I'm pissed off about the logic. When a message board is calling picks more accurately than your GM, there's an issue. 

I'd be happy to take a tackle in the first. Bechton looks like a beast, but there are others if not him.

2019 will end up the worst draft in Panthers history and Tepper is giving Hurney another shot at fuging us up even more.

jesus it really is 2009 and 2010 all over again. TANK IS ON BOYS BUT WE'LL TAKE TUA IN THE 2ND ROUND B/C HE FALLS.

Hurney isn't calling the shots anymore. No way this trade happens if he was, and we wouldn't be letting everyone walk in FA. Either Hurney has accepted he's Rhule's bitch or he's gonna join Ron after the draft.
