Here again, Trubisky went 2, one year starter, never underestimate how much teams will reach for a QB.

As a Panthers fan I hope you are right, I'm just a realist though.

 

 

Hindsight is 20/20 and obviously Trubisky was a massive bust but before the draft he was widely regarded as the best QB in the draft. Not really comparable.

Not to make us feel worse about draft slots, but Philly losing makes us #7. We could easily be #10 after our bye.

We really can’t win another game if we want any shot at a Wilson or Fields. I don’t see Lance going that early but with our SOS and so many 4 or less loss teams, we don’t really have any margin.

I think we could conceivably beat the Broncos, but I'm not ready to guarantee that.

Recent weeks have led me to believe Washington will be a lot harder matchup than we thought they'd be.

I'm not confident that the Saints will be resting starters.

And the Packers game? That brings up visions of the Hindenburg disaster (or the WKRP turkey drop). Oh, the humanity!

Losing out is a real possibility. Gun to my head, I think we go one 1-3 but who knows?

I wouldn’t be surprised if we took offensive tackles back to back in rounds 1 & 2.

Mayfield in round 2

Top three is set: 

NYJ- Lawrence 

Jags- Fields/Wilson

Cincy- Sewell 

If we can somehow make it to pick 4 we would be GOLDEN

Assuming nobody trades out.

I can't imagine the Jets or the Bengals trading out. Jacksonville? Don't know. If a good enough offer were made, perhaps.

I think we should start warming up to the idea of Trey Lance and be excited if we do try and trade up for one of the top 3. 

[Mr. Scot]

And for those who love Draft Day drama, imagine if a team without a quarterback need traded into the number two spot and took Sewell ahead of the Bengals...

Most of the people I've seen talk about Trey Lance are cooling down rather than warming up.

Yep, hence why I'm expecting him the 4th or 5th QB taken and more in our range barring a trade-up

[davos]

I guess the question..Trask v. Lance or do we go for BPA at that point?

If that is true then it is based on absolutely nothing.  Now I can see Wilson going above him just for the simple exposure factor but if someone at this point in the game is thinking Lance isnt going to be good they are just giving hot takes.

I'd probably go BPA, to be honest.

I know some people say you've got to get the quarterback, but I see a lot of folks questioning whether either of those guys are truly franchise quarterbacks.

A guy I was eyeing last year seems to have regressed with only Bateman and no Tyler Johnson.  That being Tanner Morgan.  Pretty disappointment in his year.  Same with Costello.  Mond looks straight up bad, will need a position change. 

After these guys we're talking about, we're looking to the mid rounds--Dusty Crum could be a riser and then we just load up on the line in the top rounds.  Mobility and a CANNON.

Lance is a straight up toss-up.  I won't act like I've really seen his game but his youtube vids look super promising.  He seems to have all the tools and was the undisputed #3 until the Trask & Wilson machines took CFB by storm this season.
