Alright Panther fans. Here is the draft order breakdown.  Things have become relatively clear in regards to our draft pick.  We could move up as high as 3rd, or drop as low as 15th based on what happens over the course of the next 2 weeks. Allow me to explain:

The highest the Panthers can move in the draft is currently 3rd.  This would only happen if we lose our next 2 games and the Bengals win 2 of their last 3 games.  This would put the Bengals at 4-11-1 and the Panthers at 4-12.   

We can not catch either the Jaguars or the Jets, as the best they can finish is 3-13 and the worst we can finish is 4-12. 

There are currently 12 teams with 4, 5, or 6 wins. One of those 12 teams is going to win the NFCE and remove themselves from the picture. The other 11 teams will by competing for the 4th-15th picks in the draft.  Currently, we are the best of that group and if the season ended today, we would be sitting at pick #4.  

However, one win could drop us about 8 spots to pick 12, and 2 wins could drop us to 15th, given all the other teams fighting for draft position lose their respective games.

Assuming things stay where they are, how many calls will the Bengals have for Teams to jump a head of us and grab a QB?...

Bengals play the Steelers (tonight), then Texans (possible win), then Ravens.  Currently the Ravens are on the playoff bubble, so it is unlikely that they will roll over.

My guess is, the Bengals finish the season 3-12-1 and maintain the 3rd pick.

This is great, thank you

Are you sure about our current position? I thought Atlanta moved ahead of us based on strength of schedule. Are you inferring that if both Carolina and Atlanta lose their last two games that we would win the tie breaker with Atlanta?

This is correct as of right now.  Our SOS can change, but currently ours is lower (.531) than theirs (.536) keeping us at 4 and the Falcons at 5.

I don't think they move off of that pick with Sewell sitting there. He's exactly what they need for Burrow and is the best non-QB in the draft. No brainer for them to just draft him and not even think twice about it. Whatever extra picks they could get trading down wouldn't be worth it to miss out on getting him.

      Team Cap Space: $35,099,731 (per OTC)

      By panthers55 · Posted

      Other than being the offseason and there isn't much to talk about, why does anyone worry about the cap? We can do whatever we want and still have cap space. You don't think the front office hasn't already figured it out and what they intend to do. Me I am just sitting back and watching. After all my job isn't on the line if we lose. Although at my age we don't have forever if I am going to live to see us play in another superbowl

      I get the TD's and I pointed it out, but like I said, when Burrow had more than double the TD's than Geno had, I think Higgins increased TDs compared to DK was more a product of Burrow and the Bengals offense than because of him vs DK as WRs. When one of their QB's finished 4th in MVP voting despite missing the playoffs and the other was just traded for a late 3rd round pick and replaced by Sam Darnold, I think that's a tough narrative to brush aside to just look at raw stats as well. Again, swap DK and Higgins last year, do you honestly believe DK wouldn't have put up better stats than Higgins did? Contracts and trade compensation aside, I'm taking DK over Higgins 100 out of 100 times, there is no debate about it for me.

      More TDs last year in less games (double the TDs) and more yards per game. Those are some tough stats to brush aside. Career stats are good but we are wanting the player for what they are currently. DK had some drop issues too.
