Panthers more likely to trade down now?

Fitterer’s background has been more in college scouting. His input helps Seahawks GM John Schneider determine the team’s ratings of college draft prospects. That has helped Schneider have enough of a feel for the draft board to make several trades down, which has allowed the Seahawks to average more than 10 draft choices a year.

It seems Fitterer is a fan of trading down and accumulating pics. 10 draft choices a year. 

 

Pretty much the anti-Hurney.

I've always thought that pro athletes are so close in talent level that a scattershot approach can be better for a team like the Panthers that are extremely devoid of talent. A guy like Hurney could top off a really good team with some premium 1st round guys

If there isn't a QB that we are truly confident in at #8 then I have even said we should trade back a little and pick up an extra pick or two and start plugging these gaps we have on the OL and secondary.

It pains me to say it, but we may just have another year of Teddy Three Thumbs at QB....unless we get creative.

I believe Seattle has/had the highest number of undrafted free agents for many years. I think at one point they had like 22 UDFAs on the roster in season. Depending on the draft they view no diffenerce between late 5th and UDFAs. They also give "REAL" competition to players, money and draft place didnt matter. Only Pats and Seattle said and followed though with this, many others lie about this. Agents knew this and they preferred UDFAs signing with them.

I agree, I want Trey Lance but if the team doesn’t like him or any other QB at #8, trading down is the best option. It’s our most glaring need right now.  0-8 while having the ball with a chance to tie/win is just... not okay

    • I want to throw in how much easier it is for a QB to develop and improve with a good oline.  Huge credit to the front office for spending the money on our two guards.  Cade Mays also had a 2nd really good game starting at center.  Love how he has developed and hope he's the real deal. Look at what Stroud is dealing with now in Houston after injuries and problems with their oline.  Strouds accuracy has been greatly affected as it seems like he doesn't trust his protection. Canales is doing a great job developing Bryce.  I think the QB whisperer might be for real. And obviously big props to Bryce.  First round pick that looks horrible in his first year.  Different coaches and systems.  Fans and media are calling him the biggest bust in NFL history and he looked like it in the first two games this year.  Gets benched.  Young man keep his cool and just continued to work and only worry about what he can control.  I hope things continue like this and we end up with a great success story. Bryce Young kept pounding.
    • Outside of Philly (who currently is #3 in pass defense) the rest of our remaining opponents are bottom 1/3 of the League in that regard.  Let's see what Bryce can do versus bad pass Ds.
