In my mind the way things have gone down so far seems to be putting us in prime position to draft a stud LT to protect whoever our future QB is going to be for the next decade. I’m more than fine with that. 
 

There will be more QBs in next years draft. I don’t want to watch Teddy for another year, but I didn’t expect us to be in the playoffs this year anyway. Get me a LT and keep filling the remaining roster holes. Get the QB of the future next year.

The team f*cking sucks from top to bottom. Even with a good QB this team might be .500. Not enough elite talent to compete with the good teams. I’m down for them to trade down in the first and accumulate picks. Build the roster up. Draft a rookie QB in the later rounds and maybe it works out Russell Wilson style. If not, draft a QB next season.

The more holes we fill the more it will cost to eventually get our QB because of our draft position.

Qbs are not suddenly going to be cheaper next draft.

Where was Big Ben drafted? 11th pick. Where was Russel Wilson drafted? Third round. Where was Drew Brees drafted? Second round. Where was Aaron Rodgers drafted? 24th pick. Where was Lamar Jackson drafted? 32nd pick. Where was Josh Allen drafted? The 7th pick. Where was Pat Mahomes drafted? The 10th pick. Where was Tom Brady drafted? The 6th round. 
 

Should I keep going? You guys keep claiming we have to give up ludicrous draft capital if we ever want to get a QB. I’m tell you that you are wrong. I brought evidence to support my argument. I can provide more if needed.

We could still do that.. Darnold price isn't our 1st round pick..

I told every single person here as soon as Bridgewater was signed we would be sitting here rationalizing awful ideas like this in phase 2 of QB purgatory

 

next it'll be the mid round developmental guy who "really has some upside, Russell Wilson etc etc"

Depending what it would cost, I'd be all for trading for Darnold and drafting a LT at 8.

But I'm not sure I'd give up even our second rounder this year, maybe 3rd this year or 2nd next year and add in like a future pick in the 5-7 round range, I'd do that.

Darnold had terrible coaches and no supporting cast, give him CMC, DJ, Robby, and a good staff, he could be very successful.

No to the big D until after the draft and off the trash heap. If that's the answer it better not cost draft capital or more than a meaningful year contract length. He could get us a #1 to #3 pick o  2022 so it wouldn't be all bad.

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
