If Fields falls to 8 I'd take him. If not, I'd prefer to trade down like Rhule apparently wanted to do last year. Not a pundit but depending on how far they move down Darrisaw and Sam Cosmi could be there. I think the risk is worth it to move down in order to get more opportunities to fill holes in the roster. 

And a few players like Dyami Brown and Elijah Molden could fall due to slightly slower than expected 40 times and other players testing better. More chances to get good players. 

Agreed. If Fields is there, take him. If we aren't going QB and the phone is ringing, at least listen.

I'm a huge UNC fan but Brown scares me. Dude's hands are VERY hit or miss and while he's fast he's not Ginn fast. The hands are comparable though. The more wide open he is the more likely the drop.

Based on what I have heard. This year has been tough on any rumors though. QB first priority and don't believe the noise we don't like Fields/Lance.

Honestly believe when we traded for Darnold - it was a red flare that we announced the #8 pick is up for grabs.. There are a lot of other teams that want a QB and #8 is a perfect spot to grab any of them..

Those that were upset at what we gave up to get Sam (6th, 2nd & 4th) should be happy after we trade back and pick up two 2nds..

Essentially: 2nd + 4th + 6th = Sam Darnold + two 2nds
Golden..

I swear ppl complain about the oline play all thru out the season... then comes draft time and they talk themselves out of getting Olinemen...

Smh.. At this point it would literally be stupid and a total JEts move not to Atleast attempt to build a oline now and see what you have in Sam...

So far it’s looking like Lawrence, Wilson, Mac, Pitts?, Chase, Sewell, if Lions grab Slater who should we get?

I'll have a final mock draft coming in a few weeks but as of this moment I think 

Lawrence 
Wilson 
Mac 
Lance 
Chase/Pitts
Pitts/Sewell
Waddle/Fields/Smith 
Sewell/Slater

I don't think it is out of the realm of possibility. I'm just not sure they trade for Sam if that is the case. Draft an elite LT prospect, and build around Sam for better or for worse. 

I do wonder if they decided to trade for SD because they don't think any of the qb prospects they want will be there at 8.  But if a surprise happens, and one of them is available, they might still pull the trigger.  

IMO, qb is such a critical position, that it wouldn't bother me if we went into the season with two potential starters.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
