There isn’t going to be a phenom prospect available at 6. If there is one in the next draft chances are we won’t be picking first (especially if we draft LT and solidify our OL) so we would have to trade a lot of picks to get him. Only use one first round pick at 6 and take a chance on one that has potential to be great but needs some work. This is how Allen worked out for the Bills, Mahomes for the Chiefs, Lamar for the Ravens etc…

Maybe. But I’m not in football and neither are you. Do you not see the point of this thread?  We do we’ll playoffs. We don’t Rhule is fired. Win win!!

Yea but you get the same thing bringing back Cam and taking BPA at #6. If Cam is truly done like most on this board believes he is, then we get a high draft pick without much commitment to Cam beyond this season. If Cam does well then we have our QB for the next 2-3 seasons and we are a playoff team. Taking one of these Qbs at 6 this year, sucking and taking another QB in the next draft with a new coach while being stuck with the one we took at 6 would be such an awful situation. We likely would pass on a QB next year if that's the case while being stuck with a new HC and still an unknown situation at QB.

If we take a QB at 6 this year I feel like Tepper will give Rhule yet another mulligan while he continues to "build" this team. No way we are a playoff team with a rookie qb at pick #6.

Just in general, way WAY WAY WAYmore clip board holders in the other group. The one outside the top 10.

QB with a high pick is a big risk; like only 20% actually work out. After that? Those chances rapidly decrease to infinitesimal.

Over the last 25 years, first round QB's have "hit" at a rate of about 50%.  For all other rounds combined, the number is about 10%.  Those are the numbers.

I kinda don’t understand what you guys want. “Not first round Qbs”. Ok, we’ll roll with Darnold? Complaining and moaning. Trade for Baker or Jimmy (my least favorite option) - complaining and moaning. We’re in a position to be picky about our options. Damn near 29/32 teams have better qb on their roster than we do. Trust their eyes and what they see, more than the blind “not first round qbs” junk.

Because people are stupid. Esp the people here.  Coach potatoes would rather roll with junk.  DAs all over the place.

I’m personally going in with optimism with any situation. We dodged the biggest bullet in my eyes, Watson, so even if we absolutely suck with Darnold again, the picking should be ripe for a qb. If the team finds one of these guys fit, let’s roll with em and be excited.

      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.
