Takes Neal at 6 then we trade next years draft to move up for Pickett.

Marty, is that you?

I would bet even money we will not know until sometime draft day.

Fitterer is the king of trading a quarter for three nickels. 

Rhule isn't focused on a five-year, or even a two-year plan, so he's not gonna do what's best for the team moving forward. He's drafting to save his ass and buy himself a year.

Will the Panthers ...

A) Keep all current draft picks, no trades

B) End up with more or fewer 2022 draft picks

My main concern is that we come of the draft still in possession of our 2023 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round picks.

They WANT to do B.  They have the cap space to get a QB and LT in FA and are trying to do just that. 

1)JimmyG's cost is dropping, 9ers may have to release
2) Duane Brown, Nate Solder, Eric Fisher and Riley Reiff are all potential LT targets

If they do both and we can find a trade partner who doesn't offer negative points, we're trading down.

It cost next years 1 but…

Better bet...

Which draft pick will Fit trade first? 1st Round? 4th Round? Next year's 2nd? 

Next years 1 and 2 seem pretty safe IMO. There isn't anything in this draft or in the trade market worth dealing them for ... unless Lamar or Kyler become available.

I'd wager that they take the top LT if ONLY one falls to #6. If multiple (or none) are there then you trade back with the team that A) gives you a good package of picks AND B) keeps you in rage of your next tier of 1st round OL/QB.

How do we have a 2nd round pick to trade in that scenario?  Our original is gone in the darnold trade.

We traded down with Atlanta

More picks. 

Trade w Seattle. Land Penning, Howell/Ridder, and a stud lineman like Salyer or Sean Rhyan

Thanks.  I'm blind.  It's right there in the screenshot. 

I would be happy with Neal at 6.  If we got him and traded down, that would be pretty amazing.

Agree…obviously this feels highly unlikely but we can dream

There's gonna be trades. I can't see us sitting on our hands as 101 picks get made before we're back on the clock again.

If had to make a bet I don't think we ultimately make the selection at #6 overall. We'll trade down for more picks.

Rhule is the big wild card. He's gonna be pounding the table for Pickett. Tepper is either gonna have to be willing to tell him to pound sand or the crew is gonna have to convince him he's not worth the #6 overall pick.
