A trade down and walking away with Penning and Howell/Corral would be a success to me.

This is the way...

I just don't want a QB. Take Neal and I'm happy.

For this draft to be a home run, though, the Panthers are going to have to get the best available player while still addressing their top needs. For that to happen, someone must reach within the first five picks.

 

This is about as untrue as a post could be.

Charles Cross is a perfectly fine draft pick and requires absolutely 0 reaching by the top 5

1) take the best LT at #6

2) trade back a few spots and take the best LT and use the next pick for a QB

3) trade back and go BPA with all picks

4) go BPA with #6

 

If the only thing we do right in this draft is not trading away 2023 picks it will be a successful draft.

Personally I'm onboard with 2) trade back a few spots and take the best LT and use the next pick for a QB

same here. would prefer Corral and coming out with him and Penning would be winning, imo.

Carolina Panthers’ Dream Scenarios In The 2022 NFL Draft | Charlotte Observer - Jonathan M. Alexander

 

The Panthers are going to have to get the best available player while still addressing their top needs. For that to happen, someone must reach within the first five picks. Here is how that happens:

 

And though, it’d be impossible to get a Day 2 pick if they remain at No. 6, addressing one of their biggest needs while getting the best available player is the best thing for them.

 

If the Giants decided to take an offensive tackle with the fifth pick, the Panthers have got to consider trading back. At the same time, they’ve got to find a team willing to trade up for one of these quarterbacks.

 

Carolina could trade with Seattle or Pittsburgh. A trade with Seattle could net them a third-round pick. And they could get Cross with the ninth pick, if he’s still on the board. Cross, again, addresses the Panthers’ biggest need. Mississippi State ran a pass heavy, air-raid offense. So Cross knows how to pass block. Or maybe they fall in love with Willis and take him with the ninth pick.

 

Meanwhile, a trade with Pittsburgh to move back 14 spots, will likely net them the Steelers’ 52nd pick in the second round this year and potentially a first- or second-round pick next year, too.

 

If the Panthers get a 2023 first-round pick, they could use that, along with their own 2023 pick to move ahead in the draft again and get one of the top quarterbacks in what’s considered a much deeper quarterback class in 2023.

 

They could also try their luck at perhaps former Cincinnati quarterback Desmond Ridder, who is projected to go late in the first round or early in the second round.

 

Or maybe Northern Iowa left tackle Trevor Penning is still there, and the Panthers grab Strong in the second round. Pick: QB Desmond Ridder or LT Trevor Penning (Pick No. 20), Pittsburgh’s 52nd overall pick, Pittsburgh’s 2023 first round pick.

Haven't spent a ton of time looking at scenarios but doesn't it seem like if we somehow influence NYG to keep their #5 that our 6 pick becomes the slot people want to trade into?

If they have an idea to trade #5 but think we might swoop in and get their guy  at #6 one slot before them.... I wish Gettleman was still in NY because playing watching tlay t would be fun.

That's my dream scenario.

What’s keeping us from turning in two names on one card at #6? Get Icky and Willis and other GM’s will hate that they never thought of this before.
