We passed on Fields, so would anyone be completely stunned if we passed on the 2023 QBs? Especially if we drop too far down the draft and can't reach CJ and Young. We may very well not even draft a QB and roll with Corral and some new vet. Not what I want, but we have dangerously winnable games against NFCS teams on the schedule.

Hype is what destroys a class.  I think some front offices get caught up in the hype as well.   You here these talking heads going round and round about how great this or that QB is, and owners buying into it and gets the GM to select him.  IMO. if you do your homework, you'll find the right QB, regardless, of draft position. 

I have my opinions about Stroud, Young and the rest of the class.  But to be honest, I'm not an expert and hopefully Fitterer does his homework and if we select a QB I'll be onboard with whoever we choose.

Corral, IMO, was a Fitterer choice.  Obviously, it wasn't Rhule who chose him and he definitely wasn't going to groom him.  The biggest decision Fitterer has to make is, are any of these QBs in this class leaps and bounds better than Corral.  I know the haters are already itching to reply that he sucks.   I take them with a grain of salt because they have no idea one way or the other.  I am sure that they'll consider it greatly when a player we really need is on the board at our pick.  His injury, from what I have heard, was a freak accident caused by a terrible offensive line made up of a bunch of players trying to keep their dream alive.  Our beloved Corral haters will say "he looked horrible in preseason".  Fitterer knows the situation and will make the right call.

Just be prepared for a meltdown if we go in a different direction than QB.  It will be epic. 

I calculate an extreme meltdown this draft because there really isn't anybody head and shoulders above Corral.

His performance and combined stats compare favorably.

Maye is the real deal. He looked great when Longo had to actually start trying to score. Don't let a Shula level OC fool you.

Not sold on Maye yet at all.  He hasn’t handled blitzes well and he has good not great athleticism.  He has talent but supporting cast is amazingly important with any QB

He has been extremely average when he should be dominating

He looked like a different QB starting on the 4th quarter when we had to score and Longo started calling plays reflecting that. Odd.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      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.
