The variable that seems to be missing here is the head coach. You have to know the HC first and you can then make a calculated opinion on what they will do next. As it stands now, this is all speculation and hopeful/wishful thinking. 

 

Way I see it is, Corral is getting a shot if Fitterer stays. Next head coach will definitely keep him around if Fitt is around. IF Fitt is gone (not saying he will be), then Corral will probably never get a fair shot. Also Sam can be resigned for peanuts for sure. He's a back up at best and that's okay. 

 

Once the HC is installed, the rest of the staff needs to be filled. The systems that are here might not be here.. That also makes impact on the QB that will be here. 

 

Overall, I think the panthers need to get a QB regardless in the draft.

Pretty much.

Probably the OC too.

Better than Sam Darnold is? Is this real life?

His point is fair - Darnold is better than Zach Wilson and Trey Lance right now and possibly Fields.  I think his point is that you just don’t know where a QB will be in a few years.

This is likely accurate, however; there's a chance Sam changes that by playing well the rest of the year. There is such a derth of even decent QBs available this off-season, it may drive up Sam's price (if he plays well.)

Better than Darnold cannot become a new standard of QB acceptability.

Oh I agree, and it seemed to me that OP did also.  Question is - will any of those guys be better than him?  No one really knows, but you always gotta roll the dice imo

      [The Athletic] Dane Brugler's 2025 7-round Mock Draft

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I have been on the Bech bandwagon since well before the SR Bowl.  Hoping that he would stay a hidden gem and we'd be smart enough to grab him late.  I just don't think Morgan cares as much about WR as we do

      General Draft Rumors/Speculation Thread

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is how this draft could get mind-blowingly complicated--Interesting comment about Jags floating the Jeanty idea to lure Chicago into a trade.  I have to think Ben Johnson is going to duplicate in many ways the success he had in Detroit, and I have to think their free agency was following the blueprint Carolina designed last year (one that the Saints designed before them with Brees) and they upgraded all of their interior linemen.  RT in Chicago is set; Johnson loves RT Darnell Wright.  However, at LT, Braxton Jones is coming off a December injury and is considered to be in a competition for the position this year by at least a few fans on the Bears Wire.  His PFF score, however, was solid, posting an 80+ score in pass protection and 70+ score in run blocking.  He is in his prime.  However, in some of their fan mocks, the Bears are taking a LT.  I thought they needed an Edge to play 4-3 strong side across from Sweat, but they signed Odeyingbo to a pretty big contract in March. For the Bears, in my view, it comes down to TE or Running Back. Kmet is their #1 TE and he had 474 yards in that role, which was 25th in the NFL last season for TEs.  Adding Warren would help upgrade the TE spot and give them the ability to add around an estimated 80 yards of production per game.  The Bears have D'Andre Swift at RB, but could use a RB to pair with him for a desired 2 RB attack.  So if I am Da Bears, I stay at 10 and take Warren.  If the Jags want to move on from Etienne, then they will take Jeanty. I think, if I were the Jags (with 10 picks this year) I would take Mason Graham and not try to get an 11th pick.  It is a need position, and it seems to me the only reason they are toying with the idea of moving on from Etienne is because Jeanty is on the board.  That, to me, would be a luxury pick. New GM, I think he does not get cute--they take Graham if they stay at 5.  I might say the Jags' biggest need is Corner.  #5 is too rich for Will Johnson, but remember, they have 10 picks.  could they move up with Cleveland and take Hunter, giving them a CB and WR threat?  To me, with the draft capital they have, that is the move they should make.  Cleveland then could move back to #5.  Remember, Nick Chubb is an aging (29) free agent coming off an injury--so he is gone.  With an additional second rounder, the Browns move back and take Jeanty to give Flacco a running game. The Jags pick is very interesting, but I would not be surprised to see them move up.
