Well, you can chock it up to Person speculating, but it makes sense to me considering Anthony Richardson's 2022 season. He had a nice Combine, but are all these football minds going to give the Underwear Olympics so much importance that they'd draft AR based on that and media-driven hype? I wouldn't think so.

 

"My sense is the Panthers — like a lot of other teams — like Richardson’s raw talent, but not enough to draft him high. But if Richardson’s record-setting performance Saturday changed the way other teams view the 6-4, 244-pound athlete, it could bump one of the other guys down a spot."

 

I wonder what the "buzz" about our interest in trading to three actually was and from where did it originate? 

 

"Still, as Fitterer said, if you’re sold on one of the quarterbacks, you have to go up and get him, which means trading away a couple of future first-round picks. There was buzz in Indy the Panthers are interested in swapping spots with Arizona at 3, which would guarantee they’d get one of the top three QBs."

 

Trading to three doesn't make sense to me unless we're happy with three of the top draft prospects at quaterback. Could be, but I doubt it. Maybe we know something as to what Houston is going to do, or perhaps it's just the lying season. Who knows?

Trading to 3 makes sense to me for the right price - by Draft Value we could get to #3 only giving up our 2nd RD pick this year and next (#39 pick only).  We would still have the late 2nd this year and keep all our 1st in the future.  If that lands us Stroud, Young, or Levis I think it is worth it.

Plus if we did feel the need to jump to #1 it should really only take an additional 1st rounder next year to do it, which overall means we gave up one 1RD and two 2RD's to get to the first spot....that isn't horrible.

The more I think about it the more I think we have to get to 1. Sounds like we are locked in on Stroud. You can’t risk Houston grabbing him at 2 if that’s your guy. 
 

Come on down, CJ 

If we move to one CJ has to be the guy IMO.  Lowest floor with a high ceiling too.

My money is on it being Levis right now. It think they try to trade with the Cardinals if possible and let someone else get Young and Stroud.  Just a feeling I have based on nothing but my itching left testicle.

I’m not going to fret about it but it’s such a big freaking risk. They better nail it or we’re poo for another 3-4 years, looking for another coach again. 
 

I’d rather be conservative but that doesn’t guarantee success either. At least pre-season and this season will be so much more hopeful.

You have to go 1, because if you go 3, another QB needy team will just cave to Chicagos demands and get 1; effectively taking both Young and Stroud off the board. Houston is going to take Young or Stroud. 
 

Gotta get the 1st pick

I feel like a trade up to 3 is going to, at minimum, cost us a 2 this year, a 1 next year, and another pick or two thrown in. Arizona is going to get a premium for 3. 
 

Just accept any trade up is going to require a future 1st, if not multiple 1’s

I think most people think Stroud is the best QB in this class.

 

The question is how bad do we want him. Probably have to give up 3 1st to get that #1 pick.

IF we really think he is the next great QB then we have to pull the trigger IMO.

If we like Levis the most this makes sense. I don’t see a scenario at this point he goes one. So let another team take their guy at one and grab ours 2 picks later without giving up as much. I could see it, if Will is our guy.

Yup. I think we want Stroud and the only path to get him at this point I think is going 1

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
