Mentioned this possibility  last week and was told the pick has been made already! No doubt  that Bryce  is probably  the fave but Fitt is always open for business. 

People talk like there's some kind of intrinsic value to the #1 pick, or there's something special about being able to say you got the first quarterback in the draft.

Yeah...None of that is true.

The first quarterback in the draft can just as easily be Baker Mayfield as it can be Peyton Manning. There's nothing magical about that position.

And hell, I'd suggest there's more credibility in saying you got your guy later rather than sooner. The Chiefs can crow that they got arguably the best quarterback in the league 10th overall.

So frankly, as long as we get a guy who can finally be our franchise quarterback, who gives a sh-t whether we picked him at #1 or #12? I damn sure don't.

And if we can get that guy plus additional picks that can be used to build around him, to quote well-known philosopher Steven Austin, hell yeah!

This is just the "draft market" correcting itself to make Levis the #2 QB. I have heard since February and even mentioned on here that they like Levis. However, he is not their #1 QB. The only way I see Carolina taking Levis is if they make some deal to trade out of the number 1 slot-which could happen if there is a tempting offer. OR something very damaging is released about Young- which I highly doubt.

I find it interesting that people were saying Vegas knows stuff that’s why the line is what it is, yet when it shifts another way you get insiders and others saying Vegas doesn’t know poo, so which is it?

People use Vegas to represent their opinion when it's convenient, similar to how people cherry pick statistics. This is just the lines correcting themselves in favor of Levis' increased popularity and Stroud falling. The Reddit article is likely BS but may have accelerated it, it was going to happen anyways.

Makes sense.

I've said all along I wouldn't expect something like that to occur but crazier things have happened.

Never forget that anything is possible.

Honestly I love that this nonsense is coming about the likelihood of controversy at the #1 overall pick. Gives the Panthers more exposure, downside is some are dumb enough to wager on it and Vegas will recoup other losses since people are very irrational when it comes to winning money.
