panthers are serious about making sure they have the best QB possible going into the future. can't hate on that.

can't really fit a vet QB into the picture now, though. no way do we go into the season with 4 QBs on the 53 man roster. putting pike on the PS will be stupid because he would get claimed right away.

QB of the future is on the team right now. just a matter of finding who it is.

this is the first pick i don't like. whether or not it's value is irrelevant. we didn't need another qb. we already had moore, clausen, and edwards in an emergency. one of the 4 is going to be traded, or worst case scenario dropped for nothing. we should've gone with another pick here.

Pike was pretty much an insurance pick. We finally have 3 legit QB's to choose from. One will be a back-up, the other a starter, and the last of the three will be traded for a pick in the years to come and we will get that pick back. Panthers are definitely addressing the QB and WR spots. Have to like that plus Eric Norwood is a beast!

3 legit QBs? We have zero...maybe 1 if you want to count Moore and his 8 NFL starts. Plus, we basically just ensured we won't have a vet to help show Clausen how to be an NFL QB. I like Moore but he isn't a vet to show young guys what to do....he still needs that veteran type player to assist him on the team.

I don't mind this pick at all. The reason I don't exactly like the Clausen pick was because I felt like Golden would have immediately made us contenders with Steve Smith. PLus I really like Matt Moore. LaFell, Edwards, and Gettis are all good picks with solid potential but I really felt like Tate was a sure fire answer to WR, in particular the answer that Steve Smith was looking for. Though I think Gettis and Edwards have the ability to be that too.

      Poor kid. Here's hoping he someday gets a chance. In the meantime, someone else will be getting an opportunity and hopefully they can make the most of it.

      [The Athletic] Panthers’ offseason to-do list

      By Navy_football · Posted

      This is it. The Panthers don't have the draft picks or salary cap to approach the offseason position-by-position. That's for teams much further along. They'll have to address "mission areas" rather than individuals, and they'll need to be creative rather than taking a linear approach. I'd add "improve the pass rush: as 1B with "improving the run defense" as 1A. Trying to upgrade every weak position is just not feasible. It'll take 2 or 3 great drafts. For instance, a guy like Luvu that can play the run and rush the QB would be huge in both areas. A fix? No. But a definite improvement. We're focused on a WR1, when a guy like CMC would provide a playmaking option that defenses will have to account for in the passing and running game. And I think an explosive playmaker is more important than adding another guy that can catch the ball in traffic. We have that in spades. Can't solve this riddle in one offseason without taking away from current areas of strength. It's a puzzle that won't be easy to solve. And they'll need to be future focused while being current competent.  My opinions/approach: I'm thinking the focus should be on defensive players that are good at both the run and pass pressure rather than specialists. A stout run-stopping OLB that can also pressure the QB is the better option for the Panthers right now, rather than a sack specialist. We had a pure pass rusher with Burns. Teams just ran the ball at him and took him out of games. A DT that can consistently get in the backfield and disrupt plays rather than a run stuffing NT is probably a better option for the Panthers right now too - Mason Graham. That addresses both the pass and run. Neither of these players would have great numbers, but they'd improve the defense and force offenses to scheme rather than just impose their will. That's when we'll see what Evero is really about. A later round speed WR that forces defenses to keep a safety over the top would really open up the offense - a Ted Ginn Jr type. Maybe a true pass receiving RB that can make guys miss in the open field. These guys aren't usually conventional early round draft picks but they'll improve the team in mission areas rather than focus areas.
