There is always that guy who simply can't understand the basic math.   Any pick # that you didn't own before is compensation for the one or one's you traded them for.

If you consider the value of a good QB on a cheap cap hit for up to a decade, the price really isn't that high.

And there's always that guy that can't comprehend math trying to tell it to others.  2 minus 1 is 1.

With the Panthers now a little light on draft picks, maybe they'll be interested in shopping some established player for a mid-rounder.  Do they have any O linemen worth a look?

Unless it is Zach Wilson 2.0.

Obviously, nothing is guaranteed.  They do have the pick of the litter, and if they did their scouting right, that puts them in the best position to avoid that happening.

Beane sleeping at the wheel again, could have given them Allen and 27 to go up and get a cheaper alternative at QB, never going to solve this cap situation without a reset.

Not particularly. Moton & Ekwonu are the only decent O Linemen they have who are worth anything IMO. They are not going to trade either for 3-5 rounders.

Tepper was desperate.

Carolina gave away a lot for a so so QB.

 

None of this class of QBs are likely franchise. Perhaps serviceable to good is likely their landing spot.

 

I think the Bears did well. Their fans have to be happy.

It's telling that you had to edit that. 😂

 

So if the Bills traded Josh Allen for Ryan Tannehill and Derrick Henry all they got in trade was Derrick Henry?

 

The #1 overall pick and #9 pick have very different values...........that's not an exchange of equal value, obviously.  

 

This is why there are trade value charts.

If you think a guy is your franchise QB, then you move heaven and earth to get him. Now the Panthers just has to make sure they don’t miss. 
 

But WOW - Bears made off with an absolute haul! Should be interesting to see what Fields does next year. 

[skibum]

A pretty solid deal for Carolina; the #1 overall pick is a very expensive prize, and that's about as little as you could hope to pay for it.

A poster on the Carolina forum who claims to have inside knowledge of the organization said the pick is down to either Stroud or Levis.

A friend of mine who has a source in the organization said it’s down to Stroud or Levis but a decision has not been made yet. 

 

Was also told that there isn’t a decision on how WR will be addressed yet but that the team does trust Terrace Marshall’s development. 

 

Take that for what it’s worth."

Bears will find a way to mess this up...they are as poorly run of a franchise as anyone over the past 10+ years. 

[starrymessenger]

It's gotta be CJ Stroud. What nfl GM would make a move like that for a 180 lb 5'10" QB? Can't believe they would do this for Levis either.
If Richardson has the ability to process or if that ability is there to be developed he will be a lot better than all these other guys.

I think the Bears robbed Carolina. Carolina must really love someone. I think it’s CJ Stroud.

Same.  If I’m the colts, I’d take Stroud. I like young but I wouldn’t risk the franchise future on a QB his size.
 

Some of you guys would really take Richardson #1 overall?   I mean, I love the god given talent but I’d rather draft LeBron James and teach him how to play QB.  Richardson might be a slightly better runner

You don’t think Richardson has potential to be a good passer? I’m shocked! There’s only one way to handle this, I challenge you to a saxophone battle!
