NcFinest9erFan Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Panthers general manager Scott Fitterer said acquiring Sam Darnold from the Jets doesn't take Carolina out of the quarterback market in the upcoming NFL Draft. "This doesn't take us out of anything in the draft," Fitterer said when asked about what the Darnold acquisition means for the team's draft plans. "It doesn't take us out of taking a quarterback, it doesn't take us out of taking any position. What we wanted to do going into this draft, through free agency, through this trade with Sam, was to just get rid of all the needs we have." It's just about what you'd expect any GM to say three weeks before the draft, though it's highly unlikely any of the top-four QBs will be available for the Panthers, who have the eighth pick. Darnold is a reclamation project for the Panthers. He inarguably has a higher ceiling than Teddy Bridgewater, whose disastrous 2020 season included 15 touchdown passes and 11 picks in 15 games.

They are going to be a prime trade down team now. I can definitely see that. I think outside of the first 3 picks in the draft, the Patriots, Washington, and the Bears seem like good candidates for a possible trade up for a QB that falls to the end of the top 10. The Broncos are a maybe for me in terms of a QB and the Vikings are a dark horse for me as well. I never really thought the Falcons were going to take a QB either.

I didn't think so either but ATL has a potential out after this year with Ryan. They would save 8 mill if they move on from him next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NcFinest9erFan Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer reports Patriots head coach Bill Belichick ignored team scouts who wanted to draft A.J. Brown and Deebo Samuel over N'Keal Harry in the 2019 NFL Draft. The revelation comes a week after Patriots owner Bob Kraft criticized the team's draft results. Belichick reportedly ignored his personnel department and went with Harry as the 32nd pick based on Harry’s performance during a non-workout visit and Belichick’s relationship with Harry’s college coach, Todd Graham. The rest is history: Harry has been a non-entity in the New England offense -- catching 45 passes for 414 yards in two seasons -- while Brown is among the league's most explosive wideouts and Samuel is an electric after-the-catch weapon and a staple of the 49ers offense. Breer said Kraft’s recent reference to a “different approach” to the NFL Draft indicates Belichick is now listening more to his personnel department.
