Agreed. Or deal it for several picks, stink again, and then pick QB?

Regardless of where they are picking I think they need to trade down for picks. Maybe trade down more than once. 

If they try and draft another QB, they are just going to put that guy in the same boat as Young. 

Barring a miracle, Carolina is going to be a bottom feeder for a while.

In week two, Tom Brady let viewers know exactly how he would have treated Dallas’ Jalen Brooks after he fell on his pass route, allowing the ball to be easily intercepted during an eventual 44-19 Saints victory.

Play-by-play partner Kevin Burkhardt asked Brady if he’d throw to Brooks again to build his confidence, and the ex-Patriot and Buccaneer star didn’t mince words.

Brady: “Not today. It’s actually pretty tough to go back there, because you know where he’s at, and you’re saying, ‘God, I’m going to him and I just can’t count on him that he’s gonna stay on his feet.’ You obviously trust him to do the right thing. But can he make the play?”

Brady is right. 

If a player is given opportunities, and fails to make a play to the point where the QB loses confidence in said player, the game is not the place to reestablish confidence. 

That’s what the practice field is for. Work on it during the week, try again the next game.

particularly since the botched play resulted in an INT, and the team was playing catch up.
