We’ve got a good mix of draft, free agent and trade stuff in this week’s mailbag. Let’s dive into it …
From Matt Ramas (@matt_ramas): Which QB will the Panthers take at No. 1?
Matt, I don’t know. Very few people do. But if I’m putting puzzle pieces together here, knowing what I do about the prospects, my guess would be that Alabama’s Bryce Young is the leader in the clubhouse, and that he set the baseline for the Panthers as they started to aggressively pursue a trade for the No. 1 pick. In that scenario, Carolina would be saying, implicitly, it’d be satisfied taking Young there, while giving the other three presumptive first-round quarterbacks a shot to catch or pass him over the next six weeks.
