With the 5th pick in the 2023 NFL draft the Carolina Panthers select:

Maybe just a tad bit early.....

Exactly!  Let's not Rhule out the 1st or 2nd pick     (did ya see what I did there??)

YES, ... Yes I did. !!

ACTUALLY...... A lot depends on this season, of course, but if Rhule disappears I hope and pray that GM, Scott Fitterer, stays with us. He has been a breath of fresh air around here.

If, and please note I said "IF", we were to end up in the mid single digits somewhere come draft time, I would want Fitterer running that show. AND, I would sort of expect him to make a move upward somehow to grab a highly ranked QB next year. We'll see how this year works out of course, but with Fitterer nothing is off the table.
