Carolina trades for 1 overall!

Seattle got a better return for Russ.

Key difference is obviously that the #1 pick will be on a rookie deal for 4 years + 5th year option so they save a lot of money there and IF they think the guy they'll take at #1 is a future HoFer then it's probably a good move... but that Panthers team is terrible. Maybe playing in a bad division makes more sense for them but you only make this move for a QB. They must have someone they like.
 
The last time the Panthers had an established QB was Cam.. are they targetting the next Cam -- Richardson? The timing of the trade sure seems like it doesnt it?
 
Anything other than a QB at the #1 spot and they'll have made the wrong move. You may think there's not a QB worth trading all those picks for but I don't think we've ever seen a team go that pick for any other position.
