As I’m sure most of you are already aware, the Carolina Panthers sent a sixth round pick in this year’s NFL Draft, along with second and fourth rounders next year, to the New York Jets for former No. 3 overall pick Sam Darnold. If you believe everything you hear on the internet, Darnold is somewhere between an absolute bust that no offensive guru could possibly save and a star in the making whose only flaw was playing for the Jets. Regardless of which outcome happens, the Panthers still have the No. 8 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
