Locked On Panthers - Daily Podcast On The Carolina Panthers

The Carolina Panthers have traded a 2021 sixth-round pick along with 2022 second and fourth-round picks to the New York Jets for quarterback Sam Darnold.

Does this mean that Sam Darnold will be the Week 1 starter in Carolina? Were Darnold's issues because of Adam Gase and the poor situation in New York or were they on him? How does Darnold fit into the Panthers offense? Does Darnold provide an immediate upgrade from Teddy Bridgewater? Where do the Panthers now do at 8?

NFL Pro Days roll on. Kyle Pitts showed out at his in Gainesville. Would it be crazy for the Panthers to draft Pitts at 8 given the other positional needs on the roster? Or does his talent outweigh any other concerns on the roster?

The Athletic's Baltimore Ravens reporter Jeff Zrebiec suggests that the Panthers offering the 39th overall pick in the upcoming 2021 NFL Draft could potentially be enticing enough for the Ravens to trade left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. Are the Panthers better off trading for a proven tackle or drafting one later this month in what is perceived to be a deep class?

If the Panthers strike out on one of the top quarterbacks could a guy like Texas A&M's Kellen Mond, who they coached at the Senior Bowl, be a developmental target who could potentially become the franchise down the road?
