Carolina Panthers general manager Scott Fitterer, assistant general manager Dan Morgan, and director of college scouting Cole Spencer met with the local media ahead of next week's NFL Draft where they dispelled reports that they've made their decision on who to take with the top pick. Fitterer did reveal that the past month of evaluations has provided clarity but the Panthers have not zeroed in on a single prospect. While Julian Council believes that the Panthers are still having discussions he remembers the old saying that "when there's smoke, there's fire."Last year as the Panthers contemplated taking a QB early in the draft, comparisons were made to Fitterer's time in Seattle when the Seahawks took Russell Wilson in the third round of the 2012 draft. Carolina would go on to draft Matt Corral after trading back into the 3rd round confirming that Fitterer wasn't afraid to go that route with a potential franchise signal-caller in Carolina. Unfortunately, an injury prematurely ended Corral's rookie season and

For the third straight Monday, several national media reports suggest that the Carolina Panthers are focused on using the first pick on Alabama quarterback Bryce Young. The reports come 10 days before the Panthers need to make that decision and a day prior to the top 30 visits for Ohio State quarterback CJ Stroud, the perceived favorite when they initially traded up to No. 1, and Kentucky signal-caller Will Levis. Julian Council discusses the nervousness surrounding the Panthers possibly arriving at a conclusion of who will usher the franchise forward under center.Where does Panthers owner David Tepper factor into Young being viewed as the organization's choice? Julian takes an in-depth look at the quarterback play in Carolina since Tepper took over ownership and why that's led to the logical conclusion of drafting one next week.Plus, are the Panthers using one final smokescreen by bringing Stroud in for a visit as the entire NFL world believes they've settled on Young?Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Bu
