The 2022 season is the definition of a "make it or break it" season if there ever was one for the Carolina Panthers!
So many of the questions surrounding the Panthers directly involve the QB position. Sam Darnold inspires confidence in absolutely no one despite what this coaching staff might say, and they are even entertaining the possibility of re-signing Cam Newton yet again. The Panthers did draft Ole Miss QB Matt Corral with the 94th pick in the 2022 NFL draft, but coaches have reiterated more than once that they intend to bring him along slowly as opposed to forcing him into action his rookie season.
With that said, if Carolina is picking 3rd overall, Matt Corral won't be enough to prevent them from taking one of the drafts' top signal-callers. Enter, Ohio State QB, CJ Stroud!

PANTHERS HISTORICAL DRAFT PICKS
Reach/Value (R/V) Explained
The difference between where a player is selected in the NFL draft versus where the player was listed on the final Drafttek Big Board for the season in question.Example: A player who was listed at #50 on the Big Board and was selected at #35 will be a "Reach" of -15. Alternately, a player listed at #35 on the Big Board who was selected at #50 is a +15 "Value".
Simply put: a positive number is a Value pick, a negative number is a Reach.
