I like Young as a College QB. This isn't College. He would immediately be the smallest qb in frame to ever be drafted. I dont care which qb you want if you aren't concerned, then you either don't understand the NFL or are just not going to acknowledge it. If he gets crushed, you just mortgaged our franchise for at least 5 years. I'm not willing to take that risk, but if others are comfortable with it, so be it. That is the main argument.

I am lmao. I made zero comments, said this is supposed to be our selection, posted a picture and folks lose their minds. It's the same as an inkblot test. Your response is what you see, nothing I said.

I dont know who the pick will be but still want Stroud due to accuracy and NFL size. But seeing an article from an unemployed former talking head and giving his take from his basement podcast, makes me take this much less seriously.

Sanders. I think he can be groomed to be a terrific 1 2 punch with Burns

LB Drew Sanders Arkansas CB Emmanuel Forbes Miss State RB Devon Achane TAMU WR Tyler Scott Cincinnati

It was but it was because he not only was an elite passer, but ran like a deer. CJ is a better passer, but isn't going to be a prolific runner

According to one college coach. And he's talking about CJ Stroud. I'm ready for the draft because all we are getting is a steady stream of one guy is incredible, this one blew me away, etc. I'm just glad it will be over soon and that we put ourselves in a position to get a leader for the next decade, instead of the rental trash we have been putting on the field. https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/2023/03/31/2023-nfl-mock-draft-college-coach-c-j-stroud-trevor-lawrence/?utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=facebook

If we are going to do this, see Alabama QBs in the NFL. They suck

Seems like Bryce came up short

I'd really like LB Drew Sanders of Arkansas if he's there. Has the ability to add weight and get to 6'5" 245. Very athletic and would bookend Burns.

I want Stroud because I think he's a better passer and has the size to be a franchise QB for a decade. I've seen Young play several times and love his game, but at the college level. I have my doubts that with his slight frame that he will stay healthy. Having said that, I want whoever the staff finally decides on and am not going to be disappointed in whoever gets called. I'm just excited we put ourselves in a position to get one of these two.

As a season ticket holder at Mississippi State, I get to see Alabama every year as well as LSU, and Georgia two of the last 3 years. As good as they are, it is nothing like the NFL. Thats the reason The Golden Calf of Bristol was all SEC and All American, yet was an NFL washout. Two entirely different animals

In all honesty, if Bryce was 3 inches taller and 30 pounds heavier, no one would be having as much of a debate. But he isn't. And most forget the one thing that has elevated his play substantially is having a former NFL OC and HC as his coordinator. He should look polished on film and does. But none of that changes the fact he doesn't have the size to stay healthy in a league of seek and destroy missiles. You cam hope and wish all you want, but it isn't going to change his measurables.

Picture of Reich watching Young at his Pro Day.

No wonder he has such a problem putting on weight

Size, Accuracy, Leadership, Attitude and a proven winner. They have met with him for a long time both last night and before the combine. He is our franchise QB

Want to really go off the rails? Select Will Anderson #1. He is the best player in the draft and then come back for Hooker. Now that would be a real shocker

The problem with Hopkins isn't what we trade, since we've shown under Fitt that we will trade for anyone. The problem is working his salary into our budget.

No one knows at this point, and all anyone is doing is guessing. Mel Kiper just put out his latest edition draft today with us selecting Stroud. We will know in a few weeks

Well why not wait til her General Draft 3.0 since 1.0 had us taking a CB that didn't test well at the combine. Sorry, but if we moved up to 1 to take a tiny college qb who won't be in the league more than 5 or so years due to injuries, we deserve to fail. My only hope is we want Houston to make a trade. Stroud is the only QB in this draft you make a move for. Not Baker Mayfield 2.0.

It had to be done or we were going to continually be a 5 to 7 win team going nowhere. DJ is a good, not great WR. On most teams he's a #2 but had to be #1 because we are one of the bottom in the league wr units.

Unless they find a good deal, I think we are going to use the draft for WR. 2nd and 3rd WR pics. And with the garbage WR FA market and everyone wanting too much in trades for good not great players, I'm fine with that

Wilson and Brees were short but both were stocky and well built. Bryce is short and small. Alabama has a world class weight training facility. If they had years with him and he is still 180 to 185, that's who he is. He is too small for a long career in the NFL and that gamble would kill Carolina for years. We are going to take stroud.

Sign a FA and draft one at 39. Could get another in the 3rd. I want them to build an offense and not give up the farm for other teams cast offs. We will have plenty of cap space to go get a #1 next year. I'm all for being patient
