True and sadly it looks like UNC will be N.I.T. bound.

I wouldn't worry to much about C.J.'s supposed personality weakness. I recall the N.F.L. Scouts were reporting that the then, Oregon QB Justin Herbert leads by example but is not a commanding presence. We all know how good he has turned out.

"Bad News Anderson" would have been an ideal choice.

I would be satisfied if the Panthers sign Derek Carr, with the plan to make him the permanent starter and Draft Levis or Richardson at # 9 to develop and takeover when Carr leaves.

Thanks for the heads up. This could bear watching.

I could easy see that happening.

Let the excitement begin. My congratulations are extended to Tepper, Fitterer, Dan Morgan and the whole Panthers staff for putting together what looks like an All Star coaching staff..

The worst or best case sceniro if the Panthers stay put and the top 3 QB's are gone, would be that Florida QB Anthony Richardson would still be available and he would not be all that bad of a choice.

My guess is Derek Carr signs with either the Jets or Saints, who are currently projected to be front runners in obtaining him. If that is indeed the case, I could see the Panthers signing the much less expensive Jacoby Brissett as a bridge QB and draft Kentucky's QB Will Levis or Florida's QB Anthony Richardson, depending on which one is available when they select # 9 in the 2023 NFL Draft..

Congratulations are extended to the Panthers for putting togeather what looks like a great coaching staff. Now, they need to get a good QB to go with this coaching staff and the 2023 season and beyond will really look promising.

The 2022 NFL Draft had potential for chaos as there were no blue chip QBs, a lot of teams wanting to trade down, and a quarter of the league had no 1st round pick to start the draft.

A fellow Panthers teammate once said "When I talk about Steve Smith coming in as an angry man, it was more about a chip on his shoulder and being able to prove everybody wrong," . Smith carried that chip until the end of his career, which ended with the Baltimore Ravens in 2016 after being cut by the Panthers in 2013. QB Jake Delhomme said "Players were literally scared of him." Former Utah teammate and long-time Panthers teammate Jordan Gross, agreed. "Steve just played pissed off. " "In college, Steve literally got into fistfights with teammates. Every day, almost. ... The same things that got him in trouble, whether it was punching a teammate or whatever, were the same traits that made him a Hall of Fame receiver."

Let's keep it up!!!

I agree. Sounds like a plan.

I am not in favor of trading Jarvis. Anxious to see how this plays out.

I am with you all the way!!!!

The cost factor and Carr being 31 yrs old, an age lots of QB's start slowing down, are both concerns for me.

Any time I hear the words "trade up', I get a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach and a fear that the Panthers will give up more than they receive, costing them in the long run.

While I feel sure Bears GM Ryan Poles will do his homework on QB's Bryce Young, C.J. Stroud and Will Levis in the pre-draft process, I would be highly surprised if they would be willing to move on from Fields.

You summed up my exact feeling very nicely.

Congratulations ladypanther, you looked in your crystal ball and correctly called the Chiefs winning on the last drive.

So would I if he is available.

Exactly!!! There is a limit on the amount a team can play one player and still be able to compete long term.

Exactly. Let Atlanta go get him. I had much rather the Falcons wreck their salary cap and give up much needed draft picks than the Panthers.
