raleigh-panther

this was an interesting segment yesterday. Some of you may have seen it on ESPN he us all aboard the Stroud or AR train…says Panthers could own the South for 10 years. Of course Hasselback chimes in with Garrapolo. Im like, just say ‘no’ on the injury machine that he is https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/2023/02/28/panthers-espn-dan-orlovsky-nfc-south-qb-nfl-draft/

I read a couple of hrs ago that Bryce is not going to throw at the combine

Washington released QB Carson Wentz. Releasing Wentz saves the Commanders $26.17 million against their salary cap.

Lol

Thanks Rayzor. Appreciate it

What has Carr ever done to justify 40 million per year

I have nothing against Derek Carr personally he is an average nfl qb and seems like a decent guy and it is true he played for franchise killer, McDaniels, but he has done nothing to warrant $40 million a year or multiple years plus Let someone else grab that bait He is not worth it draft the qb they want. Have a bridge qb for six games, 10 games, the year.who is competent like Brisset and move on

Yes. His body of work is small but what is there, and what is good is outerworldly My feeling is that what he has cannot be taught what he needs to improve on can be taught and the Panthers have teachers others disagree and that’s ok but for me it’s Stroud because he is an already baked cake or it’s AR who could become something very special in a world of Carrs and Tannehills people who think this guy is going to get out of the top 10 are kidding themselves

Desmond Ridder is….his NFL comparison? oh hell no

Agree and he got better

From Bleacher Report pulled comment on David Carr only NFL Free Agents Teams Will Regret Spending Big Money On GARY DAVENPORTFEBRUARY 21, 2023 There are two types of teams in the NFL: those who already have a franchise quarterback and those who do not. Teams in the latter group will talk themselves into doing some wacky stuff—see: Carson Wentz over the last two seasons. The New York Jets have already kicked the tires this offseason on Derek Carr. The New Orleans Saints have been linked to the 31-year-old as well. Those won't be the only two teams who take a run at Carr. The more teams that show interest, the bigger his contract is likely to get. But whichever team hands Carr a truck full of cheddar is likely to get Wentz'd. Last year, Carr was 14th leaguewide in passing yards (3,522), which is neither terrible nor great. However, he was 30th in completion percentage (60.8), 24th in passer rating (86.3), tied for third in interceptions (14) and tied for 18th in yards per attempt (7.0). Those numbers shouldn't inspire any team to hand Carr a contract worth $40-plus million annually. And make no mistake, that's entirely possible. Spotrac estimates his new deal will average $37.7 million per season. For his career, Carr is 16 games below .500 as a starter and has made one postseason start in nine years. In other words, while Carr may not be a bad quarterback, he isn't an especially good one, either. And handing him $35-$40 million a season is a risky bet.

Seems like a good guy….doing his mental reps I like him I watched him on tv a few times and didn’t impress me but it might have been an off game

From what I’ve seen over the years, Frank values processing speed, the ability to do chunk plays (big arm), prototypical size, and mobility in the pocket that’s what he wants and I believe he stated the same in his press conference not all coaches value all those particular traits in other words, given this years draft prospects, Andrew luck Lite or a better version of Wentz

That was my thought as well when Frank was hired. Those 3, in that order

Lol

Mods. I wasn’t sure where to put this so pls merge if appropriate Per Ryan Fowler on tweeter Tennessee QB Hendon Hooker has met extensively with the Raiders, Panthers, Giants, Saints, and Cowboys during the pre-draft process, per source. The dual-threat talent is expected be healthy and ready for training camp after suffering a torn ACL in Nov.

From another site. The write up by an expert after the Mahomes pick by Chiefs

There are many times in need of a QB there are also teams that are good and will take a swing to improve the qb position. Reference kc moving up from nowhere to take Mahomes and the 49ers for Lance Its ridiculous for anyone to think teams outside of the top ten won’t try and move up

Don’t care how many picks a team has. In the current nfl, with rules geared to offense, if they don’t have a starting qb, they have zero you can believe in the Darnold and Corral disaster if you wish but I want better we are in a position to get better at QB. Go get it

Agree Carr is going to cost a lot of money is he worth it, hard to say…I think McDaniels is franchise killer and Carr was treated not well but Carr is serviceable. So was Bridgewater. So was fill in the blank I'm Pretty tired of wounded, underproducing QBs, other teams cast offs it’s time for the Panthers to go big Go get Stroud whatever it takes just freakin do it the GM has said over and over again ‘desired position is to draft and grow a qb’ with this coaching staff of supposed ‘teachers’, the time is now if not now, when?

As shared in another post, pick your poison

He has a coach who does. I’m sure he is capable

Seems pretty accurate to me

We don’t know, and probably will never know, the full story with any of these former and current players I feel the Panthers are better to draft the QB they want. If it takes 3 firsts, it takes 3 firsts for someone who could lead this team for years and provide stability at the position Given the number of ‘teachers’ on the coaching staff, all indications are drafting a QB they also need a backup, 17 game season demands it they have Eason and Corral. Eason has a history with Reich
