To everyone wanting/expecting the Panthers to draft a QB

Dont bet on it. Despite Panthers fans asking for years to draft a young QB to groom for the future, those pleas have gone unheeded.

Of the 54 picks in the NFL draft in the John Fox era, one...exactly one...has been a QB. That speaks volumes. Whether they dont want to spend $, hate the idea of grooming a young QB, or simply put no thought whatsoever into the future of the position, they have a proven track record of doing everything in their power to not draft a QB.

Actually two.

(Fasani, LeFors)

Although one of them was related to Delhomme LOL

I've pretty much come to terms with the fact that Fox does not know how to develop a QB, which puts a nice shitty ceiling on our potential as long as he's here in the long run, so he doesn't bother to spend the money and would rather acquire more linebackers.

Whoops. I started out with 2003. So its actually 2 QBs drafted in 63 picks in the John Fox era.

I say we take our medicine, trade whoever we have to, get back into upper half of first round and take a QB.

They should've taken Flaco over Stewart or Otah, we'd be set. Of course Flaco may not be as good since he would've been benched all last yr and learning from delhomme.

There is no point in begging for something that should have been done his first year.

John Fox doesn't believe in drafting QBs early, apparently he also doesn't believe in back to back winning seasons.

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
