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 fully expect them to pick up his 5th year , and they're waiting for him to put a full excellent consistent season of QB play in year 4 or 5. If that don't happen,  they'll eventually cut ties.  Here's to hoping he just goes on a team in 2026. The worst thing he could do is continue to see-saw us to around .500 records because it might be impossible to replace him at that point unless youre willing to do the veteran qb carousel poo we did from 2019 to 2023.   
    • What do you think of Bryce Youngs career thus far? Are you excited about his progress or is it not enough for you? I included a poll of ranking his performance through 3 years thus far.  I personally think he's made some decent progress. Has had some high moments (last half of 2024, Rams game, ATL game in 2025)  but in my mind, those are still outweighed by the many more lowlights thus far (ex turnovers, missed throws, poor decisions)  It's a very mixed bag for me. He's done enough to get a 5th year option but by no means should we lock him in with a 50+ mil a year multi year deal. I want to see him play consistently well for a full year before that happens (yes, I'm still saying that going into year 4. That might be telling).  Just sucks when you see CJ Stroud, Jayden Daniel's, Caleb Williams almost immediately lighting poo up with their arm talent. Maybe Bryce is just an ultra slow burn. I don't know what to think anymore. Guess we're gonna be stuck with him for a whilr unless we end up being bad enough to earn a high pick next year. I doubted it lol. Overall Stats for his career:       ● 14 W - 30L (regular season)       ● 0-1 playoffs record        ● 61.4% completion, 8291 passing yards, 49 TDs, 30 INTs  Year 1:       ● 2 wins, 14 losses      ● 60% completion rate, 2877 passing yards, 11 TD to 10 INTs, 5.5 yards per attempted pass Year 2:        ● 4 wins , 8 losses        ● 60.9% completion rate,  2403 passing yards, 15 TD, 9 INTs,  6.3 yards per attempted pass  Year 3:        ● 8 Wins, 8 Losses         ● 63.6% competition rate, 3011 passing yards, 23 TDs to 11 INTs  Playoffs         ● 1 game in year 3 ( 0 - 1 in playoffs)         ● 21/40 (52.5% completion rate), 264 passing yards, 1 TD, 1 INT.
