Kind of Odd he doesn't have the Panthers listed on any of these QBs. 

I don't also understand how Trey Lance is ahead of Wilson.

Looks more like someone writing what everyone else has said.

Probably has to do with how the league views the Panthers with Bridgewater. They think we have our QB of the future.

I dreamt last night that the Jets took Zach Wilson #1 overall and we were scrambling to trade up.  Weird stuff.  I don’t follow college ball a lot but it’s interesting Lance had 0 picks, I didn’t realize that.  There are definitely good prospects.  If the team really likes a guy and picks a QB in the first, he’s got my support

Thought that too...

You can look at other teams that have West Coast systems though. For example, they mention Wilson as a guy who'd look good in Kyle Shanahan's 49ers system. Shanahan runs a WCO like his dad.

Best Traits: Deep-ball placement and strength, ability to see the field, play under pressure, underneath accuracy

Biggest Questions: Level of talent around him, lack of starting experience

Scout's Take: "You have to worry about the talent around him, especially last year, but he throws a beautiful deep ball and I love his toughness and moxie." — NFL quarterbacks coach
 

jones does everything we don’t have, and haven’t had for yrs.....sounds perfect for us

People see Jones and say Brees and maybe he is.  I see him and think Andy Dalton.  I don't think that is a bad thing.  Dalton's only real problem is he doesn't show up in big games.  If Jones can play big in big games he could be your answer at qb for the next 10 years.  He might never be a MVP but you won't be trying to replace him every 2 years either.

This take on Justin Fields...

Scout's Take: "I'm not sold on the scheme making him NFL-ready, but everything you hear [from coaches at Ohio State] is that he's really smart and well-prepared. I love his athleticism, but his arm is just OK. Scheme is going to matter a lot for him. I hope wherever he goes they build around him with run-after-catch receivers and a good run game." — NFL quarterbacks coach

This overall offensive philosophy seems like exactly what Brady overall wants to implement. Everyone is caught up with arm strength right now after watch Cam with a busted shoulder, Kyle Allen, and Teddy play over the past couple of years, but we don't HAVE to have a guy with a cannon to implement Brady's offense. It would be icing on the cake. We can setup the deep throws with the running game and underneath passing attack. We don't have to go back to the days of a nearly solely vertical passing game like we had with Cam. Honestly, the aforementioned approach is the more efficient way to run an offense.

The only people high on Wilson are folks on this board....all the pros see him as a backup at best

What? :fear:

He's pretty much universally considered one of the top quarterbacks in the draft,  for some possibly the second best behind Lawrence.

What draft sites are you reading?

    • Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers. 
    • Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production. 
    • I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
