Lance is way too much of a project to me. He could work out or be another QB with all the athleticism in the world but lacking arm talent. Sure, he can throw pretty far but he lacks accuracy, touch and arm angles that elite prospects have. 
 

Sometimes the stats do tell the whole story, NDSU vs their first “real” competition against James Madison in the Championship game only asked Lance to throw 10 passes on a clear day while he rushed the ball 30 times. He completed 6 passes while running for 166 yards. I’d be hesitant to take Lance, give me someone with more arm talent than just an athletic profile.

This isn’t true. He has shown he can do all of this, the point is consistency and experience. Which is why he is raw and needs time.  But he possesses nfl traits. That’s why scouts are clamoring about him. He would need time for sure. I don’t think that’s really debatable. 

Jmu blitzed Lance all game and made them pay with his legs.

Even if Lance is our guy and not one of the more “pro ready” guys, I don’t want him in the bench for more than 2.5 games. I can’t stomach another season of Teddy and there’s no better way to learn than to do. 

I’d sit him for a year. But if we did draft him I’d bet he’d be starting by week 6 because teddy is so abysmal.

VERGE,

Do you still believe Panthers will draft a QB if the 4th option is available? Which I still think would be an outstanding QB and the correct move in my opinion. 

Not verge but IMO they have absolutely no other option.  They have to get someone in there ASAP in order to get them ready because Teddy is just so bad.  If its Mac Jones at 9 or wherever then so be it if Brady and co evaluate him thoroughly.  They are not going to sign another vet, they cannot cut TB and they sure as hell cannot trot Teddy out there next season with the expectation of him starting 16 games.  Thats another wasted year.

I think Lance has the best chance of the non-Lawrence QBs to wind up being the best QB in this class. Also a chance he busts but his upside is truly insane. I'd take him at 9 or wherever we pick in a heartbeat and sit him behind Teddy for a year. We'd be in great shape.

I like the fact that they say he's the hardest worker.  Gives me some sense of comfort that he won't come in thinking he's the next PM.  

I believe that if Rhule selects him, he meets the criteria to be a Panther.  Many might not believe me but I believe that each and every player both FA and draftee will have to meet this criteria.  Fast, Smart, Athletic.  

As you said the situation is perfect to bring him in and sit behind TB.  I would also be quick to pull the plug on TB if he continues to keep us close but not winning.  If we aren't going to be winning might as well let the rookie earn his blood strip.

Too bad we're probably going to win again on Sunday and go to like pick 15.

People need to quit thinking in terms of ranking, either you have the appropriate grade on him to draft him in the top 10 or you don't.  Doesn't matter if he is the 2nd, 4th, or 6th QB taken.

Lets be honest, most of the season we all thought we would end up drafting in that 6-10 range, everyone got a bit excited when we got close to the top-3.  Since the beginning I've always thought that our most likely QB to draft would be QB4.  I just hope we don't have to trade up to insure it, but I would consider it.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
