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.

    • You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
    • Yeah, this is all projections of how it will turn out. Inevitability this list will look ridiculous in a full 2025 sesson hindsight, most likely. Still, I am pretty surprised that so many bristled at being thought of as having very, very lowly ranked WR and TE units. We literally have been for years. All you have to do is just have things stay the same and those are immediately bottom 5 units. It is easy to see why one would be reticent to have lofty expectations in the preseason. Gotta show it first when you are a perennial cellar dweller. That's just life at the bottom.
    • That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.
