What would you prefer to do?  Lets assume Trevor, Zach, and Justin are off of the board.

Sign a guy in a later round? If so who?  If you answer is Jones in the second, give us a second name for when he isn't there.

Sign a different free agent QB?  Who? Build around Teddy? 

Its easy to say what you won't do, its easy to say a certain QB won't work, honestly more than half don't.  At some point though you have to decide on someone, so lets hear it.

Wait until next year to draft a QB? who?

 

Personally if like Fields and/or Wilson I'm looking to trade to 3, and yes I'm willing to give up multiple first and/or a player like CMC.

If I like Lance, I'm trying to get 5.

That’s the key sentence there, it’s all going to depend whether the Panthers like him...if they do, he is going to be the pick.  If they don’t like him, don’t pick him just because he’s a QB, select whatever other player you’re more comfortable with, there’s plenty of talent available and so many holes to fill on this team.

As a fan without any responsibility you can say whatever you want. Why not say you will give up more to get Lawrence? It's easy when it's just words.

but the problem with fans is a year from now they will say "I told you so when things don't work" but in reality they never had the courage to who they did like from the start.

Its easy to take the field, GMs don't have that luxury.

If option B is another backup level QB, hard pass. We can sign a 1 year backup to start and not waste a draft pick this year and next.

If we want and can afford a QB we like then they need to go get them or be prepared for a cheap rental QB hell. They did this to themselves, Teddy should never have been signed.

This may catch a lot of flak, but I could see Lance going back to the #3 QB on draft boards. He’s run a pro offense, has a hell of an arm, and can run the ball at a very high level. 
 

The only question is the lack of competition that he had to face in the FCS. I for one prefer Lance over Fields.

Honestly there is a good chance there are teams with him 3rd.  People get this idea that all teams agree, they don't.

Chances are all of the teams probably have Trevor first.  I'm guessing teams start to differ when you talk about 2,3,4, and 5.  There could easily be a team that has Jones 4th.  All it takes is one team to draft our of order so to speak.

This is why you don’t win meaningless games at the end of the season in the middle of a rebuild we you need a QB. 
 

You have to come out of this draft with 

Lance, Fields, or Wilson. Although I have questions about Fields and Wilson. 

 

I agree, I hate this idea of constantly trying to make it work with some later round "gem"

I know people hate giving up a perceived sure thing in a non-QB first round pick but if you don't have a QB it doesn't matter.

That post from Brugler about how the scouts are feeling about the top of the QB class is exactly why Ive got Trask at 3/4th QB right there with Lance. I had a feeling Fields would drop.

When a Trask is outperforming with sometimes lesser talent it shines a light on all these guys like, how come YOU couldnt throw for 4125+yrds and 43 touchdowns after a standout previous year.

I like Lance though.

I am psyched to get Lance at 8, but this draft could go many ways. I also am of the opinion that if we move up, 5 is where we need to get to.

If we stand pat and don't get a QB at 8, I'm all for sending our 3rd rounder to NY for Darnold. Take Farley or Surtain II at 8 and an OT in round 2.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      They're examples of denying reality. Here are some others: ,- Bryce is the worst QB in the NFL right now (no he isn't) - Bryce is the worst QB in NFL history (no he's not; that's stupid) - Well then Bryce is at least the the worst QB in the league over the last three years (nope, he's actually improved a lot since year one, which was a turbulent year anyway) - That's not true, he hasn't Improved one but since his rookie year (oh come on) 🙄 - Well, even if he did, we can't win with him (obviously we can) - Yeah but not unless everyone else is damn near perfect (think the game film from our wins this year would back that up?) - Even so, we won those games in spite of him (officially the stupidest argument available) And no, those are made up. You can find those quotes and other equally moronic statements in various threads around the board. I know some folks always need to characterize whatever they're against as the worst thing in existence. It's hyperbole, and it's hypersilly. Likewise, you've got some who are so absolutely emotional about it that even if you think Bryce isn't good enough (which I do) they'll still call you a stan if you don't agree to label him the lousiest passer in existence 🙄 It's just dumb, and it's not realistic. But on the flipside, here are some statements which are; - Bryce is indeed capable of both playing in, and winning, an NFL game. Not on a consistent level though, and consistency is huge. - He is also capable of completing mid-range and even some deep passes; hell, he threw a beauty this past Sunday  - Yes, he has improved over his rookie season and over last year. Arguing against that is disingenuous. - Believe it or not, other players are the roster do make mistakes in games also.  - And lastly, while I know it hurts some people's narrative and arguments, Bryce does indeed deserve credit for the winning games he's played in this season. ... Every single one of those statements is true. And since i acknowledge all that, I must be in favor of keeping him in place then Except I'm not 😕 ... Don't know of anyone who doesn't think he'll get the fifth year option. Not ready to guarantee anything beyond that, though. So bottom line: Yeah, Bryce is fully expected to be our quarterback through next year. If there were a logical, realistic path to acquire a more capable starter and transition Bryce to a backup I'd be elated, but that's a pipe dream. This where we're at  I don't **** it, you don't like it, others don't either. But here We are so let's make the best of it that we can.

      Let's be real. Signing Matt Kalil who was at the time inconsistent at best was always an extremely risky move and largely initiated by the fact he was related to one of our most prominent players Ryan Kalil. Memories get fuzzy the longer time passes I guess. Go watch some old Panthers games with Ted Ginn nearly losing us games. Then watch Cam Newton keep going back to him again and again and again. Then read all the Xavier Legette criticism while making excuses for Bryce being swept by rookie 2nd round pick Tyler Shough. Throwing TMac under the bus is just further proof how deranged the Bryce Young defense force has become. Bryce Young can barely compete in this gutter iteration of the NFC South. Let's see him take this WR core to the playoffs in an NFC South with Drew Brees and Matt Ryan
