Panthers offered Dwayne Haskins a contract. He chose the Steelers instead

Funny how people act as if suddenly becoming a millionaire celebrity at age 22 should have no impact on your maturity.  These athletes are put on a pedestal--many from poor homes---and suddenly surrounded by fame and fortune.  They have never failed in sports--always the best athlete on the field, and that is what they believe they are.  So much depends on the athlete's support system.  I expect this coaching staff to kick the tires on a lot a players that we would call "damaged goods". 

Haskins doesn't come from a poor home.

You get to pick between a lower end organization that rarely makes the playoffs and has a QB signed for two more years and rumors swirling that they are going to draft a QB with a top 10 pick

 

or

 

An elite organization with their franchise QB likely retiring soon and never picks top 10 to get a QB. 
 

Every one of you would pick the bottom one. Why is this a surprise?

    • Aho…come out and prove me wrong boy. 
    • I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.
    • I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
