Joe Person: Panthers don't love other QB's besides Lawrence and Wilson

We drafted Jimmy Clausen. People can say what they want about the man but he knew how to get the job done.

Exactly. Clausen. Not penny pitching got us Cam. Mel Kiper hyped up pickles like no other and Marty fell for it. That huge mistake got us Cam the next year.

I don't trust Kiper on 6'2", slight of frame QBs that resemble another slight of frame 6'2" QB. Not biting. The Panthers probably would.

NFL is an entertainment product. Put a boring product on the field and see what happens. 

Oh I’m seeing it. This forum has done nothing but cry for months now. Counterpoint. Don’t win a super bowl and see the meltdown of having Luke and Cam for years and achieving virtually nothing. Those almost no way to make you guys happy.

But just because some of you are threatening to not watch next year if you don’t get what you want (a different QB) doesn’t mean the smart thing to do is sell the farm for a QB. That simply isn’t how you rebuild. I’m sorry you don’t like to hear it but it’s the truth.

Ehhhh I could definitely see this being a smokescreen by the Panthers. Saying you really love the guaranteed number one and two overall picks doesn't tip your hand at all

I still maintain Fields will drop to us and we will take him. That doesn't take us out of the Deshaun running later as Fields is an enticing piece. Further we give up 0 assets to a future deshaun trade by remaining at 8

I'd be willing to bet that the difference between the number of times Panthers have actually been one player away versus the number of times the Panthers braintrust thought they were one player away is... significant.

I mean the argument could be made we were an actual number two CB away in 2015 from a Superbowl, Peyton didn't throw Norman's way at all and he had some lame duck balls a more skilled CB would have picked 6'd

    • This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY. 
    • The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.
    • I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
