Which end of that bet are you on to be clear?  You have Lance within 10 or the other guy?  I'm certain Lance goes within 10 of Fields, that's like taking candy from a sleeping baby.  Heck, the better bet would have been which one of the two gets drafted first.

Lance to 49ers is picking up a TON of steam.

lol, I just just replying to our bet in another post. Im betting Lance gos within 10 picks of Fields. Granted this was agreed about one month+ ago. Not joking, I wanted to bet Lance would go before Fields, but knew almost no one else had that belief. Had to get some spread help. Varking had a strong belief......

I still think Jones gos to the 49ers, not buying the heat effect that 2nd pro-days form Lance/fields have. Hell I still can not believe 49ers traded three 1sts and a 3rd for the right to draft Mac "******" Jones.

Either Detroit or us will trade back to a team wanting Lance if the 49ers or Falcons don't take him.  He absolutely does not slide past #8.  If Sewell is gone, we may even draft him (fingers crossed). 🙂

No one can predict the future and crazy things happen all the time, but I agree with you. I thought if fields gos 2nd(at best), theres still no chance lance is around til 12....no chance at all(again this bet is month+ old) I was driving the lance-to-panthers spaceship til Darnold happened. Huge fan of what would have been if Lance landed in carolina. I was going to make a real panthers to SB (within 5 years) prediction if they landed lance.

It hard to keep up with you two--do either of you think Jones at #3?

It's 50/50.  I think the 49ers loved Jones' stat line and film, however, once they realized what Lance could be in a year or two, it made them reevaluate.   Remember, Jimmy-G is the guy THIS year.  Jones would be the guy if he had to start this September, but he's not.  In a year's time I think Lance and Jones are on equal footing with Lance having the higher ceiling long-term.  While Jones still may be the pick, I don't think it's a slam dunk anymore.

I think a great bet for someone to take on would be the 49ers qb selection....

Uh, have you seen my avatar?  Still clinging to a sliver of hope it may happen, but only if Sewell is gone.  As much as I would like Lance in a Panthers' uniform, with Darnold here, LT is priority unless he's already been drafted.

Im aware, going to be a change a coming....If I remember correctly you where on the lance bus very early. I was in many threads, singing the lance praise. Me, personally, after the darnold i switched gears to wanting Sewell, Pitts, or Chase. I understand wanting going to the QB well til you get one, just feel its too much for this panthers team to invest 8th overall at QB. I dont buy the fritterer bluff about drafting a QB. You can have the spaceship, I transfer the right to drive to you.

Yep, since February...2019.  Found him while scouting for last draft.  I knew we would be picking somewhere around #10, give or take a few selections (predicted a 6-10 season).  So my hopes were high that we would be in range to get him since Bridgewater was just that.  What I didn't anticipate was us ditching Teddy after just one season and having to immediately replace him.  That's where my Lance hopes started to fade.  I knew Trey had to 'red shirt' one season.  Once we got Darnold, my focus turned to LT, just as yours did.  Now, If Sewell is gone, I still wouldn't mind Lance.

Right now I'm at--in order as they are available to us:

1-Sewell

2-Lance

3-Slater

4-Trade back for a corner

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
