Just doing a little research on Pickett.  His entire line were redshirt seniors.  That has to play a factor in his season.  If I had the time I might do a deep dive but this is what I found on the surface

Dude was in the same offense for so long him having a glow up season isn't surprising..

I just have a problem with the fact dude is jumping from Undrafted FA to "we should get him in the top 10 of the draft" in a year..

Ppl keep bringing up Burrows without context... Burrows was a transfer from O state that got his opportunity later in his college career.. Pickett has been the man since he got to Pitt and just sucked for 4 years..

And you're right Wison was a 1 year wonder.. 

If it wasn't for the outrageous arm talent and athleticism and age .. I would look at him like Pickett..

Yes for sure. Wilsons one year wonder was a glimpse into potential because he was still pretty young... Pickett's feels like a college culmination... Which is much less enticing in a pro prospect to me imo.

I don't hate Pickett but I'm just so much more interested in other prospects.

It's also worth noting that altho I agree Burrows shows how a QB can have a meteoric rise and be worth if after a one year wonder season... Burrows season was insane. It wasn't just a really great college season like Pickett. He had one of the most impressive college seasons of all time lol. 65 total TDs, 5.7k passing yards (>6k total), and 6 ints. Insanely productive...

He was also on one of the more loaded college offenses of all time.  That helps those numbers you reference just a little.  How many receivers from that team are now playing in the NFL?  Two first round picks and a second.  Several offensive linemen and tight ends.  They had almost an NFL level offense going up against College players. 

 

Meanwhile, there is a pretty decent chance that not a single Pitt receiver will be in the league.  Their tight end might.  But its a given that Pickett had a lot less talent around him.  Imagine how good Pickett would look with that level of talent around him?

May be an image of 2 people and text that says 'Aaron Rodgers is playing behind an offensive line with 4 backups and a rookie. He's missing his #1 slot WR and the 2020 TD leader at TE. He is also playing on a broken toe. If he is not your clear MVP right now than you're simply just a hater. 12 22:37-1/2/22-TwitterforAndroid 22:37 1/2/22 Twitter for Android'

...this is why QB and scheme are so important...pretty sure Garoppolo is going to be able to hang with our oline when he gets here.. if we don't get ride of these baylor/temple hacks in coaching and players...we'll never have a chance...

Addison is going to have a chance to show what he can do in the NFL for sure.

As to Pickett... Impossible to say, because he didn't have it.  We also have to consider the caliber of opponents too. Burrows detonated Georgia and Clemson and probably had one of the best games against a Saban defense in a long time...

True.

Which is a big reason it is so hard to determine how well a college player, especially a qb, will do in the NFL, where the talent is more equally distributed.  Which is also why I won't mind if we take Pickett.  He might not be good, or he might be the next Drew Brees.

Of course, we have been relatively lucky the two times we picked a qb in the first.  Kerry Collins was a adequate qb, (although not a good person).  And Cam was very good.  Lets hope our next first round pick nets similar results, but the next guy is able to stick around a little longer.

To be truthful, if we have a new staff I'm okay with Pickett.

I just... I don't trust Rhule with ANY young player, let alone a QB.

Joe Burrow is a 1 year wonder  1 year older than Sam Darnold.. It took him 5 years to have that 1 good year.

This would be a horrible pick for us for many reasons.. Beyond the major red flags of hes older his arm isn't elite, he is a okay athlete and it took him 5 years to be a draft worthy prospect..

 

Hmm 

Kenny Pickett is a 1st rounder in any draft. Strongly dislike this entire argument. The tape always tells the story.

Usually agree with you but not this time...

Until this year tape  any other years tape says don't touch until the 6th round.. And when those hand measurement come out he will drop in this draft...

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      Just as we won those close games we could have just as easily lost them. So the jury is out on if we were more lucky than good ( see the sweep by the saints) Were moving forward on paper. And how badly dont we all want to see us back to at least Above average form. Its about time.

      Ranked Panthers as the Best this year!!

      By frankw · Posted

      If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
