“If you have a QB you like, You take a shot there”

If that's really his strategy then either they had some serious dirt on Fields or Fitts ain't callin' the shots.

Incidentally, I agree.  If you find a QB you believe in, you draft him if he's there.  Doesn't matter where you are in the draft.

Or he answered that question in his quote.  "If you find a QB you like."

Ask him why such an amazing GM prospect came to work as a yes man for an idiot HC next. 

Still overated around here but he at least speaks NFL PR vs feet in mouth Rhule. This guy actually traded for Sam Darnald after 3 years of NFL film. 

If he's a yes man, then he only did what his boss wanted him to do. 🤷‍♂️

That said, I'm all for either cleaning house and starting completely over or letting Fitt have a go as the guy in charge. If Fitt takes over and crashes, it'll just add to the amusement I get from watching the Panthers burn. If he succeeds or Tepper cleans house, it'll restore some hope I have as a fan. I win either way. 😁

I don't see anything too crazy to read into.  When teams find a QB they want, they don't play some trade back and hope they still land them game.  They choose the QB they want if they're in position to.  We very well could be at 6 if they peg one of these guys franchise level talent and not just game managers. Unsure if they like any that much...yet.  

I don't think many teams are or will become enamored with any of these QB prospects so we very well could end up with one of the big-3 OTs.  He's simply saying, if there's a QB they like, they'll get him.

Howell or Pickett, come on down. You're the next QB of the Panthers. Pray to God or whoever you wish to protect you from the versatile line we put in front of you.

He mentioned Willis and Pickett by name and then said something about the other quarterbacks that were there as well.

    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
