The Panthers have first round grades on 3 QBs.

The Steelers are gonna sit right there and draft Sam Howell and in three years everyone is going to be looking back and realizing how badly the rest of the league botched this QB draft class while the Huddle is still breaking down upcoming QB prospects because we're still flailing in the wind.

I personally think he is the sleeper here--had he had 2020 in 2021, he'd be in the top 10 discussion.

It is unreal how he is not talked about. People / evaluators seem to forget what he lost as weapons and OL after 2020. It will be interesting to see how his handlers spin his Pro Day and present him

The NFL does this sometimes. They convince themselves of a narrative  - good or bad - and just can't overcome it. The DJ Moore/Calvin Ridley WR class comes to mind. Oh, it's such a bad WR class. No elite prospects. Blah, blah, blah. I'm sitting here like WTF are y'all talking about? There's two elite WR prospects on this class y'all just have your blinders on and can't see it. 

That's this QB class IMO. Howell is a top 10 QB. Willis is a top 10 QB based on sheer raw talent. Corral and Pickett are typical mid to late 1st round type QBs. The only thing this QB class is missing is that slam dunk "once in a decade" type prospect and people are just all fuged up because of that. It's weird to watch.

If we go this route and get Corral, that's fine, I just think the need to take the swing in the draft, and if it doesn't work out, take your new coach and do it again next year. Swing till you get the hit. Heavy QB classes come and go, it's not always guaranteed that next year will be better.

“Those in the Panthers organization view Malik Willis, Kenny Pickett and Matt Corral as the top quarterbacks in this draft class, worthy of first-round picks" 

 

From the observer. 

 

Expect a trade back and a selection of one of these guys.

Trade back would be best case scenario. Just don’t take them at #6

    • I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.
    • I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
