As one of the OG Corral Homers on here, and still coming off of the high of last weekend, here's my bold prediction:

Corral is starting by week 1. Why? It's his swagger and mojo. It's going to infect this team. And then you'll see the improvements in his footwork and that arm in training camp is gonna have yall screaming "holy poo."

Darnold will be one of the best backups in the league this year. And next year he will be someone else's backup. 

I'm living and dying on the Matt Corral train. As long as he doesn't get hurt, he's going to electrify for a long long time.

After watching actual Corral game tape from last season, they need to get him alot of time to develop down field accuracy. His short to medium game is fine, but he tends to over throw the deep ball. For him to be a NFL top ten in the future....got to get that deep threat to develop.

Yeah, but at least he has the arm strength to work with. It would be way different if he was leaving them short or putting too much air under it trying to get it down field.

Christian McCaffrey was the most exciting Panthers rookie since then. Luke Kuechly? I'm sure that there are more. 

Quarterback is not our problem. Offensive line play was our issue. So on that topic I'd say Icke is the most exciting since the Panthers left tackle has been hot garbage since Gross retired.

Worst starting QB in the NFL in back to back seasons yeah quarterback was not our problem lol.

Put him with nfl wrs and he will get that timing down.

I said this in a different thread, but I like Corral's leadership ability over Darnold's already. If he's that much better then I hope they make the switch quickly. I'm just worried about who is going to be getting the #1 reps and who the hell is going to lead that QB room. They need a professional clipboard holder in there asap.

You're right, but I think it's just a timing issue.  He didn't attempt to throw a lot of deep balls in that offense (especially after Moore got drafted), so I think it's correctable.  As long as it's not a deep zone, overthrows are much safer than under...

Does anyone know when all of the draftees will be introduced? I think in the past they have had them all in Charlotte and had pictures. At that same time they were shown with their new jersey 

Most likely later this week.  Excited for the introductory conferences.  Corral will be a fun watch.

The problem there is if Sam Dawnold manages to win a few games before getting exposed. Then we have a BC situation all over again with Corral. 

What if Coral starts then he ends up sucking then Darnold comes in after a few games and plays well? Doubt it happens but it’s always possible.

Corral needs to play this year. If not from week 1 then at least 2/3 of the season. We really need to have some idea of what we have with him so we know if QB is still a major need next offseason. Not saying he has to win OROY or anything, but we can't go into next offseason without having some idea of what we have.

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?

      LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.

      After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
