Okay Huddle GM’s. Slow week with news so I figured I would open up a discussion on what YOU would rather do as GM of the Panthers if you had a choice. 

The Watson update threads were a thing of magic. The overall sense *at the time* was that the majority of posters here on the board were open to the idea of landing Watson. Knowing what we know now, would you rather have:

1. ( Watson/ vet LT) for the exact trade package the Browns gave up knowing that you have a top of the league franchise QB

OR

2. (Icky/Corral) even though we may have to endure another season of Darnold we get to keep future assets/picks and young players. Much less known with Corral as a franchise QB but you keep your cap/draft picks for the future.

Icky/Corrall.

Who knows what these future players could be. Little Sewell, another WR1 to replace Robby next year, a true 4-3 DE.

Now we also dont have to pay him $40mil a year for a QB and tie up all your salary while having Brian Burns contract coming up too. I'm glad it worked out the way it did.

I could not have been more pleased (or surprised) with how our 2022 NFL Draft turned out.

Ickey / Corral. 

If we had Watson, we'd be the ones awkwardly trying to get anything we could for Darnold like the Browns are stuck trying to get anything for Mayfield. Mayfield is considered a better player by the league. We'd be getting even less interest in Darnold.

We'd be hoping that BC can be a starting LT and pencil Deonte Brown or Elfein at LG.

So Icky has to earn the starting job and Corral does too? 

Doesn't one help the other? Way to metally coach up your stars.

Everybody already knows their role on a professional football team.

They know who's a starter and who's a role player why play these silly games? Why waste time and money?

You take Icky and you put him on that damn field and tell him "you're going to be the best tackle in Panthers history if you put in the work and learn".

You give Matt the friggin' football from day one and you tell him "We brought you here to lead this team. YOU are the future. Put in the work and learn and YOU could be the best QB in Panthers history".

The future shall not be OVERRHULED!

He's a college junior that ran an RPO offense. He is simply not ready to be thrust in an NFL game day 1.

      I mean, he's a professional athlete.  What you think as a fan vs what he should think as a player are completely different.  Being bad doesn't mean you should lack confidence in yourself, and really that is true in all forms of life.  Do everything you want to do with confidence. Justin Fields sucks, but does he ever play like someone who doesn't believe in his own abilities?   Obviously you need more than confidence to be a high-level NFL player, and Bryce will never be that.  But he could still create 2-3 extra plays a game if he allowed himself to play more "free" like he did in the second half of last season.  The fact he refuses to use his legs to pick up yards nowadays hurts this team.  Simple things like that would go a long way for us, even if not for him.

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I've always thought it odd that the QB is the only guy in the roster who carries a record. If a RB puts up 1200 yards but the team sucks then everyone still says the RB had a good year. If a QB puts up good numbers put the D is atrocious and the win loss record isn't great due to that then the narrative is that the QB can't win. Now that we're finding a way to win with suddenly dominant D and dominate running game people are trying to shift to this "Bryce is just a winner" narrative while he puts up bottom of the league numbers while near the top of the league in turnovers. It's just funny to watch.
