If Matt Rhule and Fitterer were smart they'd get behind Matt Corral. If Rhule came out and proclaimed that with the drafting of Ickey and Corral the future was now the rebuild he dreamed of was complete, people could believe in that. If him and Ickey do good people will give you time to refine that. You bring in another reject and go 7-10, we're still in Jetsville the bottom not having prioritized developing perhaps our best investment to date.

I'm sorry to those I just can't agree with when it comes to letting Corral sit. I just don't think sitting does anything reps won't do better. If his game translates to the NFL you've got an Aaron Rodgers type of QB. Perfect QB for McAdoo. 

Out of all the football conferences in college the SEC has the top talent, no debating that. THAT'S who Matt Corral was beating, throwing on, running on. The biggest, the fastest.  Once he adjusts to the speed of the game he'll be equal to Mac Jones or better. To do that you must be in the game.

LET'S GO!

You also can't expect him to learn anything but bad habits sitting behind Darnold or Mayfield. Also people wanting him to have a year in the system,we might not even have the same coaching staff this time next year, he needs to at minimum get some meaningful minutes to get a taste of what it's really like on the field. Not 2 minutes of garbage time at the end of a blowout type minutes, starting or replacing a QB in a close game minutes

Corral needs game speed reps against a defense that spent all week preparing for him. The only way that happens if he's the starter. Maybe not week one, but it needs to happen 

That is the best way for him to learn the game and for us to learn about him. He'll have some painfully bad moments. What you're hoping for is to see enough good to know he's your guy going forward and you can put you draft picks and cap into other areas going forward.

Yep. We’re drafting high enough next year to get another QB regardless of who starts. Let’s see who Corral is so we know if we need to take advantage of next years deep QB class.

Unless we end up with a top 5 pick again, I seriously doubt we are going to draft a QB if Corral sits on the pine this year. 

The O-line is much improved, at least on paper, and he won't be running for his life like David Carr.  

Put him in, let him learn as he goes.  Most 1st year starters struggle at the beginning of their careers.  I would rather Corral get his learning done during a season where we are not suppose to be competitive.  It would be a shame if we put together a great team and than we throw Corral out there for the first time.

Please end this Golden Corral madness.

Not until he's named the starter and Sam the veteran backup. 

What's really annoying is watching the Panthers fumble the bag at QB over and over and over.

Fielding another used up has been in over your admitted top QB on the board that year. That's madness.

This is a movement.

This is not going to happen with a coach/GM that are on a short leash.

2014 was close

Go and watch the 2010 offense.  It was no where near that bad.

I mean the nickname. Surely we can fix our guy up with something better than a buffet chain.

They may have no other choice.  Cleveland is still asking too much for Mayfield and Corral may give them a better opportunity to win than Darnold. 

Don’t get me wrong, I’m excited to see Corral. I just don’t see Fitt and Rhule rolling with Darnold or a rookie in what might be their final go-round.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Carolina Panthers R1 (1): QB Bryce Young, Alabama R2 (39): WR Jonathan Mingo, Ole Miss R3 (80): EDGE DJ Johnson, Oregon R4 (114): G Chandler Zavala, NC State R5 (145): S Jammie Robinson, Florida State Day 1: Carolina moved up to No. 1 overall and secured their potential franchise quarterback. Despite concerns about his size, Young was the top QB on the PFF big board, and his 92.9 passing grade led all players at the position over the past two seasons. Day 2: Mingo was one of the biggest risers in the pre-draft process and finds himself in Carolina to team up with top pick Bryce Young. While his production in college was spotty, he has a good blend of size and athleticism to like his fit here with the Panthers. Not to mention, he flashed often on tape between unbelievable body adjustments and clean wins at the line of scrimmage. This is one of the bigger reaches so far based on the PFF big board, with Johnson coming in at 237th overall. The Panthers are taking a swing on Johnson’s athleticism on the edge (4.49-second 40-yard dash at 261 pounds). He’s a 24-year-old prospect who recorded fewer than 50 career pressures on 786 defensive snaps in college. Day 3: The Panthers have invested in improving their offensive line over the last several seasons and continue to do so with Zavala here. He played just over 1,000 snaps in the FBS but earned an 86.5 PFF pass-blocking grade last season and adds some explosiveness to the interior of their offensive line. Carolina adds another defensive back for new defensive coordinator Eviro Ejero to deploy in a deep secondary unit. Robinson’s 16.0% forced incompletion rate illustrates his playmaking ability at the catch point when targeted. He plays fast, but that sometimes results in a missed tackle, with his 7.4% missed tackle rate on the high side. DRAFT GRADE: B+

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      CAROLINA PANTHERS R1 (6) — G Ikem Ekwonu, NC State R3 (94) — QB Matt Corral, Mississippi R4 (120) — LB Brandon Smith, Penn State R6 (189) — Edge Amare Barno, Virginia R6 (199) — T Cade Mays, Tennessee R7 (242) — CB Kalon Barnes, Baylor Day 1: The board couldn’t have fallen much better for Carolina, with all three of the top offensive tackle prospects still on the board. The Panthers opted for the top run-blocker in the class in Ekwonu. The N.C. State tackle earned PFF run-blocking grades above 85.0 in all three of his college seasons, with grades above 90.0 in each of the last two years. It’s worth noting that the Panthers didn’t trade back to add another pick or two, given that they aren’t on the clock again until the fourth round. Day 2: Corral wouldn’t have been a good pick in Round 1, but he provides value late on Day 2. Corral’s offense at Ole Miss made his projection to the NFL a little more difficult, as it was full of RPOs and simplistic reads. Despite the quarterback-friendly offense, Corral was consistently on time and delivered accurate throws while showing off an exceptional deep ball. Corral’s 2021 season took a nosedive midseason due to injury. His 91.1 PFF grade through Week 7 was the fourth-highest in the FBS, but that mark fell 20 grading points to 70.6 from Week 8 on. Day 3: Smith is an athletic project, but he’s a project well worth taking at this stage of the draft. The production profile isn’t overly impressive. Smith earned PFF grades below 60.0 in each of the last two years at Penn State. But the NFL is always going to look for 6-foot-4, 250-pound linebackers who test above the 90th percentile in the 40-yard dash, broad jump and short shuttle. Now, the Panthers just need to figure out how to use him. Draft Grade: A
