Why so much optimism for Corral?

Seems a good portion of this board think he may the answer to our QB woes or at minimum upset that Baker/Darnold will take away reps from him, hence impeding his ability to develop into a franchise QB.The odds of him becoming a franchise QB hover around 1% or less based on his draft position.

In the last 20 years you have:

Dak Prescott drafted 135th overall in 2016 8th QB taken that year.

Derek Carr drafted 36th overall in 2014      4th QB taken that year 

Russell Wilson drafted 75th overall in 2012 6th QB taken that year

Kirk Cousins drafted 104th overall in 2012  8th QB taken that year 

One could reason all of those QB’s would have been taken even earlier if not pushed down by higher rated prospects.

Outside of them you don’t have a single QB anywhere near earning the label of a franchise QB or even a good to great starter drafted outside of the 1st round.

So why is that so many seem convinced we struck Gold with Corral?

cause being a pessimistic turd sucks. Is he gunna be successful? idk, but ima be optimistic about it cause it sure beats being a miserable fug like a few on this board. using their panther fandom as their identity and relying on panthers success to make them happy.

I love Corall and I think he’s a great prospect/great dude(regardless of how the media portrays him.) But am I expecting him to save this franchise without ever seeing him play a snap in the NFL? fug no, FYI to everyone butthurt we got Baker, he has proven to be a better QB in the NFL then a third round rookie who hasn’t touched the NFL landscape.

We’ve been hypnotized. That one buffoon has posted the same thing with the Golden Corral picture a dozen times in every thread since the draft. You can’t help but to believe eventually.

Oooooh. I get to call names too? Because some of you got some sht coming.

Stay classy fool!

He has some nice traits like arm strength, quickness, and a very fast release. He also saw success in a tough conference usually outmatched against more deep teams. He also seems coachable. Dropped his INT % a lot from 2020 to 2021. Honestly he just needs to bulk up and see if he can learn to run a NFL offense. He checks a lot of boxes despite where he was drafted.

I am optimistic about Corral and think he will a chance to show what he can do. I like the fact we aren't rushing him along out of  necessity. I like we brought in veteran competition for Darnold to start the season. We need to keep swinging for the fences until we get our man.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      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.
