I thought Sam looked fine for where he is (former top 5 pick, awful past team/coaching, with the panthers for just over a year). I still think he has potential.

Baker was largely bad, but I attribute that to being so new with the Panthers and having so much catch up to do. He obviously oozes with escapability, gamebreaker talent and a live arm, but his decision making needs a lot of work. 
 

Didn’t see enough of Matt to get a read. His ball flies with zip like Darnold/Mayfield’s.

PJ definitely had the best day. Had the least reps, but the most successful outcomes. 

 

I was about to say how did Corral do in your opinion? I just cant really tell. Would be nice if he could be the future and we don't have to draft one again next year, or god forbid another retread.

how bout a big Huddle thank you to @falconlynx for all the updates!  And everyone else who helped.  I'm really busy today but having a chance to see all the action in my downtime has been a blessing.  So good to have football back.

Thank you Captain Morgan. Hadn’t done this for us before, but it was quite fun. 
 

Will be at Fanfest as well, but I’ll likely be more engaged with the family that night.

Devils advocate: What if it’s because he’s actually playing to his potential and he legit beats out Baker/Matt and doesn’t crumble after 4 weeks like last year? 

Sam is doing exactly what he did last camp.  Checking down.   Playing it safe.   We saw what that lead to in season…..the worst season of his career. 

Sam isn’t a NFL QB.

4 years of tape (actually more if you count college) say you have a better chance of winning the mega millions tonight

 

If Baker loses to mayfield for the job then we are in a real world of poo

Yeah, just not enough sample size.

Crazy how few reps Matt and PJ get compared to the first two.

I bet our best chance to see Matt is going to be late in preseason games. I’d love to see him get a shot with the starters….

Once again people need to chill. Yesterday seemed like a practice was about getting the arm loose and making throws. Today the defense came out and gave them the clamp. This is normal and part of the process. All QBs shrugged and that was the point. They have to get use to the pressure.

There just isn't anything in his football career that indicates that scenario being likely. 

He just is what he is.

I think it’s also important for CMC that he has a QB that can stretch the field.

For starters, it will open up more room for him underneath but also not getting hit 20 times a week should do wonders for his body.

Indirectly, Sam could end CMC’s career if he doesn’t learn to spread the ball around.

I’m still not sold on Mayfield yet but the fact that he isn’t keying in on CMC or another back or tight end every snap is nice.

Nothing wrong with viewing things with Panthers tinted shades sometimes but this is maybe you should talk to a therapist levels of delusion. The Jets and their fans already accepted who he is. To look at that and not only say "yeah I'll take more" but go on to say "yeah he could be the guy of the future" is honestly insanity.

Reality is, Mayfield is still brand new to this offense, including the players, coaches, and playbook. He will get more comfortable as camp goes along. He still has nearly a month and a half to get ready for Game 1. He will be the starter.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F  
    • You gonna make me post Stank before every game?  I kid, I kid. 
    • Final Avs 9 Wild 6. Defense never entered the building lol.
