Why is PJ Walker EVEN on the team?

PJ is MILES ahead of Corral and it showed. People really need to drop the delusions with MC. Hating on PJ is popular around here, but the guy has literally proven he can win games as a backup. But no,  “muh Corral is getting reps stolen from him”

 

Yeah about that. I'm fine with PJ being here as a backup...if Darnold is gone.

 

The point is you drafted Corral with the intention of him learning. He won't learn poo being behind 3 QBs (2 of which wouldn't be thought to start on any other roster in the league).

So if we're keeping PJ, adios Sam. If we're keeping Sam, adios PJ. As it stands, I'd rather have Sam as I think he's the better of the 2 at his best. PJ at his best is a good backup. Sam at his best is a competent starter. This has been shown in actual games last season. It's like saying Derek Anderson could have started when he got us wins. No. He just played backup well. Wasn't risky, protected the ball, did enough to not lose. Same as PJ.

Rhule would cut Baker before he cut Walker.

He is going to have to cut PJ or Darnold. He can’t keep 4 QBs on the roster. That’s just a waste of a roster spot and stupid. Damn it that’s exactly what he is going to do isn’t it???

It’s not exactly like saying DA should have started. I don’t want PJ to potentially be a starter here. It’s just a tricky situation that Rhule put himself in. I’m pushing back against people that believe Corral can be a savior for the franchise. It’s Jimmy Clausen all over again

Maybe but we'd be dumb to keep 4 QBs longer than another week. Darnold or PJ gotta go. Corral has through next off-season to show he's coming along and can take the show over from Baker or he can be gone too.

Still think we are going to keep 4. PJ as a “special teams spot” in hopes that we can move darnold for something once injuries start happening to QB’s.

People sure are upset that Matt Corral looks exactly like the 3rd round draft pick that he is lol. I would honestly rather have PJ than him. 

I thought he looked decent compared to those around him.  He is a rookie and most of the guys he was playing with won't be on the Panthers roster.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
