Not really seeing anything screaming #1 with a bullet. I never really bought into the narrative about this QB class in the first place though. I'd take Hendon with one of our 2nds if he's there. Maybe Levis but I really don't like the offense he's in so hard to judge 

Levis is in a pro style offense, what offense were you thinking he would need to be in to like it?

I mean the actual play calling I've seen, not the system. Mainly last game where I was trying to get a good look at him and they ran the ball like 50 times. I know they had the lead but it's hard to judge. Vs Tennessee this week should be a good Hooker vs Levis evaluation game. Kentucky should be forced to throw down field more

Yeah, they arent running an offense thats about throwing the ball 40-50 times. Kentucky had their BYE already, and Levis has 164 attempts. Ohio state hasnt had their BYE yet, and Stroud has thrown 190 times. Young's bye week is this week and he is at 221 attempts. They are in the same range.

Levis is running a variation of the McVay/Shanahan offense. His OC's for the past two years come from the Rams and 49ers (Liam Cohen, Rich Scangarello). Him and Young (Bill O'Brien) have NFL guys calling plays out of NFL playbooks.

Ohio State has had their BYE. It was the week before they played Iowa.

There’s no comparison with Fields beyond the same school. Stroud throws a better ball and Fields was a one read QB. Stroud is the total package. 

It's just lazy analytics.  Is Hurts like Jones, Tua, or Young?  Is the current Clemson QB anything like Lawrence?  Be better people.

    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
    • Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
