A Corral Reminder

No, IDGAF if you don't think Corral is our future. He's getting better, and he will be in the mix regardless of rather you like it or not. For those taking a definitive stance on Corral based largely on Rhule's ineptitude, you will eat crow. You will eat crow.

Corral (foot) is no longer in a walking boot as he continues to recover from his September surgery, ESPN's David Newton reports.

Corral will still miss the 2022 season, but his current progress from the Lisfranc injury he suffered during the preseason could set him up for a relatively healthy offseason. As someone the Panthers traded up to select in the third round of this year's draft, Corral represents a significant long-term piece for the franchise, which presently carries quarterbacks Baker Mayfield (ankle), Sam Darnold (ankle) and PJ Walker all on expiring contracts. Although a first-round quarterback selection is certainly a possibility next spring as the team sits with a [now 2-6] record at the moment, Corral at least offers an investment to carry over at the position.

He faced insurmountable odds as it was and now those odds are astronomical since he had a major injury

He deserves a shot at the starting job, no question about it. I’m not super hopeful about it but the odds are just as good to draft a bust at the top of the 1st round 

There certainly aren't any Cams or Lucks in the draft from what I've seen. No Burrows or Mahomeses either.

As a fan of the team, I hope all our draft picks become Pro Bowlers.

In this case, the odds are against it.  In general, non-first round QB's hit at a rate of about 10%.

That chance should in no way influence our willingness to draft a QB this offseason.  If we are picking and a guy we think is a franchise guy is on the board, we take him.  If by some miracle we end up with two starting caliber QB's, we trade one for more draft capital.

“whether you like it or not” is like the siren song of people who know their at their last stand 

nobody cares about whether or not you liked Matt corral and made huddle posts about him

if the team drafts a 1st round QB, he will be given the reigns.

He is getting a shot regardless but I'm not holding my breath on him coming back and going super nova. One of his biggest concers was durability coming out so looking bad in this preseason isn't what makes me tepid on hope with him at this point. If he can come back next year and just be available then I would be happy to see what he can do.

Getting a shot for what?   Like Growl says, if/when we draft a guy in the first he is going to be giving the reigns.  He will at worst split the first team reps with a vet and MC will just get the scraps.  No sane team puts their first round qb in a competition.

In camp and preseason. There are zero guarantees and we may need him. Look at Lance. Also having a valuable 2nd QB would be killer. So he is getting a shot. I'm just not sure he can make it into a season at this point not on IR.

Like Robert Saleh, I'm taking receipts, motherfuger.

    • Things like this happen everyday. We live in a social media driven society where loyalty is a foreign concept.
    • If you draft a guy who is healthy and has no concerns about that whatsoever and he goes out and tears his ACL in his first few games in the regular season on a physical play that's a freak accident. But when you trade up to draft an RB who is already rehabbing from a recent ACL tear and he spends the next several months continuing his rehab only to tear the same ACL again after less than a handful of regular season carries in a non contact circumstance that is no freak accident. That is a textbook example of why you do not do what we did. Particularly for what is now a plug and play position. And when you have the highest paid OL in the league over the next two years. None of that makes any logical sense. Legitimately it is and was some Scott Fitterer type foolishness. Now as for XL. The guy has not been committed to his craft. I think anyone with eyes on the situation can and would recognize that. However the warning signs were there. One season of legit production raw prospect that we knew would take time to develop etc. But Morgan and Bryce Young's own father were very high on him. I think in some capacity the reality of our limitation at QB is entering into the equation. Even TMac got a lot of flak over the course of his rookie season for not being able to haul in all of Bryce's passes. At the end of the day our fourth year QB also needs to do his part to maximize the talent we have available. As far as this year. Again. WR round 1 boils down to where are we going to get the touches for the rookie? That would require eating into not only our 8th overall picks touches but also our #2 WR whom oh yeah by the way was UNDRAFTED. I am happy to discuss WR prospects here. I was thrilled we invested what we did last year in TMac because it needed to be done and it made sense from all angles. But nowhere is it written in stone that you cannot draft a good or great WR outside of the first round. Except in the Panthers building apparently. That is not a good reflection on our scouts and front office let me tell ya. Because there's no way on this earth we are going to get back to relevancy and legitimate contender status if we can't pick some gems in the later rounds. Simple and plain.
    • This is pretty accurate our offense needs more juice. I love Cooker but he’s not enough XL ummm we’ll see this year hopefully the third year WR thing hits him and he plays better but still not enough. Honestly we need look at the Eagles they just adds Wicks and Hollywood Brown to that core. That shows the level of talent needed to compete at a championship level this coming season. And this below is the real problem KC doesn’t seem to add that much to our offense. We Makai Lemon or defense at 19
