Cam never won. Before his shoulder fell off, did you feel any need to replace him? These are 2020/2021 draft picks. I was just saying that everyone would rather pick 32nd, but all we really need to stop all the draft pick talk in season is actually get a solid QB we don’t want to replace. That hasn’t been the case since the first half of 2018 when Cam was not the same. Once we get the solid QB, the rest is adding the right pieces through draft and FA but no top 5 pick talk. 

Replace him, no. But I always felt we needed more than JAG at backup QB due to his physical playing style and the NFLs lack of safety concerns when it came to him and head to head hits. His durability has been a concern since day 1 for a lot of people because of all the hits.

One place I hope the Panthers really reinforce is the offensive and defensive lines. The ability to run the ball successfully is demoralizing to the opponent. We need depth. 

They will need to draft a RB with one of those extra picks as well.  They need to add someone better than what is behind him and who can eventually replace Forman when he isn't cutting it anymore. At the rate they are using him it may not be too long.

As an Auburn fan, I’d love Tank Bigsby in the late 3rd/early 4th.

RBs are a dime a dozen these days. Unless you're like Rhule and let your wife pick our RBs.

As usual we’re going to win our way out of a top pick and be relegated to QB hell.

Let it go, man.  Teams don't lose for draft picks.  

Our defense is legit and who knows with some confidence from our QB we might just win out and really make things interesting.

There are 16 teams over .500.  Go join their bandwagon.

The 2023 RB free agent list is nice, more RB's available than teams desperate for one

Eh. If we end up in 8-12 range I wouldn’t care if we roll the dice on Levis. Also looks like the guy from Stanford is rising up the board. Tho I haven’t watched him at all this year.

Missing out on Young is not ideal. But if we decide not to go QB there’s plenty of players at positions of need that have potential. We could add to the O-Line with Skoronski, boast our Dline with Bresee, or add a playmaker in Johnston/Addison, or a TE in Mayer.

Also a few CBs ranked in the 8-15 range.  tbh the worst part of dropping might be there’s always one or two big names that drop into that late first early 2nd range.

I'd rather have PJ/Sam/Minshew, give Corral a year, draft BPA in the 1st. If that's a qb cool if not, graba Mccall or Ward/Hooker/Penix on day 2/3

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
