Watching Zach Wilson play reminds me EXACTLY of Corral

Yeah, Corral looked awful in preseason. Yeah, Rhule and company likely did a horrible job developing him. We'll have to see how he looks next year but we're crazy if we make any draft or roster decisions based on Matt Corral. If we think a franchise QB is available we need to go get him. If Corral balls out, awesome. If he's a total flop, oh well. Make the roster moves so that either way or anything in between we've prepared for.

Why posters on here( @DaveThePanther2008 )simply dont understand this just blows my mind

I'd say this is pretty much where most of us are at.

You've got a couple of extremes who think they already Corral will be great or be terrible, but the reality is we'll just have to wait and see.

Too short, small to be an NFL QB, quick but not NFL fast, CAN'T EVEN COMPLETE A PASS!! Let's not go through this all over again no way in hell he should even have a job next year let alone be starting for this team

Corral...and his 15 practice snaps and maybe 20 snaps in Preseason? He wasn't given an opportunity to do much of anything. But he has twice the arm of Zach and he is extremely accurate in the mid-range which is something Zach is not.

Corral looked like complete crap the little we saw him play in preseason.

Check.

Does that mean he is gonna be crap the next time we see him? 

Not definitively.

It will play out how it plays out and no one really knows for sure what that will look like. 

People claiming he is a starting or franchise NFL qb are doing that off of their hopeful imagination and not much else.

This is balanced and fair.  I'll allow it.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
