Best hope for Sam is to be picked up by KC for their practice squad 3rd string QB and sit for a year or two.  Short of that he'll probably wash out of the NFL in the next year or so.

Don't underestimate the desperation of NFL teams looking for anything resembling QB help.

And Sam is not Practice Squad fodder like PJ.  

He'll end up on some team as their backup.

Just not sure if it will be ours again (you never know with Tepper and Fitterer)....

Chances are good that Sam will end up someone's #2.

QB purgatory. This is just where we are, along with plenty of other franchises. There's truly no way out that I can find right now. The Commanders have been here for decades. Had we lost a few more games there was potentially a chance we could have secured Stroud or Young, but I just don't see it now. I do think the Bears will come off that pick, but not all the way down to 9 when they can probably settle somewhere else in the top 5 and come away with a defensive centerpiece like Carter or Anderson. 

I predict we maybe bring Sam back, as well as sign someone like Minshew/Garoppolo this offseason while trying to convince ourselves this time it will be different. But it won't. Depressing days.

I’d like to see what him and wilks could do with an upgrade at free safety, we should be in position to take a really excellent one and get over the hump and finally get that 8th win

How does that correlate to offense at all

No reason Sam can’t be signed back up money and play until he shits the bed 5 games in and we can play the rookie we trade up for and be a good back up for years to come.

It’s comical to me most Sam haters who can’t even see he is a decent back up thought PJ was better and even starter material lmao

Today, the WRs were not open.  Makes the qb look bad---not defending Sam, but I am defending Sam.

Had he been able to step up on that last throw to DJ that got picked it would have been a TD. Everyone here would be singing his praises.

Context is important.

    • Keep Pitman. I'll just take the 5th.
    • Another BPA themed one along with too much luck and impossible. 
    • You found out what I said months ago. Its sort of simple, if Panthers/you want a edge....*Panthers need a starting edge that gets hurries/sacs/press/etc* You almost have to use the 1st on edge. Just the way it is, of course some .01% Panthers get lucky and a 4th rounder shocks the world and becomes a day one starter.    I hate double talk, I also feel the Panthers need a top backup ala Addison or Al Wallace. Sooooo I do feel the need to add one in mid rounds if possible. I mean Pat Jones is on the MAYBE cut list, Panthers need space, he had a back injury and had little impact on field. So....... It goes back to adding talent, Panthers need talent, young talent.  OT- In my finding Im able to land a "stud" in round 2 more than 50% of the current rating. Even in the 3-5 rounds, (duke lad) Im able to get a OT within the top ava. I normally draft two OTs with one must play LT at some point. So I feel the draft is weak, but one of the strong point and it helps panthers is the OT spot. A few of those OT in mid, some will be starters this year.    I posted this else where, but here is the best outcome for the Panthers given the mock draft finding- 1st- Edge 2nd- LT/OT 3rd- ILB 4th- BPA/safety/center/WR/OT/etc 5th- OT/edge/C/DL/TE 5th- """" 6th- QB/Punter/safety/NB/OL The draft feels weak at 80% of the spots and teams Im sure are on this thought too. This past draft feels much better and deeper against the pool There is no Mike green or Nic scro in the late 2nd. There is no Evans sitting there in late 5th. There is not even a Prince level edge in the 3rd by my finding. I feel Panthers for sure new to draft 2 OTs and I high believe drafting 2 edges, one must be a 1st tho. Then the remaining 3 picks one late on QB, one on ILB, and the last one BPA. Honestly the FA looks bad too, the huge problem is the amount of needed for Panthers and there's not enough cap space or draft picks to fill even half the issue this season. Its goes back to just add the best talented players possible, *so long they do not play OG, strong safety, Dbrowns spot, and Tmacs spot. Add talent everywhere else, cause its lacking.......Even CB with horn struggling and Mike Jack on a one year deal, Thor coming off injury. There room for a mid or even 2nd rounder being(ewwww) use at CB. I prefer what I posted above. Happy drafting 45!!
