  1. 1. Do you trust Reich to find us (and develop) a franchise QB?



Recommended Posts

one would hope that Reich would be able to recognize the folly in bringing in quarterbacks to patch holes and will want to draft and develop one of his own. the situation in Indy was not his fault. Luck bailing on football left that squad a QB away from doing some great things and they tried their best to make it happen with 2 QB who were just too used up to make it happen.

Run with Corral & Darnold this year, transition year an’ all. There’s a better ‘develop or decide’ option than jumping at this year’s crop, I don’t think they’re an upgrade over said current..

Rather take a beast BPA in the 1st, TE perhaps?, and watch the story unfold. There’s a solid foundation in place, rather gamble on next years crop of qbs than the meh group this go round..

Repeating the same steps over and over and expecting a different result.

 

We Need A Franchise QB! Not A Vet Bridge QB!

 

It's amazing how people keep bringing up these names. Carr is taking this team nowhere. 

You also dont want to ruin who you draft. Its best to have  rookie and vet and if the rookie isnt ready, have the vet play until he is.

The team trading draft capital for Derek Carr would be an unmitigated disaster and would show that neither the front office or the new Head Coach have learned from their numerous past disasters.

A bridge QB is fine but the plan 100% needs to be find your QB in the draft and get him, that is the single most important item on the list right now and will determine a lot of our future.

Tepper is clearly frustrated by the rotation of Quarterbacks in and I would be astounded if he hired someone who was telling him we should do the exact same thing.

Go get a Brissett that knows the system and would be comfortable being the backup from Day 1 if it turned out like that, but dont trade draft capital or spend big money on another refurb QB when that was the cause of so much pain for all parties involved.

    • 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.
    • 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.
