Because 32 isn’t old for a QB in the NFL anymore. The same people that says that it’s too old are the same people who want Cam back and he’s the same age but with a bum arm. 
 

I’m not saying it’s the best idea, but he fits Reich’s offense and I would rather do that than invest in the 3rd or 4th best QB in a below average draft class. 
 

I would take my chances with Carr, resign Burns, Bozeman and a couple depth FAs. And use the draft capital on guys like Mayer, Kincaid, Eichenburg, Campbell, Robinson, Johnson, etc.

@CamWhoaaCamsince you keep shitting on my posts tell me your idea? Wasn’t it to spend the 9th overall pick on this guy?

I mean Carr is probably getting cut from his team and the Bears are passing on the top QB in this class to keep Fields as their guy. It really helps to add context with stats. I think Carr is an average QB, but Fields is a 23 year old who was responsible for 25 TDs and around 3500 total yards with a terrible OL, Moony as his best WR, a defensive minded HC, in his 2nd offense in as many years, in the QB wasteland known as Chicago. 
Carr is about to be on the decline and Fields is just starting to flash (yeah he needs more work as a passer). I’d take Fields on that rookie contract for pick 9 over spending a large amount of money to acquire Carr all day long.

30 million a year!? And what if he is proven to be damaged goods? He'll be 32 when training camp rolls around. We can't afford to take an L on another high risk signing like that.

The salary cap went up. $30 mil/year is mediocre starter money now.

The Panthers typically have done what I didn't want them to do under Fitt. Loading up our defense with guys who will now want mega contracts is probably the worst part. Not trading Brian "no show" Burns, whose terrible performance against TB basically cost us the playoffs, still makes me cringe.

So what would be the worst thing we could reasonably do in the draft with FItt in control? I would be upset if we traded up for Will Levis. That makes me worry that Fitt is planning to do just that. He'll wait until Levis is near our pick and trade up, which would be exactly what I don't want to happen.

Are you planning on paying him in draft picks??

Obviously referring to if we get antsy and try to trade for him. I'm hopeful Fitterer has learned his lesson. He knows this is his last chance to get QB right. Can't do anything foolish though. This would fall under that.

No one is trading for him. Period.

Everyone in the NFL knows he is getting cut.

Tricky draft.  Feels like we need to take BPA to me.  None of the QBs in this draft are year one starters.  Corral sat for a year... if he kept his head in the game and in his books then maybe he can impress in camp?  

I think Young and Stroud are likely year one starters. Definitely Young.

Levis COULD be, although I have a lot of doubts. Richardson would be shocking if he is starting in three seasons. He basically has to finish learning how to play QB.

      I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By frankw · Posted

      Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
