Fitterer, Reich Combine pressers today


Mr. Scot

You know it's just dawned on me that I had dismissed something that Fitterer said in his interviews earlier about this draft. He said something about moving back if they could not move up for their guy. The more I think about it I'm beginning to think that moving back is plan B.

He also stated in another interview that this was going to be the draft that the make a splash or something of that nature.  He clarified by saying they were going to look at TE, WR and playmakers as he put it with qb being one them.

Given that trading up will empty the bank of what few picks they have this year and probably the first 2 rounds next year that seems a little hard to accomplish. 

He's mentioned several times about the possibility of taking a qb in the 2nd round and even today he added the possibility of getting one in the 3rd round.  So he's thought that through as a possibility and what he could do with the picks he acquires. He's mentioned Hooker more than a few times as a possibility which is worth noting.  But today he added Duggans name with Hookers for whatever reason.

Having completed all of that tinfoil hat analysis I say to you my Panthers brethren that this offseason is going to be a blast to watch unfold.

That Eason thing could be viewed as fortuitous. Maybe not. Need to look for stuff on their time together. Synchronicity?

I honestly cannot allow myself to care about Bryce Young’s skills at QB.  
How good he is or could be, immaterial. Endorsing a player of his size that high in the draft at that position, breaks every rule for me. Cut and dried. 

If this guy were 6’3”-6’4” even everyone would be justified all the way. 6’2”? Elevator going down..

    • 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
