It's Stroud and it shouldn't even be close

He has the tape, the arm, the mental processing.  He has the highest floor and his potential is there too. 

Bryce Young is good but severely undersized.  I think he can still play but would have to work out of a shotgun his entire career and avoid getting hit.

AR 15 is a project - you can't waste a #1 pick on him, way too much risk based on what we gave up.   I would have been fine with him at #9 but now that we traded up and have the pick of the litter, it would be idiotic not to draft Stroud.

Everything else better be just smoke 'n' mirrors otherwise I will lose it if we don't select Stroud or Young.

This original post was in reaction to rumors that we may take Anthony Richardson but I was spot on about Stroud.  Dude is a beast already.

Everyday that goes by i want Stroud more and more thats even with watching all these QBs tape. There is nothing there to lower the stock, you would have to fight to convince yourself otherwise which is stupid.

SMFH. whyyyyy

Just look at the pie ratio almost everyone agreed until it got closer to the draft and the Bryce media hype train started to gain traction 

I think when it became clearer that we were going to draft Young a lot of people here started convincing themselves he was the right pick. To the point where most people were hard core Bryce stands (seemingly) right before the draft.  And now that's backfired.

This makes no sense, how can you fault someone for having talent around him?  The idea that Young can come in here and play at an elite level without top teir talent around him is ridiculous.  This is the NFL not college, the defenses are faster, larger and the windows are tighter.  You need a QB who can stand in the pocket, use the whole field, and strike with pin point accuracy.  That is Stroud.  To be successful, Young will have to get out of the pocket and wait for plays to break down.

Spot on.

I get it man. We're all (well most of us) here because we're Panthers fans. It feels like ages since we last had any hope. I'm trying to remain optimistic that things will get turned around and Bryce can be a franchise guy for us. My original response probably came off more passive-aggressive then it should have, I'm sorry.

I’m not giving up on Bryce. Just hurts knowing Stroud was the best in class

I don't get caught up on the what it's. I know it's human nature. 

I'm happy for Stroud,  happy for the Texans. That franchise has suffered much since it's inception.   

I'm also not wavering on Bryce.  He's not the problem.

Agreed. Oh, and let's remember that the only reason the Texans even exists is because they offered a $700m "stop ignoring us" expansion fee to get that team when the league was determined to give one to LA, despite LA never getting its act together. Other than Watson, QB play for them has been the likes of Carr, Schaub, and TJ Yates. They're only eight years newer than Carolina but they seem to have had more futility.

      In addition to Evero there's one large change that likely should happen.

      By Saca312 · Posted

      It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.

      CBS Sports brief discussion about questionable Canales decision making

      By TylerDurden · Posted

      Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
