I thought ballard was the best young GM mind, hes nearing gettlegut levels at this point. irsay can only get some of heat....

Hell, their Assistant GM is Ed Dodds.

There have been hints that Irsay is interfering in the process, but yeah sometimes guys just take a hard left turn.

Mind you, if we were to learn in seasons to come that most of their success was really because of Frank Reich, I'd be pretty cool with that 😄

Ed has been on all my top 3 GM lists before finesser. Just looking at the colts roster too, ballard has lost it.

Nobody has brought up RB Austin Ekeler and would he be a player we could use on the roster. The Chargers has given him authorization to test the waters. Only thing is his price tag.

He would require giving up a draft pick/picks and a pretty big contract.  I don't think that's in the Panthers budget this year.

panthers just rid of a more expensive ekeler. Many around the league are not wanting to pay RBs. I think the panthers finally got the memo, 20+ years too late...

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
