Not gonna lie the more pictures of Bryce I see online the colder im getting on him being my #2 guy.

 

Im confident that we are looking at 2 QB's Stroud/AR.

 

Bryce is the best QB but his size is a major factor. Someone mentioned Tua and I gets those same vibes. This dude is smaller than me and if you ever seen a NFL dlineman in person those dudes are freaking huge. If someone gets a good hit on him his body won't be able to take that kind of pounding consistently. I don't think that's a gamble we can make.

Also Reich, 6'4". McCown, 6'4". Dalton 6'2". You think they're gonna take the 5'10" guy over the 6'3" guy? They wouldn't even have advice for him on how to succeed in the pocket from personal experience.

i'd be cool with it, i guess. i prefer Stroud but they're really 1a and 1b.

if the pick is Young and he actually does end up too small or Stroud ends up miles better in the NFL, the Panthers will justifiably be a mockery because they'd be passing on as close to a sure thing as there is.

The original two glove QB David Carr is convinced we take Bryce Young. He goes on to say how the game has changed to favor offenses and he’s not concerned with Young’s size. 

All aboard the Bryce train baby.

No QB has ever been worth the value of 5 1st round picks. The expectations are going to be huge on this QB and GM from day 1. The most pressure any rookie QB will be subjected to in NFL history, and there is no foundation for a rookie QB to stand on with the Panthers. Dynasty or bust. A single SB win in 10 years is not enough for this investment.

The more I look at the two. I think that strong arguments could be made for both Young or Stroud and neither appear to be vastly better prospects. We're in such a good position and I can't emphasize enough how happy I am we traded up to 1 overall

5 first round picks? Lol. 

You hated DJ Moore.. You should have been excited to give him away

It's rather pathetic that this has devolved in to tearing one guy down to make the other look better. It was like 1 week ago when everyone said they'd be happy with either.

 

Human nature 😂

That's true, but it's because the stakes are huge. Make the wrong selection and we have hamstrung ourselves for 3 to 5 years.

Talking poo about either won't affect anything. The decision nor the outcome

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      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.
