Are the Panthers unsure of who their #1 is or is it just a smokescreen…

Ian Rappaport just slipped up on nfl network and said "the Panthers qb Will Levis" and the quys were shocked.  He just laughed it off.

I’d cry. Then I’d get wasted. Then a week later I’d gaslight myself that Levis was the only true franchise QB in the draft.

Yeah my gut says Stroud with Richardson as the dark horse. 
 

It just seems far fetched that Reich will want Young based on his QB’s historically. 

I kinda think it came down to 2 guys and that was Stroud and Levis. The 3rd guy to insert himself into consideration would be Richardson.  I do not think Young was ever in the running with us.

It would not matter to me which guy they take.  Just get a guy that can help us win and make the trade up worth it.

You guys have to remember that these posted rankings have nothing to do with how teams rank these players.  They do their own scouting and ranking the guys according to how they see their fit with their team. So do not assume Young and Stroud are the top 2 on everyone’s draft board.  Hell I've heard it reported that Hooker is considered one of the top 3 qbs by many teams. You can never predict what teams will do with this draft class.

Open your minds for at least the next 30 days or so. 

  • Take Stroud and put him under center at Kentucky.  Think about the OL there, the receivers, etc.
  • Take Young and put him under center at Kentucky.  Think about the OL there, the receivers, etc.
  • Take Levis and put him under center at Bama or OSU.  Think about the OL there, the receivers, etc.

Is it possible that these professional coaches and talent evaluators see something in Levis that we do not?  Is it POSSIBLE....?

If I am wrong, and they draft Levis and he goes full Ryan Leaf on us, blame Jon Snow.🥲

He's more Josh Rosen. If Reich and Fitterer pick him...wow. Just wow. Reich would instantly have done more damage and been even dumber than Matt Rhule, which I'd have never guessed.

Don't blame me! I do not get to hand in the card.

It scares me too, but I am not very good at evaluating QBs as they transition to the NFL...I am horrible at it.

Someone has to be blamed!!! Kidding.  I appreciate the catch--Ian could be in the know and the Panthers may know something we all have missed.

I appreciating you tolerating me throwing you under the bus, twice. Just having some fun with posters I feel that I can trust.

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      By Icege · Posted

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
