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

Stroud covers every criteria for a #1 overall QB. He has 0 questions... nothing over durability, nothing over height, nothing over mechanics, nothing over character. Everyone else has AT LEAST 1 question, whether it be height or proper mechanics, etc. 

 

If it's not Stroud, we're wrong.

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

In terms of potential success, I feel very strongly that Levis would perform so poorly that he'd get booed off the field by October, a la David Carr in 2007. Levis has the worst decision-making of the four, the lowest ceiling of the four, the highest bust rate of the four and his biggest plus -- arm strength -- is, at best, second of the four.

I have some doubts on the most important thing…his ability to quickly process the field. I’ve seen evidence he can do it at a high level, but it’s not as obvious as Young.

Bucs just signed Baker.   I have been so bad at it....I see your point and those were my first thoughts.

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.

I honestly think he meant to say Dalton as the were talking FA'S.  They were going over our signings and said and I quote " they will benefit the Panthers new qb Will Levis". They guys were caught of guard as I was and yelled out "well done Ian!" and he quickly changed it to "whoever the qb is" while the other guys laughed at him. I'm assuming it was just a slip up.

  • Attitude/leadership came up during the combine

I will concede the others could be concerning but he was all business at the combine and blew people away with how serious he was and how mature he was in his interviews.  Furthermore I think that is his leadership style is to lead by example and be the first one in last one out type of dude.  Pretty sure I read all his teammates love him

Will Levis:

  • Can't throw accurately
  • Can't handle pressure
  • Couldn't beat good teams
  • Slow to read the defense
  • Makes poor decisions with the ball

      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

      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.
