Adam Schefter: Bryce Young is believed to be favorite for #1 for the Panthers right now

I think if this is true they need to stick with their evaluation and not let recency bias get in the way. It messes up SF, messes up the Jets and will mess us up. You've done a lot of the film work going into the trade, stick with your guy.

Nobody knows. Rumor is that we aren’t even entirely sure just yet, though that’s hard for me to imagine. But nobody outside of our organization has a clue right now.

I hope it's just bullshit - no way you trade that much and don't have a guy you want. 

You can't second guess yourself here, this is such a massive trade to get wrong.

If the Panthers made this trade for Bryce Young after the combine, then I doubt they change their minds after his pro day.  Young is much better than Jones.

There was a comment made by Reich (I think) that (to me) is the biggest tell.  He called the QB a "point guard" which is probably the best way to describe Patrick Mahomes.   The QB who most closely draws that comparison in this draft is Bryce Young. 

I see Young, and I see Stroud.  It all depends on what you are going to ask the QB to do.

The difference between our situation and The 49ers is we're having the opportunity to pick the Trevor Lawrence of the draft. It's a lot easier to be swayed to pick someone else when you can't pick the no.1 guy.

There isn't a Trevor Lawrence in this Draft, that's why the trade was so desperate.

They have all this time on NFL network dedicated to the draft.  Aside from the 50% of the time being given to the Aaron Rodgers "Moses" act, they have to say something. 

I was very strong Stroud 2 weeks ago--now I am tossing a coin.

They didnt trade all those picks and DJ moore to move up and select a 5'10 buck 80 QB. Im sticking to that. Its nothing against Bryce cuz he can play.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
