Corral was #2 at Ole Miss.  He had to change numbers because DJ already had #2 here.  I'm not saying it's not Young, but Corral's number has nothing to do with it.

I'm just saying trading DJ, allowed Corral to take #2 so Young could get #9. 

Because keeping Shaq #7 means CJ would have to choose a new number.

I still think Corral can be groom to be DA to Cam for Young.

If that's true it's going to be a historic mistake and the Texans are going to be the greatest beneficiary.  

And it does not explain why the Panthers' owners and 9 scouts and coaches are going to Columbus. 

Too much talking going on right now--people need to pay attention.  They have over 1 month to make a decision.

No games. Nobody believes it anyway. This franchise and it's weak gamesmanship trying to be "ahead" or deceptive is laughable.

If you are not good at misdirection, misinformation and disinformation maybe your should try a deliberate and honest approach because your constant attempts to "fool" or remake the wheel is futile.

Be honest. Tell the world you love him and he's your #1.

 

Psssst... Everyone already knows

He arguably has elite accuracy. Pretty much every single analysis says good but not elite arm strength..

 

I'm an not knocking Stroud. He is my preference. I'm just pointing out that the poster seemed to be exaggerating Stroud beyond what anybody else is saying. 6'3 is good height. It's not ideal. 

That’s why you gotta watch for yourself. Those analyses are mostly self parroting circle jerks.  At the combine in the velocity measurement he threw equal to Levis and 1 mph less Richardson, the guys with the “great” arms.  He also threw just as deep as Richardson in the deep drill. “Elite” might be a slight stretch for him, but he’s way better than “good”.  Watching his games reinforces that, not only deep balls but driving the mid throws when necessary. Receivers don’t have to wait on his passes.

Agree on the height though, “ideal” means best or perfect. That would be more like 6’5 or 6. 6’3 is “good”

    • 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.
