The interest in Bryce Young is definitely legit although I wouldn’t say anything is set in stone. Especially with QB visits left to play out. 
 

From my understanding the trade to 1 was with both Stroud and Young in mind and proponents for each in the building. From the sounds of things the pendulum is moving towards Bryce. 

At this point the expectation is the Panthers will make the first pick in the draft so while not everything out there is legit, everything also isn’t all a smokescreen…

As mentioned above, nothing is definitive and likely won’t be until next week after visits conclude 

This would be COMPLETEly & FRANKly devastating news to a few on here. lol

If Tepper likes Bryce that’s where my money is. I can see where there may be legitimate differing opinions from different members of the coaching staff about who the pick should be. If I paid 2.275 billion for this team and had to live with the results of this pick I would listen to the coaching staff, but the final decision would be mine as owner. This pick more than any other since Tepper has been here will define his legacy as an owner. You can believe “it will be the coaching  staffs decision” if you wish. I don’t think so.

I'm not gonna lie to you though. The fact some longtime former Darnold homers reaaaaaaaaaaaaally want Bryce Young does give me pause. Hoping for the best.

It’s tough because the Young fanboys are cut from the same cloth as the Darnold ones, but @rippadonnis spamming for Stroud which is also a red flag…

And I guess you can't fire yourself, so that's a bonus too.

Cam was fairly raw when he came out, and most people do not realize that he was below 60% completions for his career.  At Auburn in 2010 Cam was at 66%--so his accuracy dropped--(pro system vs. spread)

Truth be told, if Ginn caught all he dropped it would have helped Cam’s completion rate considerably.

    • It's not only about the draft spots, the scheduling is a huge factor. We already have a tough 2026 schedule by playing the North divisions, that's possibly 7 playoff contenders there and a few true SB contenders between the Lions, Packers, Vikings, Bears, Ravens, Bengals, and Steelers (Browns will still suck lol), while also pulling the AFC West for the 17th game. Let's just say for the sake of argument we are going to be true contenders in 2026 in both scenarios Would you rather go 9-8 and to make the playoffs as the last WC or worst division winner, lose in the first round and then have to add likely the Eagles/Commanders, 49ers/Rams, and Chiefs/Chargers to an already tough schedule because we have a 1st/2nd round finish this year, while picking 19th in the draft (where the worst playoff team picks) or Or lose an extra game to finish 8-9, while ending up in 3rd (obviously need Falcons/Bucs to get a WC spot) and miss the playoffs, but then get to add likely the Cowboys/Giants, Seahawks/Cardinals, Broncos/Raiders to the schedule while picking 13th in the draft (the highest an 8-9 team picked this year). I can understand why some people would just want to go to the playoffs again, and I can't fault that thinking.  But I'm always a bigger picture person and looking at what is best for the future of the franchise and winning a SB, not my immediate feelings that game/season.   So I'm taking those 3 SIGNIFICANTLY easier games and the 6 better draft spots. If we're a true contender in 2026, those 3 games based on divisional finish could very well be the difference of a 1 vs whatever seed.  Right now the top teams in the NFC are the teams who play in places you don't want to have road playoff games at... GB, Detroit, Philly are some of the toughest stadiums to play in, especially if cold weather games for the outdoors ones.  Give me the few extra easier games to hopefully make the difference in getting home field advantage. Making the playoffs to just lose in the first round isn't worth the first scenario to me when the alternative is losing maybe one or two more games while looking better while doing so.  I can stomach those extra losses in a much improved season when it's for the betterment of our future.  
    • We also watched Cam take Carolina to the SB but how much did his career change when he went to the Pats? See how that works? You create a post just to rag on player on another team just because you hate. You love to do this stuff. I've seen it for a few years. You are one of the main problems on this site. Not just y0u but you're definitely one of them. This topic should be in the nfl general chat. As a mod I would think you would understand that but no. The mods need mods around here.  This is for Panther's material. Can a real mod move this thread to it's proper place please?
