Per Michael Lombardi: 

McCown likes CJ 

Reich prefers the bigger QB 

Teppers like Bryce 

Fitterer and Morgan like both 

Eventually Reich, Fitterer, Morgan, Dave Tepper will be the 4 who decide  

McCown knows if he gets CJ and he can turn CJ into someone great, it looks good for him.

Young can probably teach a few things to McCown and that can hurt someone's ego.

Reich can be bought..Fitterer probably more towards Young, Morgan might like actually like both, Tepper wants his Franchise QB Young,

Lombardi also said Bryce Young is the much better prospect

CJ is good but robotic and the Ohio State offense doesn’t translate well to the NFL

I'd like them to just cancel the Kentucky and Florida Trips--they need to go to a mountaintop chalet and work it out.

If you think the Teppers are not influencing this selection, they are.  To what end? Who knows.

NFL Network said the last time an owner got involved in pro days it was Daniel Snyder and the pick was RGIII.

Devil's advocate...AR is a beast of a man who's biggest drawback is that he threw < 60%. He needs to play up athleticism as much as possible.

AR just needs to play more games on a better team. He will be a problem in the nfl in a year or two if he gets on the right team.  Levis is a complete unknown.

I actually don't think Tepper will have any say in who we draft in the end.

I think he's smart enough to realize he hired Reich and allowed him to put this staff together for a reason.  He might give his own thoughts into the matter, but when it comes to actually making a decision, I think he's going to be smart enough to let the football guys make the actual call.

AR has a very high ceiling (down the road) if the game slows down for him.

OR... he be a big flaming turdball of a bust! I wasn't all in on him at #9, I'm damn sure not all in at #1.

If he was bigger, the Bears would have been trading Fields and would take Young themselves.

His frame just can't be discounted when evaluating him, it's not the ultimate reasoning for anything or else he'd be a mid round pick, but when there is another prospect that is equally as good, but 5 inches taller and at least 20 lbs heavier (again, I don't believe Young's combine weight was anything other than a good 15 lbs of extra water weight), you gotta go with the QB more likely to hold up to the wear and tear of an NFL career.

15lbs of water weight? Wow

He let Rhule trade for Darnold and passed on Fields when he landed to us, yea good luck with that

    • 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.
