So it's Anthony Richardson's Pro Day tomorrow (Thursday 30 March).

I gather the Panthers contingent has flown out today from the NFL meetings in Phoenix to meet him for dinner this evening. 

What are we expecting from his Pro Day? What could he do to elevate himself into the conversation for #1 overall?

I was leaning Richardson when we were at 9 but, not at 1.  I think on a longer time horizon and with the right coaching staff, he can be a really special player.  

Isn't this coaching staff, with their centuries of experience, the right staff to develop Richardson?

Why, yes, they are.  Could they get him ready to start by year 2?  Maybe.  Year 3 more likely but, what do I know.  Young and Stroud look much more ready to start this season.

I think if you look at the FA moves, I think we are be set up to ‘win now’ or ‘win sooner, not later’; not in 3 years.

I don't know if they're the right staff despite the experience. McCown has never coached at this level before and Frank might not have the time to devote to developing someone so raw. That said, the hope is that they are the right staff for any of the QBs.

I think they're trying to "win now" again as well. Hopefully, this time it doesn't bite them in the butt again.

There's no way to know for sure if he can ever be as accurate as the top two guys.  I wish McCown had gotten the AR video out before he got the QB coach job so we could could get a more honest read on how he feels at least

      Is AJ Dillon just a camp body?

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      I think Dillon can be what Eric Shelton was supposed to be.

      Yeah, no way he's an option at 19. We could honestly probably get him in the 3rd round.

      I mean, on some level I get it. They want to know 100% for sure before they either extend Bryce or move on. I imagine the logic behind it is that if they add another weapon and Bryce doesn't show he can be a franchise guy then we'll be in great position to draft another QB and slot him into an offense with 3 legit WRs, a good TE and a solid OL. I don't think it's as simple as the front office trying to "justify" an extension for Bryce. If they're not sold on Bryce then they know paying him big money is a recipe for disaster and at that point just trying to please Tepper isn't going to save their jobs in the long run if they're stuck with a QB we can't win with. I think Morgan and Canales are just as uncertain on Bryce as the fanbase is. They see his limitations, but they also see flashes where he has managed to overcome them and look like a potential franchise QB. I think they're trying to avoid Bryce becoming the next Baker Mayfield or Sam Darnold and want to do everything they can to give him what he needs to succeed so that if/when the time comes to move on from him nobody can say "the Panthers were the problem" if he goes elsewhere and succeeds. And if we do end up having to bring in another QB in a year or two if nothing else they will have the pieces around them as well and can hit the ground running. I also think drafting a WR in the 1st this year would be as much about missing on XL as it would trying to justify extending Bryce. Personally I think we need to just count ourselves lucky to have landed a legit #2 WR as an UDFA in Coker (which helps negate the miss on XL in the 1st) and try to find a good slot receiver in free agency or the 2nd-4th rounds while focusing on defense and the OL in the 1st round.
