Young 'absolutely blew away' HC Frank Reich when talking football

I watched a lot of CJ’s games this year thinking the Panthers had a shot at him. I’ve gone back and forth on him. I think he has the ability to be a very good precession passer in the NFL, but do worry about how he handles pressure. Yes, the UGA game he showed that he can run some which is crucial, but there were a lot of throws this season when the pocket collapsed just a little bit, that had me scratching my head. 


The more and more I think about it, the more and more I think it’s going to be Bryce. He’s just that special of a player, even with the size concern, if they pass on him it could be one of the biggest regrets in franchise history.

Runningback or linebacker?

Yeah that was vintage Hurney 😕

He also picked a Qb, a DE (I think he was responsible for getting Peppers, but could be wrong), a CB (Gamble), and two tackles.  One of the tackles failed due to injury but the other one turned out pretty well.  The tackle (Otah) was perhaps his only first round miss, and that injury related.  

He wasn't good at some of the other football things, but I don't think anyone can legitimately criticize his first-round picks for the Panthers.

He was heavily involved in the 2001 draft as well.

No, we don't.

Not that it matters anyway because Reich and Fitterer are making the pick.

Well, we actually kinda do

Not if Nicole has any say about it...lol

This means nothing and just a pic of a hug nothing more. Not a guarantee of being the pick at all which seems you are insinuating. And again no it isn't.

    • 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.
