Don't get me wrong, I like Young and would be happy if we went with him.

We need to pick the best QB, not the best football mind. I'm sure the coaching staff and McNown would love to have Bryce around, but if he can't hold up or make all the throws, then they need to go with Stroud. I'm sure Tony Romo was lovely to be around as a football genius, but he didn't hold up or become a superstar QB.

I'm not worried about Young's height at all, but Young loves to hold the ball for super long amount of time and that will get him some big hits early in his career. Stroud is like Brees or Brady, that bitch better be out before the DE comes around

This will be a collaborative choice, and the Panthers still have organizational meetings ahead to set their draft board with finality. But before he took the Carolina quarterback-coach job, Josh McCown reportedly told friends he loved Young. What that means after he’s studied all of the passers, I don’t know.

I think there are several who prefer Young, and several who prefer CJ. We have a GM who isn't exactly a dominant minded authoritarian, coaches, coordinators, scouts, Tepper, and his wife who has her fingers in many pots, they're not all going to agree. Some want CJ, some want Young. How they are going to decide is anyone's guess. Fitt might just obey whatever Reich says. Who knows at this point?

There are very few people who will actually be involved in making this final decision.

A handful of coaches and executives, and I don't think any of them are dumb enough to go around telling people who we like more than others.

Anything you read between now and draft night has been put out by the team for one reason or another, or is pure speculation based on murmurs lower level people have heard in passing conversations, or flat out lies made up by the reporter for clicks.

Even if this is true, it would be pure luck by King to report it, particularly as it's not really much of a statement, I'm sure there are people in both the Panthers and Texans organizations that like each of the top 2 QB's better than the other.  

Shocker

      Post- Training Camp 53-Man Roster Projection

      By Seltzer · Posted

      By all indications, the surgery was "minor." I know with all surgeries and especially back surgery there can be complications, but I think the whole time Tremble did this with the expectation he would be able to be back for Week 1 It sounds like he will be ready to start back in team drills next week. He's a veteran who knows the system so I'm sure that helps. I still can't imagine he will play a normal workload early on though

      Maybe. He was pretty good in college before a bad injury. He had a good preseason last year as a UDFA in Washington and was on their practice squad all year so they obviously saw something worth developing. He signed a futures deal with the Panthers earlier this year, and everything about him has been increasingly positive. Tremayne has gotten a decent amount of time with the ones, and a lot with the twos for someone that doesn't have a chance. He's the only other 6'4" plus WR on the team, plays ST, and is a more natural backup to the X receiver position than David Moore. That was my thinking behind it. But he may well end up as one of the last roster cuts. If so, I do hope they can bring him back to the PS. But I personally think there's a good chance he could be claimed given his ST ability and what hes shown at WR.

      That was my thought originally, but so many of the beat writers have mentioned keeping 7 WRs in conversations that I went with that, at least for the purposes of this projection. But you're right that historically defensive guys who were standouts at ST have tradionally gotten those last spots
