Just curious for those who are very concerned about Young's height....

Lets pretend Stroud was drafted last year,

and this year it was between Young, Richardson and Levis, who would you choose?

Young. I think he is a good prospect just Stroud is equally good without the size concerns. Now if it was between trading up for Young or staying at 9 and managing to get AR (doubt he lasts until 9)  then that could be a tough call.

I would chose Young as he is much better than the other two. I just think Stroud is better than him.

If this was 10 years ago I think Stroud would be the pick.

 

However this is a new era and when Frank mentioned about having QB's who can move and make plays with their feet has me convinced this pick is coming down to Bryce or AR.

 

I think Bryce is the pick as of today.

LMAO

I hope not because it will prove to be a mistake.

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Stroud playing Madden '18 online last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

My source told me to never trust a fart after eating at Waffle House. Luckily I haven’t had a meal there in over 20 years. 🤣

easily Young at 1 overall lol 

The debated is between Stroud and Young at 1. Richardson and Levis are projects, if we were still at 9 it would be a debate between them. Though I very much prefer Richardson over Levis

I think the debate is actually between Young and AR (who is a distant second) at 1

I actually think the Panthers played their hand well with the Stroud stuff. They didn’t want Houston to think they were coming up to 1 for Young. Especially since the deal took a while to come together. So out of fear of Houston moving to 1 and Chicago trying to trade back twice, Carolina convinced everyone Stroud was who they wanted

Yeah I’m over the Vegas thing. The pick will be Young and I suggest you jump on this opportunity to grab him at +240

I agree with you, if you have conviction Bryce will be the pick go make yourself some money. 

 

Me personally I will be happy with either Stroud or Young. I'm just happy we traded up to #1 overall and aren't going retread again.

I completely agree with this. Houston may have screwed up by not securing the trade to one. There have been some media outlets (I'd have to go search for them) that aren't convinced that Stroud will be the pick if the Panthers take Young. There is speculation that they could go defense or trade down. It's interesting. I'm not fully convinced it has to do with who Strouds agent is, but clearly the Texans are not on board with the "1a and 1b" consensus.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      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.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      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.
