Pauline believes it's Stroud, but Reich wants AR

yeah i'm super sure that a new head coach joined a team coming off 5 losing seasons in a row and said "i'll fix it with this QB who threw 48% over his 13 career games or you can fire me, i'm comfortable hitching the rest of my career to this idea."

I still think it's Stroud. We moved up to number 1 right after CJ's combine performance. Our QB coach loves his tape.  Had we moved up after Young's pro day I would be less sure.

Yeah I dunno why you would get Dalton as the backup and McCown as the QB coach if Bryce is the pick. CJ is the natural progression from their style of play.

Perhaps, but it's not like Dalton and McCown ever smoked the league, much less set it on fire.

This whole "we moved up right after the combine so it must be Stroud or Richardson" makes me laugh. When, otherwise, we're we supposed to move up? It was reported a billion times that the ideal time to move up was before free agency started to have flexibility, it has nothing to do with who dominated the combine.

Only ones I’d say “challenge” these qb are Bijan and Anderson. Carter has so many flaws to me (on field). 

And I obviously know that qbs jump to the top regardless of grade. But there are people grading other players over the QBs. Will likely never know what actual teams grade them. 

I don't think NFL com grades are the end all be all but they at least provide grades and have been doing so for years. I will give these more weight then some twitter schmoe who just gives a list.

I'm curious tho as someone supposedly on the AR train.

If he is what this organization deems to be the franchise, does it really matter where he is selected?

Did they pay a steep price to get AR at No 1? Yeah. But if they were worried that he wouldn’t absolutely be available at a lower pick, then jumping to get “the guy” is absolutely worth it. Is he going to be the pick? I doubt it. But if he is, then I’ll be all-in on it.

Bro Bryce has been the projected #1 pick since last year.

 

I get the size question, but don't act like this dude can't play the QB position. Ignore the size he has the best tape of all the QB's.

Tua was also the projected #1 pick in his draft for awhile...... I bet the Bengals are glad they didn't take him..

A) You can't ignore the size.

B) I'm not sure he does have the best tape (especially when it comes to projection)

      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.

      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.
