Steven Smith Sr first round QB breakdown

Recommended Posts

I didn't see a topic on this ( or a post in another thread )

 

I thought this was pretty insightful as far as what is being said around these pro days and the combine. Youngs processing vs Stroud in rhythm are two points that stuck out to me : 

 

 

 

Side note : Smitty needs to lose his cohost and bring on James Palmer or someone with more charisma and knowledge. Steve is great but he needs the guy on other side to play off of.

I think you could see on the co-hosts' face that he fears he's about to be replaced.

Great watch in all honesty. 

Great to hear how all in Steve has gotten into this whole process. 

Liked the part where Steve talked about the difference between being a leader and an Alpha dog, and admitted he was not a leader when he played and only knew how to be an A-Hole to "Lead". Good growth from Smitty on a personal level.

I really liked Steve Smiths skills and admired him as a WR but I am not sure I would have liked being his teammate as a fellow WR.

What's funny is back when he played he would probably think you were the problem. These days I think he'd tend to agree with you.

Analyst Smitty is actually pretty good, has mellowed out, and is entertaining. I'm enjoying his post playing career. He also really has a knack for scouting WRs - He labeled Kupp as the best of their draft class.

Yeah lots of great stuff in this episode. Perception vs reality, Jalen Carter stuff. 

 

Feeling more and more confident that Young is the pick. The praise here was high.

I agree. Well stated.

    • Who is "they"?  Who in the media still argues that Bryce Young could reach the levels that people thought he would before the draft? I mean, nobody is going to come outright and bash the kid.  By all accounts he's a good dude and I think that is why you don't see the media come after him like they did Zach Wilson.
    • It started during the Denver game after that first drive. i don’t think the panthers got a first down again until the fourth quarter. 
    • The Panthers will finish with at least 7-8 wins.  So that leaves them with only two "smart" choices in my opinion: 1. Sign a reasonably priced free agent QB and see if they are better than Bryce Young in training camp - The issue is there will be very little options.  There is almost no way the Colts let Daniel Jones walk.  Rodgers, Flacco, and Wilson will likely retire (and is Wilson better than Bryce anyway?).  Winston is under contract with the Giants for another year.  That leaves Mariota, which I'm all for, but the Commanders will make a big push to keep him given Daniels' injury history.  Outside of him, there is literally nobody else. 2. Stick with Bryce Young for one more year - Nobody wants this to happen, but the Panthers won't be in a position to draft one in the first round and it isn't a strong class to begin with.  Mendoza, Simpson (and do we really want an Alabama QB?), and Moore will likely all be off the board by the time we pick.  Bryce isn't good, but we are still 5-4.  I'd rather continue to build the rest of the team than reach for a QB.  Then we could set ourselves up nicely in 2027 to make a splash play if we choose.  This is how we should have approached years past; stuck with Kyle Allen or Sam Darnold or Teddy Bridgewater and kept building the team until we were ready to make a splash.  But every year we panicked and did something stupid. There is the idea you could throw a dart at a guy in the later arounds, but IMO this just isn't a good QB class and odds are it will be a wasted pick.  I still think we need a lot of depth on the defense.  I'd rather focus there.
