We had to deal with the same 10 posters or so popping in every time Cam threw an incomplete pass for way longer than you’d probably believe

the only time they ever showed up was when he had a bad game. if he had a big game you never heard a peep from them so they weren't around much for the first few years.

I would think fans (and the nfl) would like it to be a complete surprise at the party

Yeah, but the Panthers don’t want half the stadium booing the pick.

Josh was on WFNZ this morning 

And the way he talked, it’s Not just smoke 

-Said when they traded up they were torn between a few prospects.

- mentioned as the pro days and meetings went and they met with the people.  They have an idea or have their guy by now.

- mentioned that’s why all the rapid leaks and movement has been happening the last few days.

- said the team Would like the fans to know somewhat who the pick is before it happens.

- pointed out the big draft party even they’re hosting.  Said with the fan base so split and torn between a few guys.  It best for the fans base to someone know instead of having everyone there who are taking sides at the event.

- said they’d like it to be more of a coronation.  Then the shock surprise

Josh is very trusted source. I love that he basically said who the team is  drafting without saying their name

 
2011 - Took Heisman winning QB at #1

2023 - We’re once again going take a Heisman winning QB to be the face of the franchise 

 You simply can’t pass up “special” you guys should be excited.

Well, we now know who “Juan” is…

Going to go out on a limb and say Bryce Young will be the best QB in the NFC South this year. That's how much I believe in this kid ability to play QB.

 

We have a legit Oline this kid will be protected from day 1.

I think with either QB you could say that

Uh oh, he is going to be a Steeler because he's following Kenny Pickett

I think it might be to late for that.

Why do you say that.

because you personally don’t like the other guy?  That’s pretty stupid to say.

Because the fanbase clearly favors Stroud and there's enough controversy around the others to sour the welcome party. Everyone will fall in line eventually but there's going to be some salt on draft night if it's Young, Richardson, or Levis.

Stroud fans just won’t show up. Having fans show up with Stroud/Levis/AR signs would not be the best look. 
 

I get what they are doing. It seems most of these Bryce to CAR stuff is coming from Mortensen and King types. The old trusted guard.

Very wise for the Panthers to try to quite the fanbase and make them ready for the new QB.
