One thing is for sure. The folks who are hella sensitive and pooing posts about the size issue might as well buckle in because it isn't going anywhere and our rivals and opponents will be sure to let us know about it.

Exactly....and they won't think twice about laying the wood on that kid if they can. There is no honor in this, when you step on the field its war. Rattling him will be at the top of every scouting report.

If I was an opposing Defense I'd love to play a team that can only operate out of shotgun and can't launch the ball more than 50 yards

I was originally a Stroud guy.  But recently I have been watching a bunch of BY tape.  I will says this.  He will be exciting as poo to watch and have some unbelievable plays.  But I will cringe every time he gets sacked.  

If he can stay healthy he will be great.  

I also think then Panthers know who they are taking. With the OC Brown building the playbook you would have to know who you are building it around.  Maybe he is just in the beginning stages and just adding the plays that are universal.  But to but it completely the playbook will look different for BY than CJ.

And that’s the thing.

Its about as known now that Houston is as interested in Stroud at 2 as we are Levis at 1.  They have their eyes on Bryce if it’s a QB.  If they call and seem willing again.  That means that there’s a strong chance We take Stroud regardless at 1.   Also if we wanted Bryce, it would take a LOT to get us to move off the top QB on our board after what we gave up to get there.  And what they’d have to offer, the reality is, they won’t give that much to move 1 spot to 1.

We're going in circles here, so this will be my last.

I do not know what the price will be to move back a spot.  That will depend on how in love the Panthers are in one guy vs. the other and how much Houston wants a particular guy.

Houston may be perfectly fine taking Stroud after seeing us take Young.

But if Houston feels strongly about one or the other, then they will call us to see what the price is.  If we are willing to move back, it does not mean we are settling for the second best guy, or that we will not get our first choice, whoever that is.  It simply means we are ok with either guy plus the compensation we get from Houston.  Its not emotional.  Its just a transaction. And who knows, we may still end up with our favorite guy plus some extra compensation.

And the fact we traded so much to get to 1 is irrelevant here.  That was simply the price to get one of the top two guys.  Trading to 2 was out of the question.  We knew we wanted one of Young or Stroud so trading to 1 was the only option we had.  Doesn't mean we liked one more than other, it was simply our only option to enter the game.  

You are one of my favorite posters on this site, but I can't keep posting the same poo over and over.  If we end up moving back, maybe we can continue this conversation.  

Cheers.

This is why we should not have moved up. Neither guy is going to provide the value you expect at the top of the heap. 
 

I mean, if they are having issues with Stroud? Then they moved up to take a point guard/qb without the arm strength, without experience under center, that has to go way back in that gun to throw 30 yards downfield, he needs a running start to get something on it. 
You’re gonna see. 

I bet the the defense in the NFC S are licking their chops.

You have to ask yourself this question, if Bryce Young is the unmistakably better QB, why are the Texans cool with waiting and taking Stroud?  If Washington could have moved up to take Andrew Luck back in 2012, they would have done that with all their heart and soul.  Carolina would be an absolute fool to not take CJ Stroud.

      Most hated teams

      After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
