pretty sure i caveated every message with the fact the draft was still two-three months away and anything could change. However, have your moment if that's what makes you happy. Im all about people finding happiness.

Naw…No worries man.  It was like late last year.  No one knows what will happen

The QB I have wanted for 2 years is coming to Carolina!

I'm more concerned about him seeing the field and his receivers seeing him. He's not going to be able to maneuver the pocket like he did in college.  He's going to get a lot of passes tipped or knocked down at the line and he will not be able to hold the ball as long as he did in college.

Justin Herbert had over twice as many batted balls than Kyler Murray last seasn.

Height has nothing to do with it. Throwing lanes and arm angles.

Pocket feel and navigation also translates very well to the NFL.

I do agree he won't be able to hold onto the ball as long as he did in College, but he is capable of diagnosing plays and making a quick read very fast.

The nfl defenses are significantly better than college defenses.  In college there maybe 2 nfl prospects on a college team at any one time. The rest hope to make a nfl practice squad.  The nfl has 11 guys that are nfl capable and will have 3 or four stars that are as smart or smarter than these rookies.  You cannot assume that college tape will translate to nfl success.  It rarely if ever does. All of these guys will have to evolve their game or they will end up on the street in 3 years.

Where do folks keep getting the idea that Young's arm strength is suspect? He doesn't have the howitzer that Richardson and Levis have, but he had no problem throwing accurate deep balls after his shoulder sprain to start October.

I've re-watched all of Young's and Stroud's games from the last two seasons and am about to do the same for Levis, and I just don't see reason for the questions that people are raising about Young's arm talent. Seems like just another knock on his size because "he's too small to throw it far."

I agree and he showed as much in the pocket in school.  A casual observation for me but I think he stands in the pocket taller than Kyler (and is much less jittery with his game).   I'm more confident than not he'll dart passes just fine.

    • I would say the extremes from both camps in these conversations have to do with the blurring of the fact Bryce is a first overall pick and the expectations for that draft slot fair or not far exceed just being a top 20-25 starter amongst your peers. Regardless. All logical Panthers fans want him to be the answer.
    • The offseason is always when hope springs eternal. If you look past that, you can see a very bad roster with a lot more questions than definitive answers. Let's hope we get a lot of those right, because I think we are a lot closer to another impatient Tepper reset than we probably think.
    • These arguments are getting more and more disingenuous from both the pro and anti Bryce crowd. Bryce looked very good for stretches down the final 8 games. He finally showed glimpses of the guy that was projected as a top QB pick in the draft. Bryce also didn't look like a top 10 NFL QB.  I think we are so far removed from Prime Cam that we forget what an elite QB looks like. I could tell that when people were losing their minds and simping for Sam Darnold. This season needs to finally showcase Bryce as a franchise talent. If that doesn't happen, it's time to pivot. There are very few recent examples of QB's struggling or being a mixed bag through the first three seasons of starting and then suddenly becoming frachise caliber players.
