More Smoke? Adam Schefter: CAR traded for Young, then checked other QBs. They did not bridge gap.

This will be a disaster if true. A tiny QB with a mediocre, at best, arm. Great kid. Great attitude. Quick brain. He will have a much smaller margin of error than he had in college. The results will reflect that. His lack of athleticism, arm strength, size, and inability to play from under center will not be overcome by processing speed, brain power, and/or attitude. 
 

If drafted by the Panthers, I hope that I am wrong. I do not think I will be though. I hope that this is part of a smokescreen. It’s getting a tad bit harder to believe that though as the draft gets closer. 

 

Everything that you mentioned could be true, and in some cases is a fact. However, there is a chance he could overcome his limitations, and be a decent quarterback. My guess is that they are going to design the offense to be similar to the one that Jalen Hurts plays in with Philadelphia. That offense has a lot of rollouts getting Jalen hurts outside the pocket and allowing him to find the open receivers. Whether or not Bryce Young can execute, that type of offense is unknown, but if he busts then he will probably be a bust in a huge way. 
I guess this will be one of those situations where you would say you always miss one hundred percent of the shots you don’t take.

If you haven't noticed, there are certain huddlers that believe all the Young talk is nothing but a ploy to get the Texans to trade draft picks and give the Panthers another first rounder. It can't possibly be real interest or that the Texans were blowing smoke when so many rumors had them interested in Young weeks ago.

The Young talk is valid. He's definitely very possible, though all reliable sources say the decision isn't made yet.

That said, on the occasion of the Texans offering a decent package to trade up, do the Panthers take it?

If the offer's good enough, I think they do.

Mind you, that doesn't make the Young discussion a smokescreen. It's just the acknowledgment of another possibility.

My point is it’s not some colossal mistake, it’s backed by film and analytics that the professionals use. I trust Reich’s opinion over people on a random message board.

I mean, it could be, but so could Stroud, Richardson or Levis. And hell, even the best coaches and personnel guys make mistakes.

But I'm like you. I trust the people we have in charge now and will do so till they give me reason not to.

(here's hoping that doesn't happen anytime soon) 😕

What do NFL models know? They don’t play football.

Well, there was the Lingerie League.

(which, if my significant other is reading this, I want to make clear I absolutely positively never watched a single second of; I only know about it from seeing news articles online) 😐

Depends on who the Panthers want and if they think the Texans want the same guy.🤷‍♂️

In that scenario, the Panthers are equally happy with either Young or Stroud.

(and probably get Stroud)

Yeah you are correct any of them could bust.  I guess I mean the NFL wouldn't be shocked if we draft Young first.  In fact it's almost expected it will be him or Stroud.

    • Who believes after Rico went off that Dave will go back to Chuba, go very pass happy again, run Chuba 7 times, and give Rico 5 carries?   he has a weird obsession with wanting to pass it over and over with Bryce. 
    • I never once said I believed in Sam. Only that he’s proof that the Jets and Panthers are bad organizations. You spent all that time on me. I’m flattered. 
    • Story of the year. Get down massively to Arizona, look like your first NFL game to throwing for more than 300 yards and getting the team to within 40 yards of a come back win. Get down 17-0 to Miami, execute the offense to outscore the Dolphins 27-7 the rest of the way. Defeat the Falcons 30-0 throwing for like 150 yards. Personally, I think it would be great to have retained Darnold. Darnold in this scheme with Canales would instantly make this team a contender for the NFC South. However that didn't happen.  I don't know what you do because when they run game gets shut down, and it will get shut down, you have to depend on Bryce to play efficiently. On one third down ball to someone (I forget who), when he was rolling out and made that throw close to the sideline to convert, the TV people would talking about how special that was. What I saw was another receiver streaking all alone 45 yards downfield, with about 5 yards of separation. Even while rolling out, an average QB is able to deliver that ball, signed, and sealed for a touchdown. Bryce's lack of deep ball ability is the achilles heel to this offense and it's something that can't be fixed.  I would love to be able to draft Carson Beck. I think he took a lot of crap at UGA which now seems unwarranted. Looking at how inefficient their offense is now compared to how it was with Beck at QB, and now how he has gone into the system Cam Ward was in and outperformed him massively in just pure execution and efficiency, along with the physical traits, tells me he will be a Top 3 pick. We won't have a Top 3 pick though. So what do we do? I have no idea. Canales is too good of an offensive coach for us to get a Top 3 pick and Bryce is inconsistent enough to get us a Top 10 pick. So absent finding a guy like Nix with tons of experience and good enough measurables, which requires great evaluations, I just think we are stuck.
