We Panther fans have been lucky to experience excellence at the MLB position. 

Sam Mills

Dan Morgan

Jon Beason

Luke Keuchly

Even guys like Chris Draft and now Frankie Luvu gave us a decent level of play. 
 

Luke is the GOAT and had concussions not been a problem he probably would cemented #1 all time by now. 
 

Does make you wonder what could have been with Dan Morgan, very similar player to Luke. Not quite as cerebral as but maybe had an edge athletically and was more of a ruthless player.

With the staff we had at the time, his career would have been over before it began.

Brees didn't really become elite until he was paired with Sean Payton.

And that's why I have faith in the BY pick. We have an excellent coaching staff. This isn't Matt Rhule and Mike Shula sending a dude out there to get wrecked over and over. We actually have coaching now. And an offensive line. And some decent playmakers.

Any Panther fan who sat around and watched Brees carve us up twice a year for a freaking decade and is STILL harping about size blows my mind.

People forget he was drafted by the chargers and it took him years to figure out how to get around his lack of size. If we take Young, he will be gone in a couples years and become good year 6. We dont have time to wait around 6 years to figure that out. He we someone who can deliver the ball and high accuracy. That something that develops very quickly with the playbook and knowing your receivers.

Different sport but Zion is one the (if not THE) biggest dude on the court...when he plays, except almost he never plays because he stays hurt even in a non-contact sport.

I guess I've still yet to see the injuries that small Bryce would get that big Cam wouldn't. I suppose he could get the wind knocked out of him more, but I don't see how he could have more concussion, knee injuries, shoulder injuries etc because he's small. I'm also not a sports physician, so there's that.

I can already see it next year if/when he gets hurt the debate will still be about his size and if that contributed to it.

Young is coming in more prepared.

You actually make a solid point. Picking a player over size or too small can be a issue. Picking a player like Morant you got a superstar.

It is a comfort to hear Luke Kuechly speak highly of Bryce Young. Now we have to wait and see what happens.

I have my own preference about which QB the Panthers should draft between Young and Stroud.

However,  I will  trust our new fine  coaches, who have more insight than I do, to make the right call, and will gladly support and abide by their decision.

      Benjamin Solak on Panthers draft needs

      Wonder if we draft a RB. Seems like a lot of eggs in Brooks’ basket right now.  And the OL, no kidding. If that running game goes to hell with what we have at QB, you can forget competing. It is so much more important than sticking another wideout on the field. Take your wideout later.

      2026 Win predictions from DraftKings

      I have lots of different thoughts on it. This argument, the primary thing is I don’t like seeing him or anyone, being convicted on hearsay and/or pure speculation. Which some are doing.  I don’t care That much about defending Morgan as I do about the criticism being fair minded.    You sort of assert that Dan was just a yes man. I don’t think we know if he ever pushed back against Fitterer but I have this instinct thing that needs me to satisfy the question of: if Tepper was so down on a Fitterer as to fire him, why in the world would he hire his carbon copy? I guess maybe he wanted a yes man.Like I said, lots of different thoughts.     I am just not gonna judge him that harshly based only on speculation. I am sticking with what he has done starting when he was hired as GM. Maybe I am more lenient because the first season for him and Canales, I gave both a pass. Said I would judge them after the first year. Stuck to it. If you can get to the reality that neither were ready for the job and say okay give them a year get their feet wet, it looks a lot better.    And we are not bound to Bryce yet. Yes, for yet another fuging year he can probably marginally improve and slide by like he has been doing. But if they add even more people and he regresses? I think we could see some relief.    The QB room? As I understand it, Pickett was Canales’ choice. If we need to blame people for poo. In a sense, he is very Bryce like. So makes a good plug in. I get that a little bit. We still have the draft. If they do better than Jake Plummer or Hooker I’ll know they are trying.
