Very well could be announcing Young is the pick.

 

gonna be strange to have a media darling as QB

Could also be a move on Young's part to force more interest at the top. Literally anything is possible at this point.

Id rather keep tremble but know we just reupped with Thomas for some unknown reason

I’d like to keep Tremble too because honestly, I still think he can develop into a solid TE. Granted it’s year 3 so it’s put up or shut up for him but I believe lol. 

I agree that Ian is probably the odd man out too because with how deep this TE class is I can’t see them passing on one entirely.

Don’t think they can or NFL wants them to officially announce anything

Yeah 99%. 

 

That said, and I don't think this will happen just spitballing, the question of 1st overall pick has dominated the headlines for over a month now, what is another week of it really going to do? If anything, announcing Bryce tomorrow would actually in my view bring more interest and intrigue to the draft as then it becomes what do the Texans do at #2 and what do teams after that do? Waiting until draft night for 1st overall to be revealed means you have 10 minutes each to discuss those questions. Why not give it a week to hype up all the other prospects and teams picking and get some fresher reporting here? 

 

Not gonna happen, I don't think a pick has ever been announced ahead of time, but logically it could actually make sense for the league to let the Panthers do it if we wanted to.

For me it is this combined with the reports of the Texans shopping the #2 pick. I don’t think the Texans would give him a guarantee because they wouldn’t want that getting out of the Panthers take Young  and then they take Stroud, they would want the narrative to be that they got “their guy”. So if Young thinks there’s a possibility of dropping to 2, and he has no guarantee from the Texans, and the Texans are open to trading out of #2, then Young would want to continue meeting with teams that could potentially trade into #2.

I agree, Texans trying to move out of #2 seems to seal the deal.

      Multiple sports media outlets reporting the contract extension for RBA might be off the table. https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/2904953

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      Yea we easily win 6-7 games with Dalton but prefer the way it played out in getting the HC and GM fired

      By hepcat · Posted

      Hypothetical offseason question. If the Panthers sat Bryce in 2023 and played Dalton instead, where would the Panthers be going into 2024? One thing is certain, things would be VERY different.  1) Frank Reich doesn’t get fired. Dalton is a veteran and operated Frank’s offense far more effectively in the one game he started than Bryce did. The Panthers likely look a lot more competent early on and Frank doesn’t get fired mid-season. Caveat - It’s also been quietly mentioned in some media outlets that Frank and the staff preferred to draft CJ Stroud and might have tanked the season intentionally to get fired, all speculation. But the vanilla offensive scheme might have been a coincidence due to lack of talent and competence, or perhaps malicious compliance.  2) The Panthers wouldn’t have been the worst team in the NFL. The defense was fairly good in 2023 despite the fact the offense was the worst in the NFL with Young under center. With a veteran starting at QB, the offense would possess the ball for longer periods of time and could have lead to even better performances from the defense.  3) Scott Fitterer doesn’t get fired. A move I think was needed either way, but if the Panthers resembled anything in the way of competency in 2023, Fitterer doesn’t get the axe especially because they hadn’t seen what Bryce can do on the field yet.  4) David Tepper doesn’t throw a drink at a fan. I think we’re all tired of the owner of this franchise embarrassing the fans with his immature behavior but hey, I have to imagine that his rage wouldn’t have been at level 10 if they hadn’t had the disaster of a season they did in 2023. 5) Bryce has a good 2024? Biggest leap I can make in this speculation but I think if Bryce sat in 2024, and the team makes similar moves to build the offense around him, he would come into a much better situation after having a chance to learn on the bench behind a veteran instead of the situation he was thrust into.    We will never know how this would have played out but it is fun to speculate!
