I was more excited for Stroud. But I'll believe in our the former QBs in our FO to be making the right call here.

Let me go watch some Bryce highlights and see if anything gets me excited.

 

I gotta be honest, this is like trying to rub one out to a video where the star just really isn't your type. That's Bryce. My semi-flacid fantasy QB.

I had though up until a week or so ago the Panthers were leaning toward Ohio States C.J. Stroud but events that are happening and things being said now, lead me to believe more and more they are securely locked in on Alabama's Bryce Young.

I have stated previously that both QB"s are very talented, just in different ways and the team that gets either one will be very fortunate to have gotten them.

you do realize at some point the mods are going to start cracking down on this type of poo posting.  Because we prefer the other guy doesnt mean we arent fans.  I hope bryce does well and makes me eat crow year after year (which I will gladly do) but I know how this game is played all too well

The guy can't help himself. He did the same thing with Matt Rhule and Sam Darnold. Once he's in he totally wraps himself up in whomever goes on to become his obsession. Remember when he was going to keep receipts on all the Darnold doubters? Then he abandoned his account. You just gotta let crazy be crazy.

I'm excited regardless. No reason not to be happy at a time like this. Some folks can't handle difference of opinion and understand every draft pick the last half a century and more has had varying levels of doubt. But once the pick is made you support your guy. At the end of the day I'll happily take a clean slate with Young. Why? Because he isn't Kyle Allen Teddy Bridgewater Sam Darnold or Baker Mayfield. But this selection is just the beginning. It will be a tough road for any QB that is selected first. The same people trolling these threads will very likely go silent if and when BY has some gaffes like all rookies have and will. Yes we have a very good staff but we will still need to be patient. And until proven otherwise this wide receiver core is a few injuries away from being mostly mediocre. We need a WR for Young to grow with too. We'll see how the draft shakes out. I understand the trade down concept but hopefully Fitterer doesn't try to get too cute. Just get some protection and playmakers around your guy.

Tomorrow’s pressers will be well interesting now.

 

Kyle Bailey at WFNZ just said they sent out the stuff to all the media people randomly out of the blue on Friday

Very well could be announcing Young is the pick.

 

gonna be strange to have a media darling as QB

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Winning ain't gonna make my eyes lie to me. Context matters, and it will always matter in the game of football.

      That TD pass to Legette against Miami. Elite. The play where Bryce rolls right to buy time until Tet can reverse field.  Bryce pumps as multiple defenders close in.  He barely gets it away before he takes a big time hit.  Beautiful off platform throw and great catch by Tet.   The second TD to Tet against Dallas where Bryce dips and turns his shoulder in to evade the pass rusher.  Resets and finds Tet in the end zone. Dude embodies the Keep Pounding mantra.
