So, what are the chances of this whole thing being Tepper paying an assload of money to all these coaches, Fitt being his yes man to do the trade to #1, all because he decided he wanted a QB and he likes Bryce? These coaches aren't going to say no to what he was willing to pay, even if it's just for a year or two. If it was out of this world talent I'd buy it, but I gotta wonder if this is Tepper just gambling with all his money he's bored using on face value purchases

Tepper had already said straight up "He wants a QB". Tepper had been very social and making a visit with Youngs family and had a chat for a few hours about Bryce the whole time he and his wife were there and even had dinner with them. All I read about was Fitterer and whoever else was involved was all in on getting Young.

I'm not doubting Youngs talent, just curious about Tepper leading the charge for trading up after the Watson/Stafford/Wilson strike outs, and how much the actual coaching staff really likes Bryce as an ideal fit

Seem like the whole staff was on Young at this point.. Most of the really tapped in media members have been calling this for weeks.. Shefter, King, Mortenson we’re calling this a week and a half ago..  Lance and Walterfootball (I don’t like ) pretty much have been saying this from the beginning..

That is why I said that. I wonder if Tepper has interfered with the choosing of Young in the draft. I'm not saying he is but what he did kind of makes one wonder though. Like you said about are certain staff members were against and some for it as a split between them between Young and Stroud..

even in case of a split would it be the case that the owner breaks the tie?? I could see if it was all the FO and coaching staff is against this and Tepper is over ruling them.. But by all reports it’s not that way.. It seem like more want Young in that building then don’t..

when the owner can overpay the coaches to do what he wants yeah they'll say that. If we sucked into the #1 pick sure, but this massive trade up for a gamble seems Tepperish to me

I’m sorry I’m not in to conspiracy theories.. I can only see what  is put infront of me.. Young has been called the best QB in the draft for a long time by more  ppl then the Teppers.. Mccwon before being employed did a breakdown where he was glowing about Young.. Brown says he wants a PG at QB while most scouts and analysts compare Young to Curry.. At some point you have to acknowledge the bread crumb trail..

Even Fitterer has talked glowingly of Young. I recall a tweet from a Panthers podcaster (with accompanying photo) from November where Fitterer (allegedly) spoke heaps of praise about Bryce Young. This move seems very Fitterer-ish if anything. 

Bryce Young has  been the best QB in this draft for 2 years now.

Reich has talking glowingly about Young, they all have consistently.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By frankw · Posted

      I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
