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.

      Some homers' opinions of the OTs that we may realistically be able to get at 19

      By MHS831 · Posted

      You could say that-- but if we don't need a starting OT this year, why would you draft a flawed one that is not going to play? (We are coming from different underlying assumptions and perspectives--I see your argument and don't disagree with the premise) Your thinking is based on the assumption that an OT for the future is more important than immediate needs at other positions, or that we can meet other needs in later rounds even if we take the OT in round 1.  I do not think there is but 1 OT worthy of a first-round grade---they are mocked based on need and demand--if we do not have a need for a starter right now, a team at 18 may grab a T that is the 33rd best player--worth it if you have no starting T, but not if you have a starter.  So just because they are mocked around the middle of the first it does not mean that the players are good values--teams get desperate.  QBs are a great example.  Simpson may be worth it in round 1 for the Cardinals, but not the Jets, because they have Geno Smith.  Sure, they will need a QB by next year, but taking Simpson is a reach. I do not see our need, with 2 starters (Walker and Moton) and another possibly returning by the end of the season enough to justify ranking OT over positions like Safety, Will LB--I do not think we replaced A Shawn Robinson (We gonna put a NT out there?  Wharton (280lbs)?  So do we reach in round 1 for a player who may not play much or do we get a Will LB that can cover?  A deep free safety?  A quality center? A playmaking TE?  A DT to replace Robinson?  A wide receiver to balance the secondary?  Long term, if the right player was there, you would be right.  Short term, OT is a luxury at this point, in my view.

      We arent switching. Evero is 3-4 to the core. Given how 3-4 has been a noticeable characteristic of top defenses recently and we have drafted and signed players fir it  I dont know why anyone would think that's a good idea
