Man you are really losing it.  WTF are you even talking about at this point?  We are more than likely drafting the QB you didn't want.  You also wanted us to draft Trask, Strong, and think Corral is the answer.  Maybe it's a good thing they aren't picking "your guy" based on the data of the Huddle.   Get over it.

Lol, yeah I hate to say it but he's been unhinged for months now at this point. I remember him telling me that the Panthers wouldnt draft a QB high this year cause they drafted Corral last year..

We hope. I'd be lying if I said I was certain about it though. I think Burrow's arm is quite a bit better. Young's reliance on winding up and stepping in concerns me. 

I don’t know where the narrative comes from that he has to do some big wind up for down field throws. I’ve seen him pretty effortlessly throw a ball with relatively low trajectory 50 air yards. That’s plenty of arm strength. All I see with the stepping in complaint is you don’t like proper form for some reason. There’s plenty of guys with big arms that over rely on those arms and get in bad habits throwing off their back foot, or don’t develop the same level of touch that the more “average” armed QBs do. He’s got plenty of arm.

Burrows arm now is definitely better, as a prospect I’d argue they were very similar. Arm was one of his only debated issues coming out, you can find articles about how hard he worked to increase his velocity and arm once he got to the nfl.

From watching him play. I don't question his ability to generate velocity or go deep in a clean pocket. But that doesn't always happen in the NFL. I don't know if I've ever seen him throw a rope or go deep with pressure in his face. It's a legit concern.

His and Mahomes' ability to throw on the move is just unreal. Those two guys can seemingly throw the same all running, falling away, whatever as they can standing in a clean pocket. It's a big part of their game and what makes them elite. Mahomes clearly has the bigger arm, but they share that same off platform ability.

As an LSU fan, I can tell you Bryce possesses that same ability. He’s the best Qb prospect since Burrow, imo.

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.. 

That's never been proven. You're speculating in reference to coaches being anti-Young or pro-Stroud.

      Post Draft Luke and JJ Podcast

      By GamecockSmitty4 · Posted

      Here’s a summary of the JJ and Luke podcast transcript. Opening / Bryce Young Fifth-Year Option     •    JJ: Breaking news — Panthers picked up Bryce Young’s fifth-year option at $25.9M, guaranteed, coming in 2027. Combined with his 2025 salary of ~$6M, that’s $31M over two years — called it a “no-brainer.”     •    Luke: Enthusiastic about the move. Highlighted Bryce’s improving TD/INT ratios (11/10 → 15/9 → 23/11) and the value of entering year three with Dave Canales. Noted $25M is a bargain relative to the $60M top of market. Luke’s Personal Update — Charlotte Christian Football     •    Luke: Working with Charlotte Christian school football program, which hired a new head coach. Coaches include Greg Olsen, Luke, and Greg’s dad Chris Olsen (a New Jersey State coaching Hall of Famer).     •    JJ: Jokingly quipped that Charlotte Christian’s coaching staff is “the world’s greatest” — a Fox analyst, a Hall of Famer, and the best Panthers RB ever — all coaching middle school football.     •    Luke: Praised Chris Olsen’s deep football knowledge spanning decades and his ability to connect with kids. Round 1, Pick 19 — Monroe Freeling, OT, Georgia     •    JJ: Panthers were on the clock and submitted their pick almost immediately — a sign of confidence and preparation. Freeling is 6’7”, 320 lbs, played in the SEC in a pro-style system.     •    Luke: Loved the pick. Emphasized you can never have too many quality offensive linemen. Noted Freeling’s size, athleticism, and arm length as key traits. Said the pick also reflects team’s philosophy of drafting great people, not just great players.     •    JJ: Noted reporter Darren Gantt compared Freeling favorably to Jordan Gross — bigger, heavier, and faster — as a potential franchise left tackle.     •    Luke: Pointed out that young players like Freeling still have physical development ahead of them, comparing the trajectory to Christian McCaffrey’s growth from age 20 onward. Round 2, Pick 49 — Lee Hunter, DT, Texas Tech     •    JJ: Panthers traded up from 51 to 49 (pick swap with Minnesota) to grab Hunter. Played audio from Panthers area scout Kaden McLuhan, who scouted Hunter.     •    Scout Kaden McLuhan (audio): Said Hunter’s size is immediately striking, and that everyone around him spoke glowingly about his character, energy, and love for the game.     •    Luke: Praised Hunter as a massive (6’3”, 320 lbs, ~34” arms) two-gap nose tackle who fits perfectly in the Evero defense. Compared his prospect profile to Akiem Hicks. Said having Derek Brown, Bobby Brown, Derrick Brown, Terson Wharton, and now Hunter creates varied body types that stress offensive linemen.     •    JJ: Noted Hunter ranked third among all prospects in run-stuff rate and sixth in interior pass-rush win rate — addressing a perception that he couldn’t rush the passer. Rounds 3–7 Highlights     •    Luke: Highlighted WR Brazle (3rd round, 6’4”, 437 speed, 1,000+ yards at Tennessee) as the vertical threat the offense needed. Also praised OL Sam Heck (5th round) as a technically sound player whose “short arms” caused him to fall but who has proven himself.     •    Luke: Mentioned CB Will Lee (6’1”, 33” arms) fits the Panthers’ DB prototype — big, long corners.     •    Luke: Praised S/LB hybrid Zaki Wheatley (5th round, 6’3”) as a big nickel similar to Trayvon Merek.     •    Luke: Excited about the linebacker competition between Devin Lloyd, Trevvin Wallace, and Claudin Cherless.     •    JJ: Noted Panthers had the #1 “steal/overreach” rating in the entire draft — drafting players lower than consensus big boards projected. Around the League     •    Luke: Admitted being “a little jealous” that the Miami Dolphins drafted LB Jacob Rodriguez (Luke’s favorite LB in the draft). Has personal connections to Miami’s coaching staff (Jeff Hafley, DC Shawn Dugen — a childhood teammate).     •    Luke: Also noted Miami’s selection of OT/G Kaden Proctor out of Alabama, who will likely move to guard. League Trends — Bigger Tight Ends / 12 & 13 Personnel     •    JJ: Observed the NFL saw its highest run rate in ~11 years (~52%) and a notable pivot toward big blocking tight ends in this draft.     •    Luke: Explained the cyclical nature of NFL offense/defense evolution — as defenses get smaller to match spread offenses, teams counter with bigger personnel (12/13 formations), which then forces defenses to get bigger at the nickel/“big nickel” spot. Called it an ongoing arms race.
