Young makes sense

The Panthers value players on rookie contracts. That how you win in today's NFL. Young will step in and play right away. You get 4 to 5 years of a starting QB on a rookie deal and you have enough resources to put talent around him and also build depth. Successful teams have depth, and the Panthers have not had it the past several seasons.

Young's intellect and processing suggest that he will learn the offense and be able to apply those skills to the NFL right away. He's done it at every level so far. 

Additionally, the Panthers will continue to have QBs on the roster (Corral, Eason, draft) to develop behind Young and provide insurance.

$50 million is a lot of cap to dedicate to one player. Its ok with me if we get 4 years of top level play out of Young so that we have options when its time for him to get paid the big bucks. The Panthers will have someone ready to step in and start on a cheaper deal if they can't keep him on a reasonable salary.

Young is shorter and lighter than Tua. Please explain to me what will prevent this from happening to him?

Stroud is also skinnier and lighter than Tua.  Also not good at handling pressure.

He has elite processing, reactions, and ability to avoid contact. Have you not been paying attention?

Young, Stroud, Richardson all make sense. Whoever we like best, I like best.

I agree. Richardson and Stroud may or may not be ready to take on an NFL offense. The consensus is that Young is.

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By strato · Posted

      We’re in a pickle. My best hope is we protect him and can run the ball vs most Ds and the WRs are healthy so he has every chance to not look like what he looked like in too many games last year.

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.
