Surprise, no.

Disappointment, yes.

Seems that you are in the Acceptance stage. Just hang in there and it will be all right. If you are correct in your assumptions, then it will be apparent by the end of next year. If you are wrong, then you may have grown to believe in Bryce by then.

I don't see how anyone can not be excited regardless of the QB taken. 

We have hope, regardless of who we pick. We have no idea what QB is actually going to succeed in the NFL. The draft is a crapshoot that way.

I can't get worked up for not picking "my guy" anymore. I didn't want Jimmy Clausen. I didn't want Herbert. I wanted Zach Wilson. I thought Burrow was going to be a stud. I know poo about fug.

I'm letting the guys with the actual knowledge and experience pick the guy they think will best succeed and I'm behind the pick 100% regardless of who it is. 

I honestly don't have a favorite either. I just hope whoever it is that they have the least annoying fans showing up here.

If I can pull for Randy fasani, Chris Weinke, Jimmy Clausen, David Carr, Sam darnold, teddy, baker, Brian st piere etc (I am sure I am missing some other scubs) then its going to take little to no effort to fully embrace our #1 pick Bryce Young.  At this point for me beggars cant be choosers and we've been in a dark place for half a decade.  I pray this dude proves me wrong and makes me eat crow by staying healthy and winning the division and hosting a playoff game.  That should be the goal of 2023.  So fug it lets roll.

I think the blind homerism for everyone's guy will calm down once the draft is over. I certainly expect to see some folks angry at the pick and others overjoyed, but I would be all for anyone doing any kind of excessive gloating or insufferable whining to at least get hit with the time out hammer. It has been rough enough already.

If we are lucky, we could all at least mostly unite under the, "well at least it's not Levis banner."

 

Right?......... right....?

I want to hear more about the diet plan!

I'm just happy that JJ points out that his playing weight will be around 194. I don't think that manufactured 204 combine weight fooled anyone. No need to BS us, the young man is a hell of a QB.

    • They know within 15 mins.  Many moons ago skins drafted Heath Shuler at like 5th overall and Gus Frerotte in the late rounds. You know the plan, its Heaths team. Old OLman stink said within 15 minutes they knew Gus was the better QB.  I didn't need 15 or players on the same field, I just knew like Bill said "he better walk on water", which he hasn't. I do blame tepper mainly for it, he spend the greater part of 2 year telling everyone Watson would be a panther......and fail....but a great fail...then Stanford turned panthers down.....tepper was beyond pissed and wanted a QB. He forced the trade and picked BY......and now by .....some grace of the gods formed a team with 4 QBs of no hope...... insane given the other roster spots.....
    • He definitely knows nothing about the Panthers, but there’s no denying he’s a pioneer in this whole draft grading and mock draft field.
    • I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep.
