He also claimed Will Grier was a better QB than Derek Carr. This was before Grier played a full season game.

Is this why Zod has disappeared from the forum?

To be fair, I wanted Trey Lance so badly a couple of years ago.  I must have made several threads about him.

No, just thought it was relevant to see who was drafted in the same year as Cam.  Here's hoping from this year's draft with Bryce, at least a couple of other pics turn out to be regular starters and contributors.  

Good idea.

And yeah, outside of Newton that draft was a sh-tshow.

I remember when Pilares took that kickoff return back against Detroit some dude on here made a thread saying "ORDERING MY PILARES JERSEY!!!!"

In that thread, several people said “He’s the next Steve Smith!”. This is a theme that you see on this board for any  receiver we have had who is under 5’11” and has a returned a kick or punt with a bit of success and caught a pass or 2.

2012 wasn't much better. 

you had the typical 1st round hit (granted, maybe best player in panthers history), then one game of Frank Alexander, one year of Josh Norman, and that's it. 

but 2011, not even backup quality players; just Cam Newton and training camp fodder. You couldn't randomly pick players that bad.

Or that one game Brandon Hogan played against the Texans where he guided the WR out of bounds and made him ineligible to catch the ball. Genius CB!!

I really thought Frank was going to be someone

another question is how was hurney allowed to keep working after 2010

My conspiracy theory is that Hurney,  a former reporter, had a poo ton of dirt on Richardson and Richardson knew Hurney would blast him leaguewide if he wasn't given a really long leash.

After cam newton was drafted in 2011, the panthers did not draft another offensive CONTRIBUTOR until kelvin benjamin in 2014. They also got trai turner in that draft. 
 

Before that you have to go back to 2008 and Stewart/Otah for starter caliber player. Highlights otherwise would be David gettis and Mike Goodson. 
 

5 seasons of drafts and hurney nailed one offensive starter. And not just that; no one else was even backup quality. 
 

just incredible what cam did here with so little help. 
 

If you really wanna be horrified, imagine the panthers if hurney hadn’t fleeced the bears for Olsen.

      Carolina Panthers pick No. 19-2026 NFL Draft

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Just going off the draft sims and he's always sitting around 20 lol. First year in a while where we haven't been thinking about the draft already in late October so haven't really looked into the top 15-20 picks yet. Also the qb class is super weak so he probably will sneak up into 10-15

      Your Feelings on Bryce Through 3 Seasons? (POLL)

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      I fully expect them to pick up his 5th year , and they're waiting for him to put a full excellent consistent season of QB play in year 4 or 5. If that don't happen,  they'll eventually cut ties.  Here's to hoping he just goes on a team in 2026. The worst thing he could do is continue to see-saw us to around .500 records because it might be impossible to replace him at that point unless youre willing to do the veteran qb carousel poo we did from 2019 to 2023.

      Your Feelings on Bryce Through 3 Seasons? (POLL)

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What do you think of Bryce Youngs career thus far? Are you excited about his progress or is it not enough for you? I included a poll of ranking his performance through 3 years thus far.  I personally think he's made some decent progress. Has had some high moments (last half of 2024, Rams game, ATL game in 2025)  but in my mind, those are still outweighed by the many more lowlights thus far (ex turnovers, missed throws, poor decisions)  It's a very mixed bag for me. He's done enough to get a 5th year option but by no means should we lock him in with a 50+ mil a year multi year deal. I want to see him play consistently well for a full year before that happens (yes, I'm still saying that going into year 4. That might be telling).  Just sucks when you see CJ Stroud, Jayden Daniel's, Caleb Williams almost immediately lighting poo up with their arm talent. Maybe Bryce is just an ultra slow burn. I don't know what to think anymore. Guess we're gonna be stuck with him for a whilr unless we end up being bad enough to earn a high pick next year. I doubted it lol. Overall Stats for his career:       ● 14 W - 30L (regular season)       ● 0-1 playoffs record        ● 61.4% completion, 8291 passing yards, 49 TDs, 30 INTs  Year 1:       ● 2 wins, 14 losses      ● 60% completion rate, 2877 passing yards, 11 TD to 10 INTs, 5.5 yards per attempted pass Year 2:        ● 4 wins , 8 losses        ● 60.9% completion rate,  2403 passing yards, 15 TD, 9 INTs,  6.3 yards per attempted pass  Year 3:        ● 8 Wins, 8 Losses         ● 63.6% competition rate, 3011 passing yards, 23 TDs to 11 INTs  Playoffs         ● 1 game in year 3 ( 0 - 1 in playoffs)         ● 21/40 (52.5% completion rate), 264 passing yards, 1 TD, 1 INT.
