Corral deserves a fair shot

What do you think of in terms if reps when you say give him an opportunity to compete? I would hate to take reps away from Young, so I’m curious what you think it would look like?

Ummm, enough to at least develop him some in order to have a future backup QB or would you prefer if Bryce ever goes down that we just throw someone into the fire that has never even had any practice reps at all?

I'm not saying MC is the future. But not giving him an opportunity to compete is downright foolish. I think we just look at things differently and that's OK. 1st or 250th, draft position doesn't matter, only results.  You start the guy who gives you the best opportunity to win, no matter where he was drafted. 

And FYI, I don't think MC beats out BY. My hope is we develop him and he shows off enough to be able to trade him like NE with Jimmy G. I don't think he will accept a backup role if he proves to be a decent starter, whether by injury or playing when the game is out of reach. 

I noticed most of the ones who think even giving Corral a shot to develop into a backup in this thread have some sensitive little threatened feelings. For some reason trying to develop Corral into a backup or great trade bait unfortunately is like 3D chess to them. Mostly though they think somehow if any other QB is developed that it means hating on Bryce Young and is a whole Cam Newton situation over again like how Cam had haters for no reason. They are too stupid to realize Bryce is the number one guy and will be moving forward but Corral needs to be developed into a backup or trade bait and not just given his walking papers because they are scared of having another younger QB on the roster for fear it will be another Cam getting hate situation all over again. I mean, we should just talk about the elephant in the room instead of tiptoeing around it. Nobody is stupid here and does not see the narrative they are trying to paint.

I agree with this. It sounded like some folks wanted a 50/50 competition straight up, but I might have misread the comments.

BY should get the majority to start camp, if he's ready to take them, which he should be. AD and MC should split what's left. I would think something like a 65/15(AD)/20(MC) split. Depending on how they respond and progress or regress, adjust accordingly. Rinse and repeat. 

Makes sense. Also, it’s been stated that Dalton doesn’t need that many reps which could potentially shift work to Corrals advantage if he shows progress.  I think BY is first priority and rightfully so, but I don’t think Corral will be an afterthought if he shows promise.

I think the pecking order should be fairly obvious.  Young,  Dalton, and Corral. 

During preseason, Corral should get more play time than Dalton, simply to see if he has anything. 

I don't expect him to beat out Dalton on the depth chart, and nor should he. Dalton is a good QB, and more than good QB2.

How we gonna develop him on the bench?

 

In order for him to get value he has to play games. I think the best way for him to show value is playing in the preseason. We already know what we have in Dalton. Young will get limited playing time as well because he's the starter most likely. Let Corral run the show in the preseason and go from there. If he shows something he might be worth keeping as a backup.

 

People have been trying to tell you this for 2 days. Now, all of a sudden, you are wanting to join in. lol

 

Nobody is proclaiming Matt the starter. All we want is for him to get some solid coaching, which he should get here. Then let the chips fall where they may. 

 

If he becomes an asset? That makes us a better team, and there Will be great rejoicing. And who doesn't love themselves some great rejoicing?

Got the wrong D.

 

Andy Dalton!

You referred to that other "D" QB several times.  Each time my heart skipped a couple of beats and my chest tightened.  Given my family's history of hearts attacking them, that was not nice.

What the heck did I ever do to you? 

And for the denser of our membership, yes, this is all tongue-in-cheek.

As much of a potential mentor as Andy Dalton could be, I think we've got the coaching to negate the need for that aspect in a player. If Corral shows enough promise, I'd much rather dump Dalton and keep the young guy if we only roll with two QBs. I think BY has enough maturity and learning capacity that we won't really being hurt by going with two young QBs.

I been saying this from the start, you just seem to focus on me being a "Brycer". Pay attention and what I said still stands Bryce Young is the present and future of this team.

 

It hurts you when I say that huh?

 

Sure you have. lol

The thing is; Coaches only get so much time with the team. It's the Vet QB that shows the rook the ropes of being a QB. The ins and outs, and the nuances of leading a team. How to study, and how to take care of yourself. And so much more.

 

That Vet QB spends a heck of a lot more time with the Rook than any Coach. And Andy is considered one of the good ones.

We might roll with 3 QBs. Niners did, Eagles did, Steelers just extended Mitch and Mason with Pickett. With 17 game seasons more teams will roll with 3 QBs. We will probably have Young, Dalton, and Corral.

I think they NFL should allow teams to carry 3 QBs and not have the 3rd one count against the 53 man roster.

    • 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.
