I agree we should try and stash him but I honestly believe he would get scooped up rather quickly

Yeah, I think I misunderstood the "protected player" caveat for PS. He could still technically get poached, it just makes it harder to do so.

" Teams can designate four players every week that are protected from being signed by other teams. This protection starts on Tuesday each week, so every practice squad player is still available to be signed to the regular roster of another team after their team’s game that week until the deadline on Tuesday."

but they still count toward your 53 man roster, so essentially he would be taking a space of someone who would in theory participate in a game

You're right on one hand about the overall roster, but there are on 47 active players on game day, so you have to have some inactives on game day (usually 7 players).  The 3rd QB can be technically designated as "inactive/QB3," but you can play him in an emergency, so he is the only one who can be designated "inactive" and still theoretically play, so this is an advantage there and will probably justify keeping him on the 53 man roster.

The other option is to cut Corral and keep someone else on the 53.  Hopefully, he clears waivers and you bring him back as a PS QB who you could elevate to the active roster before a game if Young or Dalton gets hurt (the chances of 2 QB's going down in 1 game is rare, but it does happen and did happen in the NFC Championship game which is what brought about the change).

Anyway, hopefully that explains a little more.  Honestly, had they not changed the inactive/QB3 rule, I think the Panthers would have only went with Young and Dalton.  Given this new rule, I think Corral makes the roster but you can make a good argument against it also IMO.

There is no market for Corral so you might as well hang onto him for this year to see if we can turn him into a back-up.  He's not even good enough to be a 3rd string QB at this point.  

 

I am trying not to poo posts as often as I once did. But this one is so bad I couldn't resist.

I honestly don't see us getting anything for him. He's got no trade value. Granted he's not had many chances to prove himself, but any opportunity he's had to show something, he hasn't.

I guess keep him and hope that with some decent coaching and sitting behind Young and Dalton he can learn some poo.

But overall, my enthusiasm over him last year was misplaced. Some guys have it. I don't see Corral as being one of the "some guys". He's got the tools, but so did Sammy and Baker.

uhhhh no

 The consensus around here seems to be we aren’t a playoff team even with Bryce. If he gets hurt I’d rather see MC out there getting reps than Dalton. I’d rather lose with MC than Dalton. Maybe he will flash and look like trade bait.

It’s hard to comprehend how passionately some fans are against a player who ultimately would be a 3rd string developmental guy. 
 

Why would these people be happier if we went Young/Dalton vs. Young/Dalton/Corral?

 

Are you guys passionate about keeping a 5th TE?

 

Do you think him being around hurts Young?

 

Educate me outside of “he sucks” please. Even if I agreed that “he’s trash” (it’s too early to say imo), why does it matter to you if we keep a “trash” QB in the 3rd spot? 
 

We’ve done it before and I don’t recall this level of animosity.

Its because of he and Young being close in age and experience. They see him as a threat if kept around and Young performs poorly for a little stretch. I see it as Young's team and his job to lose over the course of a couple seasons but they are so blinded in their worry and hatred of Corral that they worry if he remains on the team and develops that Young's job could be threatened one day. If we had both of them for say three seasons and Corral had to come in for Young due to injury and played better consistently time after time or looked like he had developed more and had more of a future I guess I would go with the guy I felt was better suited for the long run. That's no knock on Young as I feel he is far and away the future and think he seems like a truly mature great leader but if Young played bad and was injured for three seasons while Corral stayed healthy and showed to be a force I would have course give the job to Corral as its just smart business but some fans get sop emotionally involved that they cant have it any other way but their own.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
