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.

Negativity is a hell of a drug.

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.

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

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

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

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
