Say this Bryce thing doesn't work out... how far back is the Franchise set?

Williams has more red flags than a hurricane warning in Florida. He is already planting the seed that he will go back to USC if he is gonna be drafted by a team he doesn’t want to play for 

What would his red flags be and why is he universally considered the top prospect over Maye in this draft?

To answer the chicken little question, we're honestly not in horrible shape long term. 

We don't have a first in 2024, but have it in 2025. Realistically speaking we will know if Bryce is that dude by the end of next season heading into the 2025 draft where we can then re-evaluate and take another QB if necessary. 

We aren't in horrible long term shape, just mid short term shape in terms of draft assets due to the lack of first round pick next draft.

Peyton's arm wasn't elite but it was good. Better than Bryce's. Don't let the old frankenneck version make you forget.

I'm not sure it was.  He had average to below average NFL arm strength (good not great is a common term used).  That's about where Bryce is IMO.  They are both rhythm throwers who have elite accuracy and throw to where the WRs are going to be before they are there.  It makes for some bad misses when the wrong routes are ran, but is a thing of beauty when it's firing on all cylinders.  Reggie Wayne and Marvin Harrison Sr were elite route runners which paired perfect with Peyton's arm/style.

BY arm is comparable to the Mannings, Brady, Brees and Matt Ryan.. Above Avg not Holitzer arms..  Some ppl want to act like he is Chad Pennington or something.. His arm is actually comparable to Russell Wilson.:

The craziest part of this sub is that the Falcon fans at the game were honestly all very favorable about how Young looked, almost everyone agreed he looks like he will be the best QB in the division after some time to get used to the NFL. If you go and look at his picks the safety is just jumping the routes, thats an easy fix. Call better game plans during the game or look off the safety.

He looked like Teddy light to me but there are 16 more to go. 

All I do know is that tickets are not selling and I am very interested to see what the home crowd looks like this week. It's been really bad in Pantherland and this was not a game to improve the mood.

Haven’t we been saying that almost every year since Cam left?

 

 

No, just the past couple.  I was willing to see the Darnold experiment, at least year one, through.  What I have been harping on for the past several drafts was OT (check--Ickey) Safety (Chinn?) and TE.  Add WR to that list now along with edge rusher.  With the M*A*S*H unit at corner, might as well get some insurance there too.

I think a lot of folks don't recall Manning in his prime because of how diminished he was at the end.

I have faith that Bryce will have an above average to good career. The only thing that concerns me is the durability which remains to be seen.

I do NOT have faith that he is going to have the right people around him. 
 

But for sake of argument say that by year 3 he is not going to be a franchise QB. It will have put us behind around 5 years. A year for the lost draft capital. 2 years for finding and developing a true number 1 WR, and then probably another 2 years to take a swing at developing another QB out of the draft unless we have a shot at one in FA

nah, get Wilson out of that convo. Young and Wilson don't have comparable arms coming into the NFL.

    • CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers coach Dave Canales said Friday that starters will play in the first two preseason games, stopping just short of admitting he made a mistake last season holding them out. The plan includes playing quarterback Bryce Young, who got off to a historically bad start to the 2024 regular season that got him benched after opening 0-2. Carolina opens their preseason schedule Friday at home against Cleveland, followed by an August 15 road game at Houston and August 21 home game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.   Canales said he will evaluate after the first two games whether starters will play in the third game. "Kind of going through it last year, we had a mix of veteran players, but [this is] predominantly a pretty young team,'' said Canales, who has at least six new starters to the defense that was the worst in the league a year ago. "I just can't pass up the opportunities. The reps in games are valuable. "[But] it goes to the night before, when guys know they're going to go out there, they've got to make a decision to play football. So it starts the night before with the prep. You start thinking about your plan, taking care of your body, making sure you get your rest.''   https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45880676/panthers-starters-play-first-2-preseason-games-says-coach
    • You call the Cowboys purely for information, but we don't have the assets to pull off any realistic trade. Also, even if they would consider any trade, it's more likely they want to do it with an AFC team.
