I blame fitt because he and his staff supposedly had a 1rst round grade on MC and God knows what on Howell and traded up and then cut a year later.  One of those qbs is out of the league and the other is 2-0.  Thats an issue.  And it doesnt matter what other teams did its what we did.  Not sure why that even matters.  

If he cannot be judged by that situation then whats the point even?  Seems stupid to give him a pass on it.  Howell has looked like a nfl starter and Corral is God knows where at the moment.  At some point you have to take accountability for your choices.  How did your staff rank him so high and yet his career is effectively over.  Thats the problem

 

And where in any of my posts am I giving up on Bryce? 

From what we were told then Ben McAdoo was an advocate for drafting Corral. I will agree that was a mistake, we agree on that. If we had not drafted Corral I still am not sure that the choice would have been Howell. Howell had a fantastic sophomore year at Carolina. His junior year he did not look very NFL worthy. He lost 2 running backs to the NFL, he also lost 2 receivers. He did not have the supporting cast on the UNC team to support him and it was reflected in his draft ranking.

You really think two egomaniacs in Matt Rhule and David Tepper let Ben McAdoo pick their QB no questions asked?

I did not say they let him pick him. There were several articles written then that stated that that was who McAdoo wanted. They must have considered his input.

Dude, this is my last post on this because its so fuging stupid.  But do you honestly in your heart of hearts think every scout in the building and then every coach all thought Young was the #1 guy from the jump?  That is probably the most retarded thing I have read today on here.  Young isnt some Luck or Lawrence type generational talent. 

Not what it says...

The paragraph states that all of their scouts had the same opinion on Young, which isn't hard to believe at all. That doesn't necessarily mean they all thought he should be the pick, just that they all evaluated him similarly.

To be clear though, it also wouldn't be that hard to believe everyone ranked Young as the best. That doesn't require he be a generational prospect, just that he's the best available in this draft.

The entire staff gets input on their respective positions, and that's not unique to the Panthers.

McAdoo was the OC, so yeah he'd have input on the QB spot.

Says the dude making stuff up 

As I said, you don't keep up. Please. Find the quote where someone said there was a Burrow, etc. in the 2023 draft. You won't find it. The evaluation of Young was he "would be" in that category if he were three inches taller. Richardson? Definitely not. Stroud. The evaluation of him was he couldn't improvise. Accurate passer stuck with his primary receiver. NONE of these guys were projected to be great, franchise QBs like Williams or Maye. As I said, keep up. You're just on here talking out your ***. My guess is you have no idea how to do a little research. What I just wrote was readily available last spring for anyone who can read.

      Bryce Young #34 on Chris Simms' top 40 list

      By frankw · Posted

      Even all the rookie QB's who haven't played a single snap ranked above him? I really hope Bryce is using all this as motivation in some capacity. Because if this doesn't motivate him I don't know what will.

      Of course. That’s what I said. Bad goalie play and the style of defense. Florida played amazing.  Rods decision to stick with a struggling Freddie cost us. Plus, Florida may be more talented than us and they play a very heavy game. Something we don’t do well minus Svech.  Glad the rangers lost.

      For Bryce Young and Dave Canales, the emphasis is on details

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      You should because before the preseason fiasco and the start of the season fiasco, all the reports, including Frank’s responses, were that Fitterer and Reich were in lock step. Remember the press conference where Fitterer talked about both he and Frank saying who they wanted before and after the draft process and that they both picked Young and it was glorious? People got hung up on Tepper saying the point guard analogy in April when Brown was interviewed by a Panthers reporter describing how a QB needs to be a point guard in huge detail. That was in February. I think Tepper was just parroting Brown to make himself look like he knew what he was doing. Mrs. Tepper hugging Bryce always overshadowed CJ saying how he called her Mama Tepp. We fuged up as a team, probably more so because Fitterer always said he had Young as his #1 the year before, probably because we looked at all the QBs that year as well. Reich’s love for CJ started when he got on the hot seats for frankly doing a horrific job. He's been in the league a long time and has a lot of media friends and that was a face saving CYA which we know well with many years of Hurney. Still amazing to think how much better the team was under Rhule/Hurney before Fitterer got any control when Rhule was on the hot seat.
