Hmm, I wonder if the Panthers will FINALLY learn their lesson about overpaying RBs? Like I (and most huddlers on here) have said, you can draft a 5th round RB and be successful, as long as your o-line is solid. RBs are a dime a dozen.

And...it doesn't take a brain surgeon to draft and develop a solid offensive line over a period of 3/4 years. It can be done...IF the GM knows what he is doing. The single most important position group on any team. It keeps the offense on the field and the defense off the field.

But Christian McCaffrey’s are not a dime a dozen. 
 

That’s been my only issue with the “dime a dozen” line.

I was on board trading CMC because paying a RB big money on a rebuilding team is stupid... Great... Until we way overpaid this scrub. Use the money on O-line again and again and again and again and use late round picks on RB or UDFA.  We have the worst GM in the league.

Sadly our HC was born before the first ice age and in that time RB was the way to go.

All of us scratched our collective heads at the signing and the cost. I was optimistic due to his wide receiver ability.His catching ability out of the backfield has been okay.  At best he should be our 3rd down back until Tarik Cohen gets up to football speed. Then let the best man play. Chuba Hubbard should clearly be the starter.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
