Not the worst draft pick, but I think the worst trade in NFL history all things considered (Bryce is bad, but he's not Leaf/Russell bad).

It's also totally different than the 49ers Lance trade because they had a fully built out team, they took a shot on what a lot of people felt could be an elite QB, it at least made sense to go for that move.

This one never made sense to me, I never saw it with Bryce, his physical limitations were a huge red flag from day 1, I just tried to trust the "football people" that he had this super brain that would allow him to overcome those issues, spoiler alert, it won't.

We traded away a stupid haul only to take the most physically limited QB ever taken in the first round of the draft, let alone #1 overall.

I think this is a perfect take. 
 

Would give you pie but I ran out of it earlier. Will try to come back tomorrow and get you some.

Outside of the corner throw to (I think hurst) for 30 yards, did we have any other pass attempt that went beyond 5 yards in the game? And I'm being 100% serious

I’ve never watched a qb with a lesser YPA. 
 

I’m sure they are out there, but I’ve never actually watched them.

Our moron front office hoped he had Tom Brady IQ/awareness. Unfortunately Bryce has jamarcus Russell IQ/awareness without the athleticism of jamarcus. Just a god awful draft pick

Missing on CJ hurts the most…but AR and Levis also look better than Bryce. We traded up to #1 to take the worst of the 4…

The truth that nobody wants to address.

 

We took the worst QB of the 4.

 

It shows you we hired the wrong people and Tepper has no idea how to run a franchise. The dead giveaway was when they traded up to #1 Frank said Bryce Young was the guy all along. All that draft combine stuff was just due dillegence.

 

We are a joke!

Because we won some meaningless games against bad teams down the stretch last year with a very conservative game plan that wouldn't translate to a full season of success.

These guys looked at that and convinced themselves that if we just add a legit franchise QB and an offensive savant we'd be right there. Then they drafted Bryce Young and hired Frank Reich. 😂

It's also mostly the same crew who saw us barely win a few and trade for Gilmore at 3-2.  I remember them even talking playoffs after that trade in the presser lol.  Fitt is done.  It's all a matter of blowing the entire thing up from scouting department to long term ST guys at this point.

I wanted CJ. My guy just threw for the rookie record single game I believe today? I think ownership had BY from the start and even Tepper admitted it when he told Bryce "We'll see you in Carolina next year" at the Superbowl the year prior.

My biggest concern is showing up with our line. At bama BY would be 7 yards back from the line of scrimmage. It worked there because believe it or not they have good players there. It does not work in the NFL. Literally gives the D a straight shot at him every time. 

It's my hope that they will find a way to have some sort of success but by that time BY will be probably be shaken so bad that it'll be a lost cause.

I will stand by my take that I had after week 1, the kid doesnt have a nfl arm.  Its brutally obvious after today.  Goddamn he floats his passes

I made that observation early on and got shat all over. I would have passed on him when he played the games with his weight at the combine and wouldn't throw. He wouldn't throw because he didn't want his noodle arm to have a radar gun on it.

Yeah that 5yd TD throw to the outside took till Christmas to get there. It looked bad out there today.

His arm today was not the problem. The 2 abhorrent picks were on screens to our jabronie RBs. Not saying today wasn’t fuging demoralizing but nothing about his arm is the problem

The incompetence in the Panthers organization from the top down is the reason we are long-term motherfuged.  There’s no two ways about it. I wanted Stroud and now, for who knows how many years, I get to see what he does in Houston while we suck into eternity.

Bryce Young has zero passion for this game.  He shows absolutely no emotion, even after he threw his second pick 6.  He literally used the term " It is what it is" during his post game press conference.  WOW!  Of course he threw in the obligatory, " I need to do better" and "We can do better" BS, but at the end of the day,  I don't think he is that competitive or really cares.  Add that in with his lack of Athleticism and arm strength and this will go down as one of the worst draft picks in NFL history.

      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

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      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.
