I wanted Richardson but I had them Richardson, Stroud, Young. But I said at the time that I could be swayed hard by their interviews. I just had extremely serious concerns about Bryce's physical tools.

By the time i finished my personal evaluations, i had it.

Stroud 

Richardson 

Young

Levis 

I was the most unimpressed with Youngs tape but gave him the nod over Levis because of accomplishments. Thats it really.

2nd round pick. Imagine if Jimmy played one more season and the Panthers took him first overall, and Cam went 2nd overall. Thats how bad this is. Its unironically one of the worst draft decisions in NFL history.

You're right. I completely forgot Jimmy was a 2nd round pick.

If Stroud ends up being great and Bryce busts, yeah... this pick and trade up will be a part of sports cautionary tale banter for a loooooooong time.

Not really. It sets you back two years. And what difference does it make if Tepper’s still making the hires and the draft picks? None.

Be honest. Right now Bryce looks like a future sports trivia question answer.

"Who was the QB drafted #1 overall over CJ Stroud after the Panthers traded two 1sts, two 2nds, and DJ Moore to get the pick?"

*everyone nervously chuckles and groans and shakes their head feeling the weight of the cringe*

Will we 'Josh Rosen'' Bryce?  Tepper will clean house before he owns up to this epic blunder even if Bryce ends up being as bad as Rosen.  Rosen was averaging just under a TD a game he started while averaging a pick per game.  He went into a tailspin and was playing worse by the end of his rookie season, not better.  Keeping rookie QBs out there--so they can grow through adversity, can be detrimental rather than beneficial.

Bryce is right there, just slightly better than Rosen, with roughly a TD and pick per game average.

No team in NFL history has traded next year’s first round pick and had that turn out to be the number one pick

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 

His physical limitations notwithstanding, there is reason for optimism. Before yesterday, he had a 90% QBR which is not bad for a rookie. No matter how high your IQ, accuracy or athleticism, you’re not doing diddly-squat if your OL can’t block or run block consistently or WRs can’t get open.

Not saying Young will be a future HOF, but neither Stroud (the one I wanted) and Richardson would look like much with this roster as currently constructed offense- wise.

Bryce ain’t it. Bryce is a bad NFL QB.  The HC is worse than rhule.  Woo wooo. Wooo.  Can’t believe how bad this team is. We aren’t even competitive.  
 

Young is Russell and leaf bad. 
 

fit is fired tmrw. Inside sources btw…

Young is not even as bad as JC Horn and Ekwonu.

I told everyone before the draft that his arm was NFL average at best and that it was my opinion he had a below average NFL arm. But his arm is significantly worse than I thought. When he doesn't have plenty of runway to step up he can't generate any velocity at all.

And this has been shouted from the rooftops by some. Since his Pro Day in my case. Took very little squinting to see the light. 

Kind of like our society, it is definitely a parallel. People are in a place where just saying something seems to make it true for them. Reality be damned. 

It isn’t that he can’t make some plays and some throws and probably win some games. 

It IS that you do not ever even consider doing what was done to get him on the Panthers. You don’t under any circumstances. My rule prior, for sure my rule post.

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

      I can always count on yout to put things so delicately lol. I'm still not sold on the fact that Tepper will make them keep him if they don't see him as a long term answer.

      holy poo... this thread inspired me to keep trying to guess passwords to various alts I've created over the years and I finally got in! I pretty much accepted my fate as a lurker for the last several months because I could not remember my password. I didn't realize that new users couldn't join either, that explains things. I have been around for years under several different monikers, through the good and bad. I too always find myself coming back here even with all of the new social media options for Panther fan engagement. It's simply nostalgic.   I do get extremely annoyed with the same 5-10 posters shitting on Bryce and complaining about everything. It's unfortunate that half of them are mods and that nobody new can join because now I pretty much just come on here and see Bryce / Panther slander. There is barely any positivity to be had. We all watch this team and hang on this forum for entertainment purposes only. We have no control or say in anything. I used to be such a crazy ass fan that would argue with strangers about Cam newton on the internet and at games. Now, as a father of 3, a business owner and someone with way gnarlier life problems - I like to watch football and talk about football as an escape. Not to bitch more. I really like the direction of the team and will root anyone in a Panthers jersey. I live down the street from the Rams practice facility, Matthew Stafford is currently coaching his daughters flag football team in the same program I coach my sons. I have two highly ranked Rams staff members sons on my team. The way we beat them and had them on the ropes in the playoffs has me feeling amazing, and you would think we have the next great thing in Bryce with the way they all speak of him. I'm gonna ride that high and be a delusional fan, I hope that huddle can stick around or get fixed and perhaps I will get back to posting more now that I can log in again. I will do my best to not get banned. Keep Pounding!

      Well, if they know Tepper wants to keep Bryce there is an an implied safety net there in case he fails. A possibility that he will be empathetic and •maybe• not fire them.  If they go against that and bring in someone else and that fails they are in a much worse spot.  IMO.  And another factor may be that after all those years of instability and musical chairs pre Bryce there will likely be a feeling of security in knowing what they have.   Kind of like settling just to keep from going through the process all over again.     IOW I think he really needs to fug up bad to lose his job and change our course.
