This isn't Bryce Youngs fault

Never will blame Young. Don't hate the kid. I mean why would I? But as you said he just isn't an NFL talent. But unfortunately we are stuck with him for at least 4 years, unless we can get someone to trade for him. So we have to hope this year is just rookie crap. Because number 9 is gonna be lining up at center whether we want him to or not.

But yeah this is all on the FO and effing dumbass Tepper.

No, Bryce is gone after next season.

The fact that we apparently went all in after the combine where he refused to throw is comical. Sometimes all you can do is laugh.

After he failed to do anything but show up and do nothing except weigh in then refused to come out of that hoodie. Dude was probably carrying an extra 20 pounds from the buffet and tanked up with water just to weigh in.

It's the systematic failure of a horrible organizations fault. This kid has proven at an extremely fast rate he's not nfl qb material. He lacks size, he lacks arm talent, he lacks speed, he lacks height,  and he lacks what they said he had and that's processing. His pro day throwing was the least impressive of the big 3 on the board. They ignored it  because of a nice dinner and a test that will now be a joke for years and years. This is all on the Tepper and his organization.  

Is that you Mrs. Tepper?

I agree except for being stuck with him for 4 years. He should go to the bench now and not play again until he can win the job.

I would bet dollars to donuts that the staff and FO was all in on Stroud after the combine but then the infamous dinner happened with young and the teppers got involved and the rest is history

The wrong pick can set you back a decade...lets HOPE YOU ARE ALL WRONG and he's the right pick!!!!!  #KeepPounding

That really is more reflective of the days before everything was dictated by the rookie wage scale. But, to your point, that was brought into being for situations exactly like this, where teams have made a pick that is not looking the part.

    • i love people with no medical experience making tenuous assumptions based on, uh, the fact his dad sucked in every practical lab in med school and had to go into psychiatry its fun to think of what these same fans would be saying with any other profession "well his dad was a cardiologist so obviously he knows how to stay calm." "well his dad was a neurologist so oviously he keeps his brain waves at a low level and isn't at risk of seizure, which is good (obviously)." "well his dad is a surgeon so he knows how to overcome his lack of confidence over height." "well his dad was a pediatrician so that's why he looks like a child, but kids don't get injured easily and have limitless potential so-"
    • Oh it’s made the decision easier knowing we were years away from competing. He just obviously didn’t think it was some sort of clown show as he took a job with that staff and still hangs around to help. Injuries were the major concern. Willis retired “early” as well, plus there was another very young LB in SF that did. Positions that take a lot of impact are starting to not push themselves too late in their careers to protect their long term health. 
    • Obviously his health was the reason but the state of the team definitely helped. Luke doesn't strike me as someone who cares about individual accomplishments much at all. He loved the game and he wanted to win with the Panthers.  He wouldn't risk his life to go chase a ring elsewhere. It was difficult for him to step away from a team that was bad, if the Panthers were serious contenders I really think he would have tried to see it through.  Everything worked out the way that it was meant to in the end. It was sad seeing his career cut short but if he had a suffered a serious injury from football I can't even imagine. EDIT: To be clear I don't think the medical staff was part of his decision at all. It just helped that the team was far from winning a SB when he bowed out.
