That's because they value RAS scores more than actually being able to play the game. And that is one thing that makes Young such an odd choice for the Panthers. If they had picked a QB based off RAS like they seem to do every other position, then Richardson would be the Panthers' QB right now instead of any of the others.

Yeah…I am in the IT business and it’s called overthinking the solution.  The more complex you make it the more probable it fails.

Yeah, I was about to say they're obsessed with RAS scores then they draft a 5'10" buck eighty noodle armed QB. It's all just baffling.

Maybe because Tepper was pushing for Bryce?

Young was a really good college QB, so it makes sense that they would look at his body of work instead of the RAS score. But they need to do that for every position.

That's what I don't understand. The body of work screamed great college QB with marginal at very best NFL physical talent.

One more thing about RAS and QBs. If they had went strictly by RAS to make the pick, Levis would probably have been the Panthers' second choice after Richardson.

I don't think they are as simplistic as going strictly off RAS scores but based on their drafts they weight it VERY highly. Wouldn't surprise me if Tepper convinced himself that QB is such a cerebral position that the S2 was the RAS of QB scores.

Is Clemson really storming the field? That's just embarrassing for a program of this caliber.

I mean, I guess I should be flatted but it's just embarrassing

 

Just asking why you should be "flattered" (sic)?  The ACC as a whole is maybe the 4th best football conference and Carolina and Clempson both are mid this year.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
