Panthers Fans React to Scott Fitterer Firing | Carolina Blitz

I mean, if you put all these moves side by side, included the trade info, the RAS scores and the positions, I couldn't tell you which moves are his and which aren't.

I hope I am wrong but this feels like another case of, "Boy none of these guys are still on the team from that 2024 draft" in about 3 seasons. 

I am just starting to accept that this is what happens when the franchise is so dysfunctional. That's why all those Bengals, Lions and Browns drafts all got panned at the time and even more so afterwards. It's just endemic to the situation. Bad franchises do this to themselves.

this draft profile from wallace feels like I have read it over and over the past 4 years

 

Strengths: Elite athlete, sideline-to-sideline range, can blitz and rush off the edge

Weaknesses: Doesn't trust his eyes, often gets fooled out out of position, relies too much on natural ability

The Carolina Panthers' investment in Kentucky linebacker Trevin Wallace is far more about potential than what he currently is.

Wallace is a fantastic natural athlete and had a 9.34 relative athletic score (out of 10), according to Pro Football Network's Kent Lee Platte. But his instincts and natural feel for the game aren't quite there yet.

Panthers general manager Dan Morgan played linebacker in the NFL for seven years. He must see something in Wallace that he thinks can be developed into a three-down, second-line defender over time.

Grade: C

      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.
