The only conclusion I can make is the Panthers enjoy shitting on their own fanbase.

I mean surely there were better UDFA options at quarterback. But again this seems to go back to the suspicion that they didn't want anyone that would remotely threaten Bryce Young.

In fairness, he is the third string QB. It's been very many years since we had a 3rd string QB capable to even challenge for a 2nd string spot.

Perhaps. PJ Walker was miles better than this and a lot of people said he was garbage. So idk what that makes Jack Plummer lol

Panthers have been wasting opportunities, draft picks & time for a decade. Do you expect them to have a system that can find & develop talent when they show no desire at any level of the franchise to be competitive with the best teams?

Hoping for a miracle September, but we're currently seeing zero promise.

Maybe they are trying to see just how deep into the realm of suck he is capable of taking the offense? Like they are searching for some 5th dimension level of suck poo perhaps?

My biggest concern is how do you evaluate wide receivers

Yes but even PJ wasn't capable of challenging for a 2nd string spot in reality. 

Plummer is not an NFL player, nor will he be. 

There is really no sense even fretting over him. At any point he would possibly see the field we will see a mad scramble to sign free agent QB's. And we will also be assured of a #1 overall pick for the third straight year.

He’s just here because he’s been here. Why would they spend time teaching a new QB the system, plays, language, etc. for 3rd/4th string that won’t make the team? I’d prefer they focus elsewhere idk about you. It’s clear they place very little value in these preseason games and value practice way more.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By strato · Posted

      I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
