Just standing out in the hot sun while the game was going on and chatting about life and how his adjustment has been so far. He has heard the doubters anyhow. Not a single bit of hard cringe there. He isn't a stranger I just met randomly at Taco Bell

Ah ok, I hope none of our players ever read this message board, the amount of nonsense that gets spewed out including my own lol

You don’t know where they had him ranked tho. They may have had a first round grade on Brooks and shocked they could get him mid second. If you trust your scouting rankings there’d be no reason to wait for next years class when your guys is right there. 
 

just playing devils advocate, I wanted a CB at that pick personally 

If they had a first round grade on any rb then they are effing stupid.

He had never heard of this message board but was aware of the doubters out there so he has apparently heard it from others but isnt phased and responded how id hoped using it to motivate him to prove he deserves where he was drafted. He never needed much motivation anyhow and is a self motivated fella but it came up in talk. I do believe from our conversation that he is going to catch on to all this sooner rather than later and make the fans proud of him but im biased as I said because ive known and genuinely cared about the good natured person he is for a few years now. He stuck out to me before anyone ever knew who he was in practice and after/before games watching how thankful he was to be there and how thankful he was to be looked up to by so many kids (my own being one of them). I have watched him many times over before he was ever known go way out of his way to be gracious, humble, soft spoken and respectful to so many. He is as genuine and legit of a good human being as they get. Now we just need him to get over the learning curve and believe in himself as he began to his last couple years in college. He is one of the hardest workers ive ever been around and that is no fluff piece.

If Bo Jackson, Barry Sanders or Walter Payton came out next year and you knew what you knew about them after some research into them, would you not have a first round grade on either because they were RB's?

I'm tired of excuses and fluff and long term plans when the short term looks like more of the same. Put up or shut up time is here finally this Sunday. 

I'm saving this year's camp confidential til after the season lol.  I watched the last two years and was hype, only to be let down.  I wanna see how it compares in hindsight (which is 50/50) this time.

I stopped watching all the fluff after Tepper brought back Rhule for his 3rd year. They haven't given me a reason to look back yet since then other than picking through the BS they get caught slinging yearly.

    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.  
    • Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
