Doesn't need to be a #1 pick at QB in draft

I am of the belief that the Young experiment is very close to being over. if he shats the bed again against the Chargers, then something has to give. The defense is so bad, that Dalton may only get us three or four wins tops.

Sit Young and put Dalton in. They will get a top pick regardless. Let Canales pick his guy out of the group and coach him up. As we all know, drafting a QB #1 doesn't mean crap anymore. 

If Canales is a QB "whisperer", then give him the guy he thinks will work for him. This fanbase needs a few wins at least to soften the last few years of suckage. Build the defense back up in the draft/FA  and move on.

If the plug gets pulled on Bryce and Dalton becomes the starter the narrative will become: Why is Andy Dalton the Panthers starter and Cam Newton, a year younger than Dalton, sitting @ home making YouTube videos?

Cam wouldn't come back here. Dalton can still make the long throws and Cam can't.  Dalton is the backup soon to be the starter for the remainder of the season.

I caught a youtube short of his podcast this morning, coincidentally. He still wants to play, said he didn't expect to get a call.

Panthers weren't mentioned. No team was.

You don't need the number 1 pick to get a qb. Especially not next year unless somebody goes on a tear. I don't even know if its best to want the pressure of taking another qb number 1 here. If it's couple guys that are good, just pick somebody in a trade down.

At one time I thought he said he would only come back and play for Atlanta because of it being close to his home.  I'm sure his opinion could have changed since then.

Look at the QBs and if one is good enough then pull that trigger. QB over anything else. There is a line here so the excuse it's not a good situation is BS vs last year. 

I wouldn't shy away from another QB in the first. It was that trade and the low ceiling of Young that made this last attempt so awful. Find guys in the 2nd and 3rd that can contribute immediately and that would be a great draft. Have a better backup and a project for the PS or #3 spot. No other position can effect the team as much as a QB in this league. 

I'm not afraid of Dalton playing or a few wins. This team isn't getting out of the top 10. DC needs to show he deserves to make that pick or to even still be here. This team was not well coached on Sunday and the crap he did this preseason was a huge failure.

To even think about talking about tanking after week one is just asinine. If you think a change will make a difference than you do it and TRY to win games even tho the chances are still low. The players deserve that and some of them need to be developed. The whole narrative that if bryce cant change this team around than no one can is just dumbfounded as the people saying it. Hell, we don't freakin no if the team doesn't have the balls to pull him if he is struggling. Like someone else said, doing that at this point would just be admitting you fuged up on the trade and by picking him but this a business and you can't move forward to success unless you own up to the mistakes and try again. You will just be stuck, a laughing stock, and the stadium will be empty.

0% chance they bench Bryce anytime soon.

 

They will give him a full season to prove himself. This team is not good going to Dalton does nothing.

    • And that makes you right. 
    • Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious. 
    • We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
