I also wouldn't mind seeing Plummer get a couple games.  I know.  Preseason.  Against backups.  But he did show improvement.  If he even turns into a serviceable backup, that would be amazing.

That list of FA's is bad.  Like.  Real bad.  Dalton might be the best of them, unless Darnold has figured it out after hanging out with Kyle Shanahan and Kevin O'Connell.

The list is bad, but someone can always get cut before FA. They should be one or two other options by TC next year…they might not be any better but you never know.

Russell Wilson is the only one clearly better than Dalton. He is also the least likely to come here and the least likely for us to afford.

I would say that list shows that we really better nail the QB in the coming draft.

Would be a reconnect opportunity for Canales. Russ doesn’t need much money. He is still getting paid by Denver.

Don't give him a signing bonus. There is talk that this lingering calf thing is possibly a precursor to an achilles issue. The person cited a couple of other players as precedents but I wasn't really paying attention can't say which guys.

Someone with achilles issues though, that started out as calf irritation, inflammation, something like that. 

It comes from a guy doing a Pittsburgh focused youtube thing, maybe last night. I wouldn't bet money on it but it might be something.

He could develop. He has the big arm, frame, and the physical make up for sure. I mentioned Mason Rudolph earlier for this. (6ft 5/ 235lbs). He did really well in a terrible Matt Canada offense for years but I think he got a bad wrap because he had to follow up Roethlisberger after all those years. He's also a SC native and about the same age as Geno and Baker when Dave got them on track.

      Joe Person: Panthers are NOT expected to extend Bryce Young before the 2026 season

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      But that's the point, if the locker room feels that way, then you're going to upset them by still keeping Bryce around and playing him over the Top 10 pick, as opposed to bringing in a vet to start until the rookie is ready. Again, it goes one of 3 ways... 1. Bryce plays well enough to earn an extension 2. Bryce still sucks and we draft his replacement who starts Week 1 with a new QB as his backup 3. Bryce still sucks, we draft his replacement in the 1st, but they start the season backing up a new vet QB who was brought in to be his mentor. With an OUTSIDE chance at a 4th option where Bryce plays well enough to convince the team to let him play out the 5th year option and then make a decision.  Which I can't see it happening, but there is still a non zero chance of that happening I guess. The only way we draft a QB next year and still have Bryce on the roster, is if we're taking someone in the middle rounds hoping to develop them as a long term backup to Bryce.

      Brown on BY9 while talking to Chris Long

      I hear you. But I am not absolving Legette just because he is from my neck of the woods or anything else.  Tge comment was more about the fans uneven application of blame.  I do agree that there is a noticeable disconnect between him and the QB and that he might do better with a more polished and capable delivery man.  Abd don’t feel that they used XL right, or at least how I expected it to look.  And that could be a function of a reticent WB that shies away from that style of attack. I mean it was either him or Canales that pretty much eliminated downfield from the playbook - even while we see guys running free at times. It Could work if they commit to it.  Whoever isn’t committing.

      Lot of passion there.  Look, if Bryce plays down to the level that we feel the need to draft a QB high, you don’t think the locker room might be ready for anything that helps them win?   There are s lot of angles to this that could come into play depending on what happens this year.
