I'm not saying he hasn't been awful, but he was a highly regarded QB prospect not that long ago and there are ALWAYS teams who will take a shot on a player like that, even if they haven't lived up to their draft stock. Especially when the narrative is that his failure was 100% on the organization and team around him.

See: Sam Darnold.

Yeah he is still young enough that a team can look back at their scouting of him and wonder if they can bring out the potential they saw. I still think its real funny that people here are not willing to admit that Bryce Young was going to be drafted in the top 5 picks of the draft last year.

whatever we do, we don't need to put him back in there. that would be the worst thing. let him play and then they watch and have second thoughts. 

let them just use their imagination.

I half thought this whole year would be trying to avoid being rationalized into a third year, by somewhat improved play.

As bad, or mediocre, as I thought it would go it went worse. Off a cliff.

I don't think anyone argues that point, but there is a difference between swinging and missing on a draft pick and swinging and missing like Carolina has and losing all of the other capital/talent in addition to the pick. The issue is that they spent all of that to trade up for such a physically limited player; even if the Texans had Bryce #1, as one example, they weren't willing to pay anything for the privilege of ensuring they could draft him over Stroud.

They had another trades in the works with Zona to move up to 3 and couldn’t give up the capital to do both.  So they were fine with either quarterback and would have taken BY had we taken stroud.

Well unfortunately the panthers can screw themselves out of a trade.

darnold has the requisite physical ability. Not only does Bryce not that, he’s shown he has none of the skills that we’re supposed to overcome it. He’s not a developmental project because there’s nothing to develop. 

if you’re just saying “well someone always gucks up: look at the panthers” then I am saying Bryce’s shittiness transcends blind faith and hope and optimism.

Not talking about how they aquired him. Im talking about why a team may still want him.

You were since you referenced Top 5 last year. My point was that sure, some other QB-starved team probably would have taken a shot, but Carolina was the only one willing to spend additional capital to do it and now there is a season of atrocious film backing up whatever reservations other teams had. If they can get him cheap then someone will kick the tires but folks were not impressed enough to move up to secure him. Not much value to be had.

      2026 Team Needs

      His dead cap is stupid.  Moton will be here for a couple more years.  It's not like his play has dropped off.  yes we need to draft a backup, but not necessarily round 1.

      I started laughing around paragraph three and the laughs kept coming. That man will never see success in his lifetime if someone sold him on all that BS.

      1) Marquise Brown (Shaheed might be a bit too expensive) 2) Probably isn't happening - can't afford to waste cap there. Just gotta roll with our TEs we have or draft one. Maybe Darren Waller if he has anything left. 3) Probably gonna be out of range for Reese and Styles, so no to drafting ILB round 1 if they are gone. Would be great if Woods, Faulk, or Terrell fell. Possible we take an OT also if they drop, especially if we move on from BC and with Moton on his last legs with us. 4) Not sure we have the money to get a high end pass rusher in free agency and would rather not burn more money on underachieving edges like Wonnum. Keep developing Scourton & Princely and draft an edge (ideally 1st round unless BPA other position is better) 5) Sure, but it would have to be a day 3 draft pick IMO (unless a really good one drops like Starks last year). Little out of FSU is somebody that fits Evero's scheme well (if he is back with us). I like what I see on tape out of Wheatley from Penn St, but I think he will shoot up draft boards after the combine. 6) Dalton needs to be cut the day after our last game of football this year... Not a great free agent crop of backup/fringe starter QBs that won't break the bank, but Mariota, Tyrod, or Zach Wilson are worth a look or start looking at day 3 trades for other team's backups (still would like Winston for a 6th rounder or similar value)
