Dianna Russian: several teams interested in Bryce Young

The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reports the Panthers will keep QB Bryce Young.
There was smoke around the idea that the Panthers would at least listen to offers for Young, but apparently they didn’t like what they heard. Ultimately it’s not surprising as most teams view quarterback as a position to upgrade in the offseason — perhaps the Panthers will eventually move on from Young then. Young, 23, looks likely to start against the Giants this week after playing one of the better games of his career in a win over the Saints in Week 9.

His value is tanked because he tanked it via his performance. It will not get but so much better whatever he does (reasonable expectations being applied).

But the cap hit situation made it very unlikely anything would be done regardless, until after the season is over and they can absorb having everything accelerated to the cap as a result of his absence.

As long as Bryce is playing serviceable they are going to want to keep him. The Panthers need for Bryce to pan out

It depends how you define "Pan out", if you mean by serviceable then they need to trade him. If you think he is still capable of being a top 10 qb one day then that's a reason to keep him. The panthers didn't draft bryce to be serviceable, they drafted him to be significantly more than that. Being serviceable doesn't guarantee you anything in the nfl. Serviceable is honestly just being a good backup.

They need him to be a good quarterback, he needs to play well. Drafting another quarterback would set this team back years, and we have holes all over the roster. The best-case is that he plays well enough for us to trade back in the first round and acquire several picks. Because of all this, as long as he is not awful, they are going to play him.

That said, I can't tell you what Canales and Morgan are thinking. They may want to bring in their own guy, and I can understand that too.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
