Bryce contingency plan?

As the adage goes "the defining of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again". We have had 2 years of Bryce & Andy as plan A & B. Time to change one or both. Salary cap & draft assets may restrict changing plan A, but plan B can be changed much more easily. IMO, They need to add a plan C in the form of drafting a QB in the 2nd or 3rd, with the intent to let him sit & learn & get into NFL shape for a year or at least 8-10 games.

This list also says that drafting a QB in the first round and playing him early doesn't work anymore. 6 out of 10 were 1st round picks with the last few years. Jones is the oldest one but he started his first season too I think. 

So, probably drafting another 1 this season doesn't change anything for us for several seasons. No matter who is. 

Yes getting any qb at all thats good is a crap shoot.  We could get lucky get a stroud or a nix.  But what the other take away is rarely do any of the qbs get better.  Well excpt for darnold and mayfield

I'm coming to the point of believing he deserves another year to try and show he can be a starter. Not quite there yet, but leaning in that direction.

Still, I'd prefer to have a capable veteran backup.

The problem is that if a qb is capable he usually starting. Backups are backups for a reason.

We are in a multi-year rebuild. Let Bryce play out and grab a CB this year in the draft.

I'm sorry but how is this not obvious to anyone? This is exactly what everyone should be thinking. How the heck does Reddit have way more people that know what's going on compared to here? I hate Reddit. Anyone who says Bryce is not the quarterback (if healthy) during a few year rebuild must get out or go to my re-education football camp to learn what football is. 2 months at least. The football IQ has completely plummeted. 

While I'm gone Happy Panther is in charge because he is by far the smartest here so far and refuse to read anymore comments from these parrots. Thank you Happy Panther for having what we call at camp..."Tepper Telligence". Anyone saying new quarterback...I'll see you tomorrow morning at 7:00am. Tepper out...

    • If Mays has a market, which it seems he will, he's gone.  I think we bring back Nijman for too much money to be cautious at LT, Corbett comes back cheap since he's already said he wants to live in CLT, and Christensen eventually gets re-signed with the hopes he can be depth at some point.  Draft an OT, draft a C. The OL might be rough for stretches next year, but time to get some youth there to prepare for Bryce in 2027 or the next QB. I still think we compete for the division in 2026 and can go back to the playoffs unlike the oddsmakers in Vegas, but the *real* year is 2027 IMO. Either Bryce has proven it and he's the QB looking at his 2nd contract, or we have the ready-made team for the next rookie QB or Vet we trade for. 
    • The Panthers are going to have a lot more flexibility in free agency than it looks like at first glance. On paper, the cap space might seem tight, but there are several obvious restructure candidates that could easily free up significant room. Between converting base salaries into signing bonuses and spreading cap hits out over future years, Carolina could realistically clear $60–80 million in additional space if they wanted to be aggressive. That kind of flexibility means they’re not stuck. They can extend key young pieces, add help along the offensive line, upgrade the defense, and still be strategic about value signings. Letting Cade Mays test the market makes sense from a leverage standpoint. If he’s willing to come back on a team-friendly deal, great, continuity on the line matters. But if his market price climbs, the Panthers should absolutely explore upgrades. The point is, this front office isn’t boxed in. With cap maneuvering and smart structuring, they have the ability to be active players in free agency rather than sitting on the sidelines like we are used too.
