Bryce Young May Be The Answer

Everything has to be elite before we can grade Bryce 

Hubbard had more yards rushing than Bryce had passing (adjusted for sacks).  You would think it was a monsoon or a blizzard with those kind of stats.  Nah, just a cool sunny day where the QB leans on the running game and doesn't have to do anything special outside of--just don't turn the ball over.  Success!

We have a nice foundation in place for whomever will be the future at QB and we will add even more in the coming months. All we can say for sure is Bryce will be here next season competing and that's the only logical answer. Anyone making firm declarations one way or another about him being or not being the answer right now are confusing opinion with fact.

No, he's a game manager...at best.  We get to see next year. I think he's about hit his ceiling.

And there have been teams with average QBs and loaded rosters-mainly teams with great defenses--like the 85 Bears, for extreme example, that have won it all with a game manager--but it is much better to have an elite QB....

This draft will have some decent qbs who could become a good NFL starting QB--I think of Cousins being taken with RGIII in the same draft.  I think of Brady being drafted when the Pats had Bledsoe---I hope we go after a guy like Howard from Ohio State, Rourke from Indiana, or (and people might laugh at this, but he has the skills) Beck from Georgia. 

Yeah, Bryce is a game manager--that is all he was at Bama.

Agreed.  

Im all for competition.  They should challenge everyone and bring out the best in them.

All qbs are game managers until they're not. And not many take the next step without quality around them

Looking at this from the Canales viewpoint:  He inherited Bryce.  No emotional commitment to him.  He did not pound the table for Bryce in meetings before the draft in 2023.  He was hired to turn him around, so to speak, and he has done that.  Bryce could be tapping on his ceiling, and Canales will reach a point when he wants more.

He’s playing pretty good on an offense that has a really good rb, an above average o-line and average receivers. Upgrade his receivers and see what happens.

And we could use a stud TE to go with Sanders and Tremble.  That would be an awesome TE room.

We have a Chad pennington that we mortgaged the future for and selected #1 overall. You got to have higher expectations and just being a game manager isnt good enough. Until he can be a consistent game changer and can be relied upon putting the team on his back when needed, he still isnt worth what was given up.

Young played well.   Mistake free.  But still need competition for next year.  The cardinals committed so many penalties i was wondering for a while if they wanted to loose.  Hubbard is looking better and better though.  I would love to see young have a 300 yard game or 2 to finish the season .

    • awesome interview. Love the guy. 
    • all the trades and using PFFs draft rankings and Gemini's analysis: This is a high-value mock draft that effectively uses trade-down strategies to rebuild the Carolina Panthers' defensive interior and add depth to a roster with multiple holes. By turning mid-round capital into a volume of picks, you've secured several "sliding" stars and developmental high-ceiling players. Based on 2026 PFF big board trends and player value, here is the analysis: Draft Grade: A- The Top Picks: Interior Dominance  * 19. Peter Woods (DT, Clemson): Getting Woods at 19 is a steal. Heading into the 2025 season, he was viewed as a potential top-5 talent. While his production dipped slightly, his 4.75 40-yard dash at 315 lbs is elite. He provides the Panthers with a versatile disruptor who can play 3-tech or slide outside.  * 63. Dontay Corleone (DT, Cincinnati): "The Godfather" is one of the best pure nose tackles in the class. Pairing him with Woods creates an immediate identity for the Panthers' front seven. PFF loves his "unmovable" anchor. Securing him at the end of Round 2 after trading down from 51/53 is excellent value. The Mid-Round Steals  * 83. Deontae Lawson (LB, Alabama): Lawson is a high-IQ "green dot" linebacker. Many scouts projected him as a late 1st or early 2nd rounder before an ACL injury in late 2024. Getting a 2-time Alabama captain at 83 to lead the defense is a massive win for culture and stability.  * 130. Drew Allar (QB, Penn State): This is the "high-upside lottery ticket" pick. Allar has prototypical size (6'5", 240 lbs) and a massive arm. His stock fell due to a 2025 ankle injury and inconsistency, but at 130, he’s a low-risk, high-reward backup/successor to Bryce Young if the former No. 1 pick continues to struggle. Trade Analysis & Late Round Value Your strategy of "tier-dropping" (trading 51 for 53/121 and 53 for 63/95) allowed you to stay in the same talent bracket while picking up Kevin Coleman Jr. (WR) and Genesis Smith (S).  * 168. Parker Brailsford (OC, Alabama): Great value for a technical center who can compete for a depth spot.  * 169. Tacario Davis (CB, Washington): At 6'4", he is a rare physical specimen at corner. PFF and other boards often have him as a Day 2 talent; getting him in the 5th round (via the 161 trade) is arguably your best value pick of the draft. Summary of Picks | Pick | Player | Position | School | Analysis | | 19 | Peter Woods | DT | Clemson | Elite traits; Top-10 ceiling. | | 63 | Dontay Corleone | DT | Cincinnati | Best run stuffer in the class. | | 83 | Deontae Lawson | LB | Alabama | Vocal leader; sliding due to injury. | | 121 | Kevin Coleman Jr. | WR | Missouri | Speed threat to complement the room. | | 130 | Drew Allar | QB | Penn State | High-ceiling developmental passer. | | 169 | Tacario Davis | CB | Washington | Massive reach/length for a late flyer. | Final Verdict You addressed the trenches aggressively and took advantage of "injury discounts" on Lawson and Allar. The only minor critique is that the roster still feels thin at Edge (until the 211 pick), but the sheer volume of talent added to the interior DL and Secondary compensates for it.
