Hot Take: This team will never get over the hump, until we move on from Bryce.

Teams, panthers especially, who annually draft a guy they think will save their franchise from the doldrums are rewarded a continuing fate. 

Winning franchises draft boring lineman, stop the run and get after the QB. They pass protect and coach up good QB to be great QBs. They stack good talent next to elite talent. 

This team is far from that point. Roll with Nice Young, build the team and the culture and see if he continues to grow. 

Burrow, Cam, Stafford,  Allen… unicorns. 99.9% of QBs don’t take that kind of beating and still win games.

Cam is the only QB in this draft worth a 1st, and we won’t be in range to get him. Use this draft to build the roster up, and if we’re in this same spot next year, grab your QB. The class next year is looking much better. 
 

Im not sold on Bryce either, but you give him next season. If the team is still in this spot after next season, you move on.

Prime Cam did more with less, so don't give me that no weapons crap.

When exactly was this? It definitely wasn't his first 2 seasons because that's the only time you can compare with Bryce right now, since he isn't a finished product. Just like Cam wasn't in year 2. I'm not comparing Bryce's physical abilities to Cam. That would be flat out ridiculous. But Cam came into a much much better situation to develop as a rookie.

Yep, if you're going to compare the physical talent then you've got to also compare the anticipation and touch that Bryce throws with.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
