Love the pick. They need a wr bad but panthers needed a qb bad as well and this one actually has the potential to be great. He played pro offense and can probably start without to much of a problem. The only problem I have is it is an incompetent qb developing coaching staff mainly due to inexperience. Not all QBs are fiery like Jake, they have skills instead, that need to be 'coached'.

I was hoping for a WR like Tate, but it will turn out to be a good move. If Moore doesn't work out, and I hope for the record he does work out, it is nice insurance. This day and age you have to have a franchise QB to win a Superbowl(normally). Hopefully Moore is the franchise, but if not, hopefully Claussen is :).

My opinion? It STINKS!!!

Great freakin going FO.

Now you have taken away a good QB's confidence by selecting a literal "joke" and completely ignoring areas of need.

This is absolutely, 110%, completely, undeniabley a literally worthless pick.

Look at some of the other talent that was on the board at that time!!!!

One last thing, the stupid ass draft analyst referred to one of our RB's as "James Stewart" What a silly fine young male.

Strange pick? Maybe, but a very smart insurance policy for Fox. He was the best value on the board, and there will be WR and D-line help available in the 3rd and 4th.

Maybe Moore doesn't succeed. Now, we have a backup who could be a franchise QB. If Moore does succeed, even better because then we can trade one of the two for value. QBs are always in demand.

Hurney & Fox seem to believe that they have enough of the right pieces in place to make a move like this. How's that for a draft day shocker though huh? I think in the end this pick will work out well.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
