The more I read up on this kid the more I like him. Has a real soft touch on the ball when he needs to drop it in a tight spot. I have read a few sites mentioning his "Brett Favre" like toughness, playing through pain and injury. Won the Johnny Unitas award and has show blue collar work ethic.

Seems like more of a leader than Jimmy Jam and has had to scrap for every bit of attention he has gotten while leading Cinci to an undefeated season.

All Aboard!

He has allot of potential, just needs to put some weight on or he's gonna get snapped in half.

He's 6'6" and 235 pounds. That's pretty big. Besides, he won't have to worry about getting snapped in half while he's holding a clipboard.

The question is, can he be as worthy of your obsession with backup QBs as Chris Weinke was?

Well, one thing is for certain, any of our three guys could step in and perform better than Jake did last season. ;)

Well, he's certainly got the looks to hold a clipboard, which is a point in his favor. Have you noticed how the Observer runs his picture any time they can, instead of Clausen's?

But we're the Panthers, and we play our goofy looking guys while the dreamboats ride the pine. Sorry bud...

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
