No risk and literally no point.  We have tried this before with basketball players who actually HAD a football background as well.  All of them flopped.  At best, training camp and practice squad fodder.

Peppers?

That's not what you said

Yeah, I was talking about the likes of Swole Bones, Sullivan and there was one other forgettable name the team took look at.  Not to mention the washed out tall WRs, QBs etc... that we have tried to convert to TEs.  Again, we suck a developing guys at their natural positions, let alone completely new ones in the NFL, or hell, a completely new sport at it's highest level.

Dude you're really bitter about a bottom of the roster no risk high reward type of signing.  I don't think you can be happy about anything the Panthers do

Bitter, lol!  Embarrassed is more like it.  This is purely a joke or a PR move to get publicity.  There's is zero chance this dude makes the roster.  Honestly, I doubt he'll even make it to camp.

We need to look at some sumo wrestlers and strongmen for the lines while we’re at it 

Rugby players for running backs and then sign Messi to be the FG kicker.

According to Tony Pauline, the #Panthers, Falcons, Texans, Eagles, Seahawks and Vikings showed interest in converted TE and Coastal Carolina basketball player Colin Granger on his Pro Day 

Atlanta and Carolina then invited him for local and 30 visits respectively

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
