McShay Says Gabbert is a Possibility for Us Now, as Well as Fairley or Bowers

Said QB is an obvious position of need, and Clausen is what he expected he was, "Not NFL ready..." and didn't know if he would ever be a viable NFL starter. Said QB is the obvious, biggest need, and Gabbert is one of the most underrated players in the draft and spoke highly of him.

Said if we weren't going at QB then DL was probably the next most important area of need and Fairley was a better fit for immediate need than Bowers would be.

Cam Newton isn't even in his Top 10 and he never even mentioned him.

For the record, I think Gabbert might surprise but generally isn't anything to brag about, but otherwise, I think all these guys will be solid role players at best. Newton has potential, but I think has work to do and several question marks.

McShay is an assclown.

For the life of me i've never seen Gabbert play or even heard of him til this season.

I will not comment on his ability seeing as how i watch few college football games outside the SEC/ACC. Gabbert maybe a great talent, IDK but Quarterbacks who come out of nowhere after one season worry me.

Fairley, Bowers or Green would be my choice. Can't go wrong with any of them, imo.

Fairley would help solidify the middle. Bowers would be an awesome compliment, him on one end and Johnson on the other. Green could replace a Smith that may or may not want to be traded.

I wouldn't be surprised with one of those 3 guys being our choice.

We're not waiting for Luck.

Screw that man.

If a chance comes along to improve our team this offseason, we take it.

Screw Luck, and the overrated team he came in on.

At least that's my take on it.

LOL at Stanford being overrated. They might be the best team in the country.

I'll chalk that up to the bitterness in side you.

Stanford is not the best team in the country.

Oregon, Auburn, Bama at their best, TCU perhaps, along with a couple others I'd take over Stanford.

And so what if it is?

He's not on this team. He's likely not gonna be on this team. He'll likely play for another team, so he's the enemy.

I hope he freaking sucks. Screw him and over his overrated coach.

Screw 'em all.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
