My Guess Who Rivera's FA QB Is Gonna Be....

Getting back on track...I think Boller may work out given he has the knowlegde, not too old and could legitimately start. I'm not saying the guy is going to come in and shatter records, but a stable veteran who happens to be a former first rounder is worth considering.

Jeff Tedford products pretty much never make it in the pros, though.

I think I read somewhere a long time ago (maybe 4-5 years) that his QBs often failed in the NFL because his system only taught them to read half the field. They never had progressions that were on different sides of the field so his QBs would just stare down one side then throw it away/run.

Other systems have reads on each side or down the middle based on safeties/linebackers/etc.

I'm sure people have figured out that's a flawed logic, especially in the pros.

He just got married to Ms California I believe so who knows where his head is at.

He would take away from the ugly stable of QBs I mentioned earlier and help bring some balance so he should be considered for that reason alone.

Boller & Moore > Clausen & Pike

I've grouped 4 players into two groups of who I'd like to see brought in. The first are the players that can still possibly become a 3-4 year starter a la Delhomme, Warner, etc.; and the second are the vet presence and 1-year starter/filler types:

1) Seneca Wallace, Gradkowski

2) Bulger, Volek

Basically, I'm thinking the additions that could be good are Bulger, Gradkowski, & Volek.

Imo, Gradkowski & Wallace could actually still develop into an above average QB and Bulger/Volek are as mentioned throughout the board for the Vet presence and maybe 1-Year starter potential.

Boller would just piss me off...I hated him in Baltimore. That guy won't throw the deep ball.

But why?

As a starter in Seattle he completely outplayed Hasselbeck and his career stats are all pretty solid.

People don't seem to like him but I have yet to hear why.

what? wow you are off!

Seneca is a career back up in my opinion...he just doesn't seem to get it!!! Name me a QB who constantly runs out of bounds ten yards behind the line of scrimmage with the ball in his hands? He's got decent speed, not much of an arm and he's way too short to play behind these big lines

Still better than Hasselbeck was. Won more games too.

Seems better than Volek (hasn't really played since '04 and is 34) or Gradkowksi who is injury prone.

    • Any idea what happened to him at LSU? im reading that he was considered a 1st round pick in 2023, had an off 2024 season with only 4 sacks but was also on a horrible FSU team then went to LSU where he was supposed to be on an aggressive defense that should have given him a lot of sacks but he only ended up with one….   was he injured? Did the top SEC competition expose him? What happened? Cause this guy was considered a top prospect .  
    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.
