Just seems you skewed the numbers on height and weight to fit the narrative.  Update bros Wikipedia page if you are so sure?

They inflate sizes in a lot of sports.  I don't think Young is the only one getting a favorable measurement.

I just hope the guy is ready for the jump.

Young was weighed and measured at the Combine.

They don't lie there.

I agree with you about fragile egos. But it is outside the realm of possibility. If we wanted him we should have drafted him. He was falling.

Now instead we get to see if we've found our new PJ Walker...

At this point, I think Bryce must have a fragile ego. The Patriots always drafted a QB, even when their guy was Tom Brady. The Panthers were worried about bringing in any perception of competition. 
 

Now right a wrong and send a fourth and Jack Plummer for Sanders.

It's funny that some people think Perkins is going to change things.  He was fun to watch in the XFL.  Great athlete, but there's a rather substantial difference between Spring and Fall football.  He's going to play a lot against Pittsburg, hope he's a quick study.

Look, if Perkins became the next great rags to riches QB story, please serve me up the crow.  I'll eat all of it.  But remember what happened with the last XFL MVP QB we had...

Kurt Warner and Jake Delhomme are a thing.  It’s happened.  The likelihood of it happening are slim to none, but I will say this - Perkins couldn’t be walking into a better situation.  On paper, he may be the most physically gifted QB on the roster.  When both games we’ve played had every QB that took a snap for the opposing team look equal or better than all three of ours, I would say that bodes well for any QB we signed.

I'm officially retiring my PJ Walker fandom.  No more Lavar Ball memes ever again.  It was a good ride.  But, it's over. 

 

Bryce Perkins?  I mean, THIS is it.  Because EVERYONE knows what time it is!  Just imagine this hitting the air at BOA.

People always love a good underdog story and since we had Jake Delhomme, the fans remember a rags to riches QB success, despite the fact that those are extremely rare. 

This guy is here to eat up snaps in a meaningless game due to injuries. The odds of him making this roster are quite small, as he has literally missed the entire offseason here. Even a PS spot is a little far fetched.

I don't think Plummer's PS spot is far fetched at all.  Plummer stinks

I mean, at that point you are one injury away from literally it being a formality we are gonna lose that week.

Dalton is at least competent.

Which, I suppose we are close to that being reality regardless.

I think Dalton is done. But virtually every team in the NFL is a qb injury away from being terrible. I doubt KC would win 5 games without Mahomes.

I think people vastly underrate his competence when it comes to being a backup. I also think people WAAAAAAAAY overrate the role of a backup QB.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      There was no reason to believe in either Cam or Jake as a top tier elite QB before those seasons either. Cam was an "athletic" QB in most people's minds and his passing skills were open for debate. And there was a bit to that as he was still trying to get that massive power in his arm tamed to be able to put some touch on his passes. And then, he did it. Missiles became bombs, the firing lanes became points of finesse. Cam grew up and leveled up, while still retaining the ability and drive to truck people whenever he wanted. And Jake... no one freaking believed in Jake except Jake himself. He got, and let's be honest with this, one chance in a losing game to make something out of his career. And he rose to the occasion like some kind of mythical hero and continued to do so for the season. He became a true leader for the team, and his gunslinger capabilities rehabbed Moose's career and created Smitty as a force in the league. Smitty went from a barker to a biter. But no one believed in Jake going in. And they trashed him on his way out. Now Bryce... who knows? I've seen some improvement. Maybe he finds his footing. His teammates seem to love and respect him and that means a lot. The game should be moving at his speed now. He has weapons available to him and maybe a defense that doesn't just roll over by the third quarter. And his coach seems to be moving this team in the right direction. Could he do it? It's up to him, if he can find the magic like Jake and Cam did. But don't doubt this, magic is really, really hard to find.
