Our boy Ellis just said Bryce will be our starter here in 2026 full stop.   He says there is too much invested in him.  

 

Take it as you want 

Well I’ve already told my friends and family that my PSLs are being turned after 30 years if Bryce is our starting QB next season. I’ve seen a lot of crappy QB play from this team over the years but nothing this consistently bad where all the oxygen is sucked out of the rest of the team by one dude. I can’t do it again. I’m out if Bryce is in.

Ehhh. I am really skeptical. The only investment specific to him is his contract which isn't a big deal

If true, though... This will immediately switch my opinion of Canales and Morgan both. And probably cause me to check out next year.

Thank you for sharing. I think Ellis is way off. I don’t think he has any inside info, but he’s buying in to the old way of thinking. Bryce is a sunk cost st this point, and Tepper as an investor recognize that. Tepper makes a lot of mistakes, but he also wants to win badly, so I don’t think he has any issues cutting his losses.

Logic doesn't apply when it comes to Tepper and Young.

A perfect example of the sunk cost fallacy. They should use this as a case study in school.

I appreciate the news. I will say he is guaranteed right on one thing, there is too much invested.  
I hate say what I think of throwing another year down the drain.

I miss Cam Newton. I see myself just sitting here either watching his first game against the Cardinals or the 2015 season. Man we were running on all cylinders. How the mighty have fallen. Now all we have it wet noodle Bryce Young.

He showed right away. Physically including passing the football there was no doubt from the start. 
And we are told not to want that because it is so rare. Yeah okay but I see that ball flight in my head and 85% of that would be more than enough. 
We should want that and not be sorry for it.

I want a Cam at QB but I'd settle for someone that isn't statistically in the bottom third of everything.

Edit: alright id not really settle until we had an elite player at that position haha

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
