Can’t disagree. Anointed. Hated it then, would hate it again. 
Entitlement type of crap and honestly it is unAmerican lol. 
 
There is a lot gained when you and others know you have earned your way. Respect from self and from from coworkers comes with that. 

Honestly, it's supremely American. Hand picked employee loved by the owner getting every opportunity while the other employees struggle to make up for his mistakes?  Sounds right.

That is worldwide. Sure it happens here too. 
The American way is work you way up the ladder. Hard work. Not afraid to get your hands dirty. Or it used to be.  
 

or marry the boss’s daughter, that always works too.

Kyler is not that good but has more natural talent than Bryce, he is actually fast and has a big arm.

Bryce could never reach Kylers level and we should want better than that anyway.

Oh, I absolutely want better!  When our QBs ceiling is another QB level that nobody wants...there's your sign.

How hard was it really for people to look at him and assess his physical ceiling? 
He is historically tiny and has zero tools that are above average for NFL players.  Not a single one. And sub average arm strength.

Hello?

You didn’t even have to get into his atrocious footwork and throwing mechanics.

His horrible footwork and throwing mechanics is a direct function or his lack of arm strength and height.  He has to bounce on his toes to see over the O-line and he has to wind up to get any resemblance of zip on a deeper ball.  Thus why Canales is always trying to roll him out of the pocket. It's not that he's some magician out of the framework, it's literally the only way he can play in the NFL.  

In short (ha-ha) his lack of an overall NFL physique doesn't just impede his play, it's because of his slightness that creates bad technique and affects his overall underwhelming play.

Yeah that tiptoe backpedal is a first. Never saw that before. It was  … I don’t know the word, but baffling and horrifying at the same time. baffifying. 
It doesn’t strain credulity it obliterates it. 
 

And FWIW I don’t say that to demean him, I say it to demean the common sense of people who looked at that and thought “yeah, he is worth the 1.1”. 
WTF are people looking at?

I've accepted that Bryce will, at the very least, be here next year.

At this point, I'm just hoping for some competition. Cut Dalton, sign Gardner Minshew or Geno Smith as a veteran, a draft someone like Joe Fagnano from UConn in day 3 of the draft.

OP is a cancer on this board.  Not sure everyone here realizes it but this board is viewed as an absolute cesspool of negativity and trolls.  It can’t be changed now.  So, all the morons that make numerous ridiculous threads need new lives.

      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.
