My dumbass really thought Panthers would bring in legit QB competition, they just signed away their jobs for Kenny fuging Pickett. fuging joke...

I'd be willing to bet that we also see one drafted Day 3. 

It's a backup; we all knew Bryce was going to get S4, and they have the 5th-year option. This is just a younger, more mobile Dalton replacement.

Id honestly take that unknown day 3 QB pick over kenny fuging Pickett. 

I swear, DO NOT BRING IN ANY TALENT AT QB OR IT MAY HURT BYS FEELS!!!!

No doubt in my mind now

To make matters worse he'll play just good enough to keep us out of the top 15 (for what is shaping up to be a generational QB draft) if we decide to not give him a new deal.  We are fugged either way.

I can't imagine people are defending this move but alas here we are

My first instinct is to be livid.

But these jokers are tying their jobs to this so let them make their bed.

And on the flip side. Seeing what Canales managed with Bryce Young last season who knows what he could do with Pickett if need be if it came down to it.

I still want us to draft a developmental QB.

If Bryce plays bad this year, no matter how bad it is, they will never bench him for Kenny fugging pickett. This doesn’t improve poo for the qb room.

I guess if that happens we can semi tank at least.

I'm not happy with the move, but there are more important things to worry about than a 1 yr 4 mil contract

I wish we would have traded Dalton first.  Now it is most likely going to cost us a pick because teams will now just wait for us to release Dalton.

I'm sure they tried

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
