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

Also so we basically are paying 8 million for Pickett with potential to go over 10?   Yeah that math ain't mathing

No doubt in my mind now

I wouldn't go that far, there's no reason to extend him, it's a 1-year deal for Pickett, and with Bryce under contract for 2 more, I don't think we are at that point until we see a 9+ win season.

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

Better question, what young, athletic / mobile QB did you ''think'' they were going to be able to sign for 4M + incentives?

As a matter of fact, let's say for 10M...who do you think that QB would be...?

I was hoping for Lance based on upside, but it's a toss-up for these back-ups. The HOPE is that they never play anyway.

It's not defending, it's just the reality of the market.

to my knowledge no qb has ever played through their 5th year option and walked.  If you dont think talks are preliminary going on with our front office and his agents then I am not sure what to tell you.  The team is looking for any bright spot to extend him and signing Kenny fuging pickett is exhibit a, b and c.  We are not a serious franchise and operate on feels.

 

Will it happen this off season, probably not but it wouldnt surprise me, will it happen if bryce replicates his stats and we are something like 3-3.  Without a doubt they pay him

Lance, Howell, draft any dude

 

Pickett is complete ass dude, complete ass. 

 

But defending this signing puts you in another stratosphere as a panther homer, so mad respect

We also see QB's released / traded etc before that point to. 

I don't need you to tell me anything, I'm aware it could happen, I'm also aware Bryce hasn't done enough to warrant one at this time. So regardless of history we have to wait and see.

Better to take a flyer than to go into the season hoping it's finally clicked for Bryce.

A 4th round pick won’t be our future QB. Might as well just wait for next year and pick a QB high.. No half measures. Might be possible with our tough schedule and BY as our QB. I think it’s smart to draft OL/secondary depth in the middle rounds this year. QB next year.  This team needs every draft pick desperately. Just my opinion.

    • You bring up a good point on the stability part and i would agree that probably will factor into it. But yes, Tepper does have a strong influence on who stays/goes but I still believe ultimately it'is Morgan, Tilis and Canales who will decide.  
    • I can always count on yout to put things so delicately lol. I'm still not sold on the fact that Tepper will make them keep him if they don't see him as a long term answer.
    • holy poo... this thread inspired me to keep trying to guess passwords to various alts I've created over the years and I finally got in! I pretty much accepted my fate as a lurker for the last several months because I could not remember my password. I didn't realize that new users couldn't join either, that explains things. I have been around for years under several different monikers, through the good and bad. I too always find myself coming back here even with all of the new social media options for Panther fan engagement. It's simply nostalgic.   I do get extremely annoyed with the same 5-10 posters shitting on Bryce and complaining about everything. It's unfortunate that half of them are mods and that nobody new can join because now I pretty much just come on here and see Bryce / Panther slander. There is barely any positivity to be had. We all watch this team and hang on this forum for entertainment purposes only. We have no control or say in anything. I used to be such a crazy ass fan that would argue with strangers about Cam newton on the internet and at games. Now, as a father of 3, a business owner and someone with way gnarlier life problems - I like to watch football and talk about football as an escape. Not to bitch more. I really like the direction of the team and will root anyone in a Panthers jersey. I live down the street from the Rams practice facility, Matthew Stafford is currently coaching his daughters flag football team in the same program I coach my sons. I have two highly ranked Rams staff members sons on my team. The way we beat them and had them on the ropes in the playoffs has me feeling amazing, and you would think we have the next great thing in Bryce with the way they all speak of him. I'm gonna ride that high and be a delusional fan, I hope that huddle can stick around or get fixed and perhaps I will get back to posting more now that I can log in again. I will do my best to not get banned. Keep Pounding!
