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.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
