Pickett is complete ass dude, complete ass. 

 

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

Lance, Howell, draft any dude

None of these guys have done anything notable in the NFL...and we have not gotten to the draft where I'd take a flier on Green. 

This has nothing to do with being a homer, I didn't want Pickett the year we took Corral, and I don't want him now; however, he's the BACKUP so it really doesn't matter.

Its only 4 guaranteed, he will never see 7.5

Maybe injury related game time/starts. Not really much left in FA they could grab, if they wanted an upgrade over Pickett in the season they'd have to trade for someone

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.

Thats not the point, I am saying this front office is doing everything in its power to not challenge bryce, why wouldnt they bring in someone more talented than fuging pickett?  Oh yeah, to make bryce look better.  I am saying there is a plan for a pathway for them to extend him and have all the reasons ready.   I mean person and Kaye are making the rounds saying as much

again you are missing the point, both those dudes are way more talented than bryce and Howell starting eclipsed anything young has done while in his 2nd year

I still cannot wrap my head around this move. I mean this guy couldn't make a team as a walk on and they actually want to pay this bum to be a backup here? Dafug is this FO smoking?

my only hope is at a one year deal they're setting the table if BY craps the bed in '26

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 chances of finding a QB in the fourth round are slim but there's still a chance. They have shot themselves in the foot by not addressing the C and LB position, secondary depth is actually not that bad as long as they don't bring Nick Scott back.

First and foremost I am NOT a Bryce fan, but when we talk about current NFL production, all three of those QBs have done nothing at the NFL level, and even though Lance was my preference. He's had a few years to try and crack into a starter role and the same for Howell. 

They're all viewed the same in the NFL...back up caliber. IMO that is also what Bryce is, but since he cost a pick swap, a future 1st, second, and DJ Moore, they're going to see it through and there's not a damn thing we can do about it. 

And by them, I mean Tepper. While I believe he has stepped back overall, the Bryce timeline is still under his final say.

    • I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.  
    • Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.  
    • The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
