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.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • 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
