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.

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?

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

I would rather have taken a flyer in the 5th or 6th round. They really don't want any competition in camp. 

Who says we won’t? I’ll be surprised if we don’t

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

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.

Of the same thing over and over. 

Yea they signed a backup QB who is worse than Bryce Young on purpose so he doesn’t make him look bad in practice
