Schefter Per ESPN Insider: Sources Say Carolina Goes Cam

Recommended Posts

To be fair Gantt and Sorensen have seen saying it for ages.

While Reed and Person say otherwise and Yasinskas bounces back and forth. It's all speculation. None of them has a clue.

What makes Schefter look dumb though is saying this right after Rivera makes a public statement that the decision isn't made yet and won't be until the week of the draft.

Meanwhile, on radio Marty Hurney explains that the pro days have just ended and so the scouting department will only now begin getting together to hash out the draft board.

So the decision's not made, the group that will hash out the decision hasn't met yet, it's all being run by a GM who prefers to have every last shred of info in place before making a decision, but Schefter thinks he can predict now which way the team is leaning, and for that, people pay extra.

Oy :nonod:

In the article Schefter does indicate that he was leaning Gabbert until "what he heard today" (whatever the F that means) and now he thinks Cam is the guy...

and in other news, my boner is official... not in a homo way... in an "excited about the future of our team" sort of way.

yes he had to have heard something credible to get off the media fest of blaine gabbert.. it's the same thing that happened with gantt, before the super bowl newton was in the 0% chance of being drafted by us in his eyes..then the more he hears and sees it becomes Newton being the top choice. Clayton used to believe we loved Jimmy but then changed his tune as well but also picked Cam as our top choice.

At the very least it makes you wonder. The guys with "sources" are usually having us go with Cam but the Mock Drafters pick Gabbert(Steve Reed's post the other day was largely saying support was dwindling for Cam in Mock Drafts not with Panthers FO).

    • I don't have a dog in this fight (I use an antenna and almost never miss the game), but I don't read tukafan21's post as defending the corporation. He just laid out the math.
    • Because it's not that bad, it is literally saving people money if they don't live near the team they root for and are able to get them on local TV every week. Do I wish it was cheaper? Sure, of course. But I can also objectively look at it and say it's saving me money compared to needing to go watch it at a bar ever weekend.   And before anyone says to just stream it, I did it for a while once Covid hit, partially because we were so bad so I didn't care about the problems with it, but it was just awful.  To begin with, sometimes they just flat out didn't work, sometimes the quality sucked, sometimes it would just buffer every 30 seconds and be nearly unwatchable. The $450 this costs for the season is a significantly better deal than the $180 I have to spend to watch Wrexham matches for the season.  That pass, you have to sign up for an individual team and you only get their games (and not even all of them sometimes).  At least with Sunday Ticket, you get every single non national or local game, which again, is amazing for fantasy football junkies.
    • I honestly don't think that was as true as most believed. Cam was a very efficient passer in Norv's system and again in his year in NE. I think we hurt him in his development and as an overall QB trying to tailor TOO much to his unique talents. The read option should've always remained a staple, but after year two the passing game should've evolved into a more typical modern day NFL passing offense vs. an obsession with chunk play deep ball setups.
