Did he grow a brain and mature since I last heard? Seriously, if he could mature he would be ideal for the Panthers in my view. If a CBA was in place we give Tenn our pick ..take theirs and a second and all of a sudden we have addressed our top 3 needs .Someone must have put something in their coffee and the same thing in mine.

If you thought Vince had grown up a little then I would take him, I know VY was on Beason's radar when the asked him about getting a QB... but if you're going to draft Cam then I'm not sure there's any point in taking VY and the two might even clash.

It takes more than ability and a sucessiful college career to play QB in the NFL.The sad thing is he demonstrated they he could compete at a high level but let his emotions get the best of him.So many of these guys never even get to his level.It reminds me a bit of Kerry Collins brain fart in Carolina.

No it would not make sense if you were to draft Cam but it would allow you get additional picks a therefore filling more holes

If people had confidence in VY's mental state, he would be strongly recruited by many teams.

Unfortunately, based on the only interview I have seen with him recently, he doesn't get it yet. If he can go somewhere and sit for awhile with some good tutoring, he may still turn out to be a really good QB.

I agree. Teams are reticent to take that chance.

That being said, there have been several players in the last few years that have been passed over, only to make a comeback of sorts after a team took a chance on them. I'm thinking of players like Randy Moss and Michael Vick (though I'm sure there are more out there).

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
