So, any chance we could snatch up a QB late?

Bulger is still available and I don't think are many other good options for a veteran QB still available.

I know I read a non-statement from Hurney where Darrin Gantt asked if we would go after Bulger or Delhomme still and Hurney said we haven't yet but its possible.

That's some insight right there.

Like your sig btw (to the OP).

If we ****** up one this late it will most likely be Derek Anderson because he already know's most of the formations and systems, that way if we need him to start week one he can. I don't think anyone else could come in and learn the playbook that fast with not being able to practice with the team until August 4th.

I agree that Anderson would be the most logical choice from the Panther's perspective.

But is Carolina the most logical choice from Anderson's perspective? He's been a starter. You would think he would want to sign somewhere where he has a chance to be a starter again.

I don't think Carolina gives him that opportunity except maybe in the most SHORT of terms.

Bulger is the same way, if Carolina wants a QB that they know will be the second guy but can also come in a play if need be, well sadly that guy will probably be Delhomme. He obviously hasn't played well in a long time but he has showed the capability in the past albeit in the very, very late past, but you know he wouldn't have a problem being the second guy.

I do want a VET QB presence for any questions the young guys may have and it sounded like Hurney is looking into it from his presser the other day.

One we can remove from the possibility list is Volek, he just re-signed with Chargers for 2 years. I just don't see Bulger wanting to come here and sit. Could end up being BSP again honestly.

Please not BSP, he had little starting experience coming into last year and could not give any help to anyone on the roster let alone our rookie quarterback. He was probably wondering why the hell he was even on the field.

I agree 100% that we need a veteran QB at least for a few weeks. I was never big on throwing Cam into the mix, early on, as a rookie, but considering the limited off-season he has, we'd be foolish to even consider it now. I don't know who is out that, that we think would work in this system and groom Cam. Daunte Culpepper comes to mind, but I don't know the circumstances of his UFL contract and if he would even fit in here? I would like to find somebody who is familiar with Chudzinski's style.

I'd prefer not to as well, but Matt had more starting experience and we let him walk... Volek is off the market. Besides Jake and Bulger, I can't think of any other Vet QBs with significant starting experience who would come on the cheap.

      I could be waaaaaaay off about Kon. I do fault myself into, to borrow a NFL phrase heavily "RAS" nerd on players, too much. There are PLENTY of athletic freak shows that are playing overseas(or Amazon delivery) cause they never figured out NBA ball. I can easily miss seeing the talent. Plus did he only have 2 dunks on the season??(is that for real??) I didn't watch over a few hours of duke, but not one point did I think "That Kon guy is a top 4 pick in the upcoming draft". IMO I still foresee Ball bringing the ball up, doing his weak isolation game and never even looking for Kon. That's his best trait according to everyone, shooting right? I do not see ball, bridges, miller or even williams making the extra pass to Kon for him to shoot a 3.  Then defense-wise, Im not ready to type the amount of questions I foresee in his ability for guarding NBA SGs or bench SFs for that matter. Not that NBA players care to defend, but still..... I just feel he's a bad fit for the current hornets, trades are taking place tho... Liam to me is a decent comp for Kon and he fell some, but was a 29 overall pick. Still around 13-21 was the good solid range for Liam and I thought the same for Kon. This is just a classic case of I need to see it. It add to this, Kon is like garlic. Ball is like sugar and Miller is like flour. Mix it together and chef Lee is not going to get me to eat that dish..... Honestly I don't know why Im this vocal about Kon. In past years I would be patience and not post and see what the kid has. The other side, insert classic white boy terms here- _____, ______, _______< etc >. Hornets do desperately need them. His crafty back door cuts, his willingness to stay a extra 2 hours to refine lees plays, keep playing with bruised limbs. I heard from many reports he's mentally tough and hornets by all gods need that. God they are such pussys.  I hope Im wrong and if so, I will give Kon his just props.
