The COLTS are working out Mark Sanchez. The Indianapolis freakin Colts are working out a QB...how is the team with the best QB in the league working a guy out and the PANTHERS haven't even sniffed a first round QB and our guy is Jake Delhomme?? Granted they probably are not going to draft this guy but it just gives you a little perspective as to how stubborn this organization is with drafting first round QBs..

Every team is interested in just about every 1st round prospect. No doubt the Panthers have seen Sanchez workout.

Last year the Panthers were one of the main interest in Matt Ryan.

Just because you don't hear about what the FO does, doesn't mean they're not doing anything.

Good lord, I love how ANY QB related topic always ends with the poster mentioning something about how its insane that we still have Delhomme or something along those lines.

The organization, and especially Fox, don't like drafting young QB's. Especially extremely inexperienced QB's such as Sanchez and Stafford. They prefer experience. Yes, they are stubborn with drafting first round QB's.

Not to mention, first round QB's are pretty damn risky for the amount of money they get. They are an extremely risky position. Look at the lame-ass QB's that have hit in the first round since about 1995: Kerry Collins, Jim Druckenmiller, Ryan Leaf, Tim Couch, Akili Smith, Cade McNown, Chad Pennington (although he might have finally found his stride), Michael Vick, Joey Harrington, Patrick Ramsey, Alex Smith, JP Losman, Byron Leftwich, Kyle Boller, Rex Grossman, David Carr.

Comeon. And since then, what 1st round QB's really showed solid excellence? Peyton Manning, Donovan McNabb, Carson Palmer, Eli Manning, Ben R., Matt Ryan, Daunte Culpepper (debatable...), Phillip Rivers. Not many.

The Panthers are smart because they'd much rather invest in solid defensive/offensive linemen or running backs or DB's. They are easier positions to transition to in the NFL. They can be starters for years and years.

QB's are just damn tricky, especially young ones.

    • I would say that seems like an odd comment from Morgan, but at the same time it's almost impossible to find a college QB declaring for the draft to have less physical ability than BY so you can assume almost anyone you bring in would be your go to QB sneak/designed run guy. 
    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
