INDIANAPOLIS -- Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton may not have had the best Pro Bowl anybody can remember, but it's hard to remember anything else that didn't come up roses for the 2011 first-overall draft pick. With a Panthers team that may have had the worst aerial attack in modern NFL history before he arrived, Newton became the first NFL quarterback to throw for over 4,000 yards and rush for over 500 in the same season, and he also eclipsed Peyton Manning's rookie passing record with 4,051 yards through the air. The threat he presented as a running quarterback opened things up for Carolina's running backs, and veteran Steve Smith had a renaissance season catching passes from one of the more impressive young quarterbacks we've seen.

      In all honesty, no one knows if Dan really pushed for Bryce to be drafted. It's not fair to Dan to say that just because he was a part of the Fitterer regime then he was in full support of drafting Bryce. If the HC, Reich at the time really wanted Stroud but got bullied into drafting Bryce then Dan had even less say so in the matter. Dan was also saddled with giving Bryce an opportunity to compete in years 2/3 because of the cost to trade up and get him by ownership.  Outside of managing the QB position, Dan has made good moves and built a decent roster. Solidified the O-line and D-line, drafted contributors, and made good trades (Mike Jackson), and free agent signings (Dowdle). I do believe that this offseason will be really important for Dan and we'll see whose side he is clearly on. Bryce has had plenty of time and opportunity to prove himself and he has failed, if Dan is a Bryce homer he'll give him another year and pick up the 5th year option. If Dan isn't a Bryce homer, he'll move on from Bryce. Either way, we'll find out this offseason.

      You also have to extend him and probably deal/cut Bryce

      Jones would be what he is if he was on this team, a fairly middle of the road game manager. Still and upgrade but probably not worth the price the 49ers may want for him. If it's not something stupid in terms of ask and he doesn't want something even more stupid in terms of longish term contract, I am okay with a middling game manager until we can do better through the draft. The one thing that wouldn't be terrible is some stability at QB. That has almost never happened under Tepper.
