So I have been pondering this question all week. Let's say Cam keeps regressing and the panthers drop the spread option and no improvement. We get the #1 pick this offseason do we take Geno smith or not. Cam will be entering his 3rd year of a 4 year contract next season. Do you take the risk they he will get better next year with no backup plan? Or do you take geno and let him learn a year and to see if cam improves?

No. You trade down and build a better team around him like the Rams did with Bradford. Taking Geno would be completely idiotic to do and when we have a aging LT, and WR. We do not have a secondary nor a interior d-line. If we take Geno with the number 1 pick then this team is ruined for another decade.

I'm not understanding why people think another QB would do better than what Cam is doing like, wtf?

It isn't his fault his offensive coordinator is completely incompetent and refuses to trash this shitty read option. So squirrel please take your Geno Smith fantasies to another forum.

The draft isn't right now, it's a pointless discussion.

The thought of drafting another QB with a theoretical first round pick would be one of the all time dumbest draft decisions...no, the all time dumbest draft decisions.

when i was considering posting in the " i am the new GM this is what i do thread", this was the first thing i thought of.

i would take another qb just to push newton.

he has yet to be pushed at this level. competition breeds excellence...and there is zero competition with anderson and clausen on the roster.

it's one thing to go thru the motions of working to get better...it's another to actually put in work to keep your job.

geno smith is the qb in the upcoming draft that would push newton.

    • not sure if any of this is news, but a good summary of our situation heading into training camp.  It's sure gonna be good getting Derrick back. After missing virtually all of the 2024 season, Panthers defensive tackle Derrick Brown is aiming for a full return to the field during training camp later this summer, per Joseph Person of The Athletic. Brown tore his meniscus in Week 1 and underwent season-ending surgery that has kept him limited through spring practices, though he did participate in “walk-throughs and light side work” during mandatory minicamp, according to Person. Brown originally stated a desire to be ready for the 2025 regular season, but his timeline appears to have moved up. Brown’s injury was particularly disappointing after a career-best 2023 season. He led all defensive linemen with 103 total tackles and was named to his first Pro Bowl, earning him a four-year, $96MM extension from the Panthers in April 2024. While he has never been a prolific pass rusher, Brown’s size and power has consistently commanded double-teams and created opportunities for his teammates. His impact was evident last season, as Carolina’s run defense ranked dead-last in his absence. The Panthers spent significant resources this offseason on defensive line depth, which should allow them to manage Brown’s usage more carefully coming off a major injury. He played a whopping 940 defensive snaps in 2023 (89% of the team’s total) and was on the field for almost every play before his injury last year. With new teammates Tershawn Wharton, Bobby Brown III, and Cam Jackson ready to share the load, Derrick Brown can take a lower snap share to stay fresh and healthy for the entire season. Here are a few updates on other Panthers returning from injuries:     https://www.profootballrumors.com/2025/06/panthers-injury-updates-brown-tremble-barno-wallace
    • Yeah it's kind of like they don't want him on the team anymore for some reason
