I think Lance is known for his accuracy and IQ. He honestly just needs more experience and might be the best QB from this draft when it’s all said and done.
-
Yeah he was injured. Newman would have been the starter. Smart knows if you bench high profile players that transfer, it can be bad for future transfers.

Panthers confirmed to be in Stafford discussion

Newman needs reps bad, but I feel like there is definitely talent there. Would have been interesting to see him play at UGA this past year....
-
Would be nice to extend Moton and have Sewell with our bookends locked up for the next five years. Maybe we try to trade in late in the first to pick pick Mac Jones or sign Mitch (would be an upgrade over Teddy) to a one or two year deal.
-
Yeah but it’s more important to see skill players work with different teammates. For example I was wanting to see Jones play against equal talent. Punters shouldn’t really look much different with different teammates as long as the ball makes it to them ok.
-
They are just trying to showcase these players for the NFL.

Banks is looking like he has some power on the line.
-
I believe he is a junior.

All 32 starting QBs predicted (Matt Williamson)
ForJimmy replied to CRA's topic in Carolina Panthers
A very valid question. The first thing I would think is athletic ability. I’ve seen Burrow escape tackles and make some incredible throws off the run under pressure. He had some great pocket awareness in college. Even in the pros with a terrible offensive line, he was playing solid until he got hurt. Jones doesn’t seem to have the speed or quickness to avoid sacks (he has never really had to). From the games I saw he was also throwing some quick passes to a wide open Smith and even his deep ones had Smith pretty open. Burrow’s throws were in tighter coverage with some insane ball placement. Jones may turn out to be great. He may show some great pocket awareness and move around to avoid pressure. If we do draft him, CMC will be a great safety net if he is under pressure. Hopefully he can stay calm and still make his throws. He has just never had to worry about many of these things in college. I think Jones is just a lot more of an unknown than Burrow. The good news is our coach is getting an up close and personal look at him in the Senior Bowl. If he thinks he is the guy, I trust his opinion for now, -

If we miss on other options, he might be an upgrade over Teddy for a cheaper contract.

Mac Jones won’t last until the 2nd round. I’m not a fan at picking him at 8, but if it’s in the 2nd it might be worth the risk. I just don’t see him falling that far. -
Sign Moton long term and try to extend Miller (or another journeyman) for cheap. Draft some guards to compete in rounds 3 or later. LT is going to be the tough one... some of our backups looked serviceable last year, but we definitely need some new faces there to compete...

The Lone Ranger: What to do with Matt Paradis?
ForJimmy replied to WarPanthers89's topic in Carolina Panthers
Yeah, let him finish his last year and extend Moton so we at least have 2 familiar faces. LT is a top concern, we can probably pick up a FA guard and draft one in the 3rd or later... -
Ok so people are just doubting that he wants to be here, not that we are interested. That makes more sense. I would think the new staff/owner being all in on building a winning organization plus Moore, Anderson, CMC would be attractive for a young QB. He also played for Clemson so he knows he has quite a fan base here. I don’t see him turning down playing here...
-
Why are people having trouble believing this. Our staff from the owner to the coach have basically said we are looking to upgrade our QB position. A 25 year old pro bowler would definitely be an upgrade and he wants to be traded. We also have an aggressive and involved owner with a new GM who would love to make a big splash. Tepper is invested heavily in this team and Watson in Carolina would be insanely marketable.
-
We currently have 0 offensive lineman and no TE worth anything. The main concern is while Moore and Anderson are great, they won’t have as huge of a gap between their competition as the players at Alabama did. I’m not saying Jones will be bad, he is just an unknown right now not unlike Lance and Newman. If we draft him I’ll get on board. I actually trust this staff to evaluate and develop.
-
Makes you wonder where people get this stuff...
-
Well it might workout good for us. LT first, Newman second could be a solid backup plan...
-
He is average at best. Solid starter, but can’t put the team on his back.
