Last Qb he picked was Dwayne Haskins actually

I've watched tons of scouting reports on these QB prospects and the one thing i'm taking away from Bryce Young is that this guy's football IQ is elite. He has the work ethic, grind, and demeanor to be a cerebral QB, he reminds me of Peyton Manning's approach to football but obviously the difference in size. Stroud is a great prospect in his own right, but I wouldn't pass up on a Peyton Manning when difference only is size.

Nah, in another video after Frank missed his initial hand shake he went back and shook hands with Stroud. "That's my QB!"

Watching the whole Panthers staff walk up to him and look at him with amazement is like bettors looking at a stallion at the Kentucky derby. "My what a fine specimen!"

look at that poise even under stress, nothing bothers him, nice recovery lol

I watched Stroud's pro day and personal interviews, he is well spoken and seems to be very religious thanking God in each of his interviews. Stroud already checks all the boxes you want in regards to physical tools as a QB. I think the factor that will separate him from Bryce is demeanor and how they each carry themselves. It may be a small point but I think it's huge that Frank being a pastor will pick Stroud because his personal makeup. Nothing against Bryce's personal religious beliefs.

For anyone thinking we have a chance for Marvin Harrison Jr is delusional. We already traded next years first rounder.

Andy Dalton: "So Josh, who am I backing up this year?" Josh McCown "Look at all of these "sources" that know who we're going to pick!"

Size is a concern, however big, tall, strong QBs also get hurt. I think he has proven that he can be a great QB, what's going to separate him from the others is his football acumen during personal interviews. I saw an interview where Daniel Jeremiah was talking with Pat McAfee and there are reports that Young has the right attitude, football intelligence, and maturation to be a franchise QB. Young was watching tape on Sundays after their games on Sat and going to coaches and giving them a game plan. His work ethic and drive reminds me of Luke being a film rat and know all of the offenses plays. Luke ended his career because of concussions even being in top physical shape. I would rather have 5-7 years of hall of fame production compared to 10 years of average play.

Does Dhop have a no trade clause? If he does then sure he can refuse to come here, but if he don't then he is going to the highest bidder. DJ Moore didn't have a say in going to Chicago

If Panthers are interested in Theilen at age 32, they surely would be interested in Hopkins at 31. I don't expect Hopkins or Theilen to save the day but their exp and production is invaluable to a rookie QB at this time.

I agree that it was dumb trade, that's why I don't think he is even worth a 2nd at this point. If he wants to come home and finish his career in Carolina that would be incentive to come here. Also I really believe that with this staff and the right rookie QB, we can be a play off team this year in a weak division. Arizona is not going to the playoff next year with Murray out for a prolonged time.

Is Hopkins at this point in his career worth a 2nd round pick? He was traded for a 2nd round pick and more in his prime, he can probably be had for a 3rd.

Uh, they drafted him to give him a chance at his NFL dream, paid him millions of dollars to play football, coached him, put him on the field even started him at some point. So yeah, I think he's had his fair chance to develop into at least a decent TE at this point it's on him.

Ian Thomas is a waste of a roster spot, sure he took a pay cut but what has he done for this team on game day? Are we going to carry 3 TE on game day? Just let him go.

At this point, essentially Young and Stroud is 1a and 1b. It all depends on the flavor you like. To me, Stroud is your more traditional drop back QB, take what the defense gives you, and be accurate. Young is more of a playmaker when things don't go well, I feel like he has more potential to make big plays. Stroud can sustain a 12 play drive, where as Young can give you a 50+yd chunk play any time. I prefer Young but wouldn't be mad at Stroud.

Wow! This is what I expected! We need our franchise qb now! Hate to see Dj Go but he is replaceable.

How do you know that he WON'T be a franchise QB? Life is all about risks, everyone knows that tomorrow is not guaranteed, but if you also don't take risks you'll never achieve greatness. Do you know what your future holds? You don't, but you do the best that you can and make a calculated decision!

A franchise qb is never too expensive. A franchise qb will bring in millions of revenue, notoriety, keep you in contention for super bowls. Invest in the now!

People who say "wait for next year" are the same people who hold off on prostate exams and colonoscopies until next year. I say take it up the ass and get it over and done with, it might even save your life!

I don't think Carr is a terrible QB, I just don't think he has enough to get a team to the supberowl. Analytics and stats are great to go off of, but there are the "intangibles" that's not accounted for. Kirk, Rodgers, and Dak have some great stats, etc, but why do they perennial drop out of the playoffs?

What AR did physically in the workouts don't matter as much. I think the Panthers really wanted to sit down with him in the private interviews to gauge his leadership, football knowledge, and competitiveness. I think Young and Stroud have him beat in that department and that's why they are ranking him lower. He did boost his stock at the combine and I think the Panthers would feel better about drafting him if they miss out of Young or Stroud. It's still a good interaction overall

Now we will see if it was really the Raiders sucking or Carr sucking?

That's why I trust Fitt and Reich to make the right move at the QB position even if it costs a fortune to move up. Their careers are on the line and tied to this QB pick, I'm sure they know that. Freaking Rhule thought he really had 7 years to build here.

If he makes poor coffee choices, imagine him making split second football decisions? "what coverage do you see? Mayonnaise!"
