Fun little factoid when thinking about potential QB draft picks for the Panthers

I actually like McCoy more than Bradford but that doesn't say much. I would much rather have Snead or Clausen over those two. For some reason every time I hear anyone talk about Bradford as an NFL QB I mind automaticlly asks why would Bradford make a good NFL QB and Jason White didn't? To me they both are very similar and produced about the same during their time in Oklahoma.

The one QB I'm surprised hasn't recieved more attention, but might once the draft approaches, is Max Hall. He reminds me a lot of Chad Henne when he came out. Hall in the 2nd could be better than what we could get in the 1st.

size, throwing motion, arm strength, technique, offensive system (jason white was running nate hybel's system), ability to make reads, and not playing on two surgically reconstructed knees.

Snead is going off of one game last year. No thanks, reminds me of Ryan Leaf.

And I will ban any and all who mention The Golden Calf of Bristol as a QB.

on the way home from the Wake game the guys I was with mentioned Bradford.

First thing I said was name the last OU qb to start in the NFL. crickets

Big 12 doesnt produce qb's.

I need to go back and look at Flacco, Ryan and maybe Sanchez to see what stood out for them.

Unless you are a total football nerd or from Delaware(me) I doubt Flacco was on your radar.

    • This is an often used, yet very misleading argument. There is no such thing as a team not making money in the NFL. Revenue sharing, TV contracts, etc. guarantee every team makes money every season. On the other hand, yes, one can call out an owner for being "cheap," but I'd offer that you should look at their cap situation before making that declaration. So, let's not confuse "cheap" ownership and how much money the team is making because they're 2 completely different things. In 2023, the league set another record with $13B in revenue, working out to $400M per team. https://www.sportico.com/leagues/football/2024/nfl-national-revenue-2023-tv-13-billion-1234786762/ The NFL’s economic model is the envy of every other major sports league, thanks to two main principles. The system benefits from a relatively hard salary cap that restricts owners from NBA-like spending that triggers luxury tax penalties. In 2023, the NFL salary cap was $224.8 million, with each club also on the hook for nine-figures worth of player benefits, stadium costs and team expenses. The other huge plus is the guaranteed check from the league each year that dwarfs the cap before a team sells a single ticket, beer, sponsorship or parking space. The result is that every NFL team is wildly profitable and worth at least $4 billion, with an average franchise value of $5.14 billion last year. Oh, and the team with the least amount of cap space as of yesterday, by some $2.6M, is the Carolina Panthers, with a mere $909k at their disposal. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/cap/_/year/2024/sort/cap_maximum_space
    • Trey Lance weren’t for a 4th and that’s with NFL tools. He is the most comparable insta bust that a team overpaid for.  so using that as the market, 5th or 6th for Bryce IMO and we would be lucky.  Basically just a team trying to get around the waivers that was interested in a project.  The not having the physical tools part is the killer.  
    • I'm not interested in seeing ANY more assets spent on offense and we can get a high pick by standing pat on the D and getting those backups snaps.  The more points we need to keep up, the more the offense gets experience and gives us some entertainment.
