I think if a talent like Tua falls to us we take it.

Tua throws 5-10 yard passes that his receivers take for 60 yard gains.

Personally, I would rather have one of WRs Jerry Jeudy or Henry Ruggs from Bama *way* more than Tua.  Would rather have LSU's Burrow or Oregon's Herbert if Carolina picks a 1st round QB. 

If they want to take a flyer on potential, a 2nd or 3rd round pick on Washington's Jacob Eason would be nice too.  Dude checks all the boxes except for experience.

I disagree. I’d say the 3 best teams are coached by Harbaugh, Carroll, Belichick in that order, and these 3 are clearly above the rest.

Coaching/scouting is the most underrated element of football. QB is the only position that significantly matters as far as who is playing it. You have to hit on those two things. The rest is just good drama. If you can’t win without the best talent, then your coach simply isn’t good enough.

Tua throws a great deep ball. I remember him coming in and rallying his team against UGA. He was dropping bombs that game as a freshman. The worry about him is injuries and as you mentioned he was surrounded by a lot of talent. Haven’t heard anyone else complain about his deep ball. Burrow and Herbert (probably Tua) will be gone when we pick. If Tua drops because of his injuries we should take him is all I’m saying.

We have been hearing for years how its all about building around a qb on a rookie contract, but how many superbowls have been won by a qb on a rookie contract in the last twenty years? Last one I can think of seahwaks with Wilson?

steelers won in Ben's 2nd season, Giants won in Eli's 4th season. Eagles won with Foles but Wentz on his rookie deal got them to 13-3. 

Tom Brady isn't paid nearly what he could be on the open market and Flacco/Brees/Rodgers weren't on hugely massive contracts when they won, which further supports the premise. Perhaps the better questions is to ask how many Super Bowls were won by teams spending a massive chunk of cap (think current going rates) on a QB? 2015 Broncos and... no one else.

And the 2015 Broncos could have won with me at QB.

Agreed. NOLA is on it's last fumes, unless they stumble into a rookie QB that's legit. Falcons are an absolute tire fire. Bucs are the bucs. Everyone will say they're the dark horse next year, just like last year and the year before that but until they get rid of Jameis they will never be a consistent team

He looks very inconsistent. I think if a talent like Tua falls to us we take it. If not we see how Cam’s health is. If that looks bad we might have Allen and Grier battle it out... Maybe his inconsistencies can be fixed? Who knows?

Tua, really? Have they found out of the kid can walk or run again yet? I mean, that injury is much worse than what Cam is recovering from. Hate to say it, but I don't think the young man will have a professional career and that's a sad thing.

      As fans have we unanimously concluded that Bryce Young IS THE PROBLEM

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      If my reply comes off argumentative, that is not my intention so please don’t take it as such.  You said one word, probably subconsciously, in your post that immediately disqualifies him from being a QB in the NFL. You actually said it twice. Kid. It’s exactly how you see him, and exactly how the rest of the entire NFL sees him as well.  Yes, he is a kid, he looks and acts like a kid and that exactly IS the problem. The NFL is for grown ass men. Period. Hell, our kicker looks like he collects ‘taxes’ as a side hustle. These are straight dudes. Men.  Nothing in his persona changed from last year to this.  Nothing in his physical stature. Nothing. He has shown 0 development. 0. And he disrespects the entire organization, talking video games and Netflix in the offseason. Bro. Really. My man Chuba is busting his ass to look good for his second contract. Set himself up for life. How many RBs make it to even sign contract #3? First 2 games he has to run in to a brick wall continuously because Netflix can’t even get it over the LOS.  He’s a kid who pulled off the biggest heist in world history. He looks happier on the sideline goofing around than he ever has looked on the field. It’s time to cut bait.

      I hear you and I can imagine it's frustrating as a fan, but UNC-CH leaving the ACC would be throwing away over a century of history. It would really suck if y'all, or Clemson, or any of the other remaining charter members leave. I still think it sucks that Maryland left as well. Feels so wrong not having that rivalry anymore. Maryland fuging hated us and I loved it. Who's Maryland's rival now in the big 10? Rutgers? lol. Also, I think that the Heels are more likely to be Kentucky 2.0 than you are to get serious about football upon joining the SEC. Both UNC (and also Duke's) administrations seem very stuck in their ways with sticking to their ways and remaining basketball powerhouses. I do wish we could see NC teams actually competing in my favorite sport sometimes but alas. I personally value keeping our history intact over trying to become top flight CFB programs because nowadays it's just a pay to win sport anyways. Even if UNC-CH got serious I doubt they could compete with that Texas oil money, or that Oregon nike money, or that USC rich kid money. That's all top level college football really is anymore. You're either an established blue blood or you're willing to waste tons of money that could be spent on education rather than football.

      Maybe a move to the SEC forces UNC to be more serious about football?   I mean we should be making noise in the weak ACC and we can't even do that. How is Duke better than UNC in football right now? It's honestly sad and pathetic.   It doesn't matter if we get another great QB as you said a QB doesn't mean you have a great roster. A QB can only do so much. We lack elite guys in the trenches. That's how you build a program. It starts up front.
