What's the upside? I could see more upside with a prospect dripping with physical talent who was raw as hell. At least there would be upside. I just think Zappe is probably as good as he's ever going to get because I don't think there's any addition physical ceiling there to strive for.

Chad Pennington-esque. He could be an upgrade as a #2 or #3 QB. 

Definitely a guy I could see as a 4th or later gamble. But, like I said, I don't think we are that team. 

If I was the GM, no way I would take him.

Honestly, I think Pennington had a much better arm. His arm was subpar at the NFL level but I honestly think Zappe's arm is significantly subpar at the college level.

I was really interested in seeing him and agree. Dissapointed.

K, so next dates up--Combine later in the month.  And then we look to March 17 & 25--Pickett & Corral's pro days will be the next big ones.

Next date is the HBCU Legacy Bowl on 19 Feb for scouts. Then the combine. Then pro days.

Wait did I miss the east west or is that defunct?

Yeah, it is possible. IMO, fairly equivalent but not a guy I would take.

As a Panthers fan, I would assume we have a top 30 grade on him.

It was Thursday. Here it is if you can't get it on demand. There was a topic here for it too Thursday night.

Oh I was in the midst of a 17 hr drive to Alabama. Raleigh to Bean Station TN to Dothan Alabama.

I'll check out the thread.

Too bad the Blue Grey went away. These kids need as many chances as possible to pad that resume.

Fair. At least there is some potential upside with Zappe but the cost depends on the round. 

Walker went undrafted for a reason. If Zappe went undrafted would I give him a call? Absolutely. Would I spend a draft pick? Honestly, no.

I honestly don’t think there’s one qb playing in this game who is worthy of a top 20 pick. If we skip out on getting a good tackle and take one of these guys instead I’m gonna lose my ****.

Zappe put up video game numbers in college but he got exposed today as simply not an NFL QB. He doesn't have an NFL arm. I mean, not even close. I thought he was an intriguing mid-round pick prior to today. I honestly wouldn't draft him after today. I don't think he's a draftable prosect.

A lesser Tim Couch?

Way lesser unfortunately.

But is he worst than PJ Walker? 

If that is the line, I think he makes sense for us.

Outside of that, absolutely makes zero sense.

It sucks to think of that being the standard to go by, but I suppose it legitimately is.
