Tanking does not guarantee a good QB

Some of y’all I swear. Point of the whole thread is just go try to win. 

Then say that lmao, that still doesn't control the fact that our offense is poo and most of us fabs know that while these players are going to play to win, long term it's best for the Panthers to try to hit on a 1st round QB plain and simple.

We're not seriously going to compete without an above average signal caller in the backfield. The NFL has proven this time and time again.

At some point we really need to draft a QB. Most starters are first round picks. So we likely need to get our guy there. It doesn’t have to be the top pick, but we need to find a solution via the draft.

Logical.  

College play can really over/under emphasize the ability of a player.  You see it every year.  2022 the best QB in that draft just might be Bailey Zappe.

That's literally one draft class, and lbr that's only because Fields and Jones were left. I love Horn but it'd be stupid to take him if Lawrence or Wilson were on the board given what we had at QB.

It's not even just the fact that "Haha QB if you get the #1 pick", even last year i'd say take Hutchins or trade down if we had #1 even with all our QB problems, but the fact that it is literally our weakest position and there's good prospects thereat the top of the draft.

I agree, at that point if we had Wilson or Lawrence at our pick it would have been insane not to take them.  That said, how many of huddlers would be screaming bust on either of them.  I say the book is still out on both.  I've seen Lawrence make some sweet throws and than just throw a terrible Int.   Same with Wilson.

Nothing guarantees anything, here’s some actual data.

# of super bowl winning QBs by pick in the past 20 years:

#1 - 3 Super Bowl Winning QBs

#10 - 1

#11 - 1

#18 - 1

#24 - 1

#32 - 1

#75 - 1

#88 - 1

#199 - 1

#227 - 1

The #1 pick has produced 3x more Super Bowl winning QBs than any other individual pick. Additionally, 3 other #1 overall picks, a #2 overall pick, and a #3 overall pick all played in Super Bowls over that same period and lost. 10 of the past 20 Super Bowls have featured at least one QB picked in the top 3 overall picks.

The Panthers options:

draft elite talent and hire competent staff to give best chance of success 

or

pick up an unwanted FA QB that has had little mediocrity play that no one else wants and hope they turn out

newsflash: option 2 is what we have been doing. historically it doesn’t usually work out and it didn't here either

newsflash #2: a worthwhile FA qb with options will turn this dumpster fire down. It’s already happened. Even coaches it’s happened lol they aren’t playing here, why would they?

soooo yea just what exactly is the plan to find a franchise QB? What is the Panther’s best chance?

or better question, why is this so hard to understand?

Most QBs taken high in the last 10 years have been busts. Just play for the wins. 

Ok cool great point. Let’s continue to win meaningless games and keep rolling out the bridgewaters, darnolds, mayfields, walkers of the world. I can tell you what that’ll guarantee.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Seriously, this is the exact post that makes me lose my damn mind, because you can't separate Collegiate game from the NFL. You think college stats = NFL projections/ability The college game is littered with MONSTER stats from QB's who never make it past NFL training camps onto a roster.  I'm not saying Sanders is like that of course, but just because him and the offense put up huge numbers, doesn't mean he's a surefire elite NFL prospect. The fact that you can't or refuse to understand that, is why anything you say is severely flawed.  Bash me for my love of T-Mac, but you just can't separate college box score stats from NFL projections, which is just asinine.

      Bryce is starter Sunday per Canales presser

      By The Lobo · Posted

      Did anyone see, I believer it was from Cat crave blog, say Diana Russini is doubling down on her info that Bryce could be traded by the deadline? Maybe him starting is to try and up his trade value?

      Yes, NAU "shut him down" by literally triple teaming him on almost every snap, I don't care how good you are, when you're triple teamed and your QB is playing poorly and behind an OL that gives you all of 2 seconds to make a play, that WR isn't going to do anything that game unless your coaching staff schemes him up to get quick passes, which they didn't.   Our Arizona boards have been losing their poo all season over how bad the staff is using him and their play designs/calls.   And as I've said numerous times, QB's don't get mocked by draft grades, those same experts that had Young and Stroud at the top of those mock drafts also openly admitted they didn't have them graded that high, same as this year's class. Also as I've said numerous times, look at the position label or what they say about Hunter in those mock drafts, they almost all have him listed as CB and/or discuss him as a CB in their breakdown of him, because it's his better side of the ball and where he's more likely to play.
