Not impossible but I struggle to see it because I remember how pedestrian he looked at VT when he wasn't playing in that Tennessee offense. Did he pull a Hurts and improve tremendously in a different setting? Maybe. But I honestly doubt it. IMO he's a 3rd round talent.

 

 

Only because he got hurt. If he didn't get hurt he would be right in the first round QB talks.

Man, you are going down with the AR ship.  I commend you for fronting for you boy but the excuses you are making for him are crazy.  Peace brother 

I literally advocate for trading up to number 1 for CJ Stroud in every thread. I’m just pointing out the notion that only Josh Allen improved his accuracy from college to the pros is inaccurate. Look at my post history. I’ve been leading the CJ bandwagon since like October.

Do you think AR = Josh Allen?  Who else is AR?  Cam?  
 

BTW…one thing we have never seen is a run heavy QB surviving very long…even Cam.  Risky proposition

If I am not mistaken, they met with hooker twice.  That could mean that he is a fallback, or he is a sleeper hidden behind his age and injury.

You have to look at it this way:  Hooker plus this year's second and a first in 2024 and 2025  or Stroud? (for example)

No I don’t think AR = Cam or AR = Josh Allen. I don’t think there’s a good comp for AR. We’ve never had a dude at this size at QB as agile, quick or explosive, with a rocket for an arm, with as few starts in college as AR. Comps are usually silly but the Cam and Allen comps for AR are lazy to me.

Look. If the panthers brain trust thinks honey is the guy, I’m fine with it 

I just think. Cj. Bryce and Ar are special 

thwre is something about cj that bothers me. Not sure why as I’m a fan 

anybody but Levis ls. The gut did nothing in comparison liege and couldn’t make it at Penn state

He is an amazing athlete.  Agree.

We are on record you want to trade up to #1 with what that will cost for CJ Stroud,  right?

Could be smoke with all this move up talk and we move back and take Hooker later in the first round.  Perhaps we could move back up into the back end of the first round and take him there, taking BPA at #9.  Either of those scenarios I like better than moving up. I mean, everyone wants a rookie QB this year, right?  So they should be happy drafting Hooker.

With a staff that we've assembled, I'd be okay with trading up to #3 and getting whoever falls. That way we're - theoretically - giving up less than what San Fran gave to Miami (1st round swap from 3 to 12, a '22 first and 3rd , and a '23 first.

    • We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.
    • I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning. 
    • He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
