There have been a few GMs that have said they are glad they don't have to make that decision this year. Undoubtedly because they all have some traits you love, but each has some potential weaknesses that may haunt you. 

Spot on analysis.

Well look at it like this. There are 2 anomalies in this draft, Bryce Young and Anthony Richardson.  One is the smallest qb to ever suit up in the nfl. There other is a man child the likes of which we've never seen.  The little guy has 3 years of development on the man child. The big guy is un-molded clay needing an Allstar coaching staff to mold. The little guy has mostly been molded by someone else. Where do you go?

I'm starting to lean more towards AR. While his game may not be there yet and he is young and "raw", his physical gifts and his ceiling are too damn tempting to ignore. He may need to sit a year or partial year and I'm actually ok with that. I know everyone wants to win now, I do too. We have a couple centuries worth of experience in our coaching staff. If this is the Allstar staff we all hope it is, sitting for a season and actually getting adjusted to the NFL game could be very beneficial. We traded up to 1 in a class where the top 3 QBs all have question marks. I want the guy that has the highest ceiling of the group. If we swing and it's a miss, we have our 1st back in 25' to do it again.

Albright has been wrong before, but this was interesting. I didn’t listen but I wonder if he is implying we are trying to get a trade or just don’t give a poo and telling everyone Bryce is our guy. 

Trying to get Houston to bite and give up some picks and then get AR at #2.

Thats interesting because If the Panthers really do like Stroud then they have no reason not to dangle bait on Bryce to Houston all this time. What do they have to lose by doing it? Richardson just adds to it because he would just be another option only in a trade down. Its just as possible as them being really sold on Bryce instead. Point is, we really dont know nothing till it gets closer to the draft. Its stupid to get hopes up now on a specific thing to happen.

Bingo - and yet 3/4 of our fanbase is strutting around like trading the farm for #1 overall was a work of genius by Fitterer.

It's a tough call. Safe bet is Young if you want to start the rookie right away. I really do not have the warm and fuzzies for any of them. But we have to take one of them. I just hope they pick the right one.

I don't either. Because of that I'd be shooting for the biggest reward. Any of the 3 could be good or none and it wouldn't surprise me either way.

Naw…they are conditioning the fan base on what to expect.  Young’s the pick

You are probably right, but why not just say it? Also why bring in AR and Stroud for visits? It seems they are fairly confident it’s Young but are still doing some research.

Who knows.  I'm not convinced Person's source knows much.

Because if someone else makes you a ridiculous offer and you're not sold on 1 of the 3 as the best, you can still get a QB and some other pieces and improve the team. Have to at least show some interest in all of them to give yourself the most opportunities if you're not 100%.

I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that they seem really committed to seeing the process through, even if they have leanings or an idea of who the favorite is. It’s smart to me from a logical standpoint but I get how as a fan it could seem annoying with all the reports floating around now.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By Icege · Posted

      One has a proven, offensive-minded, Super Bowl winning head coach along with a top 5 OL + defense. He's being protected and getting the ball back not having to chase the other teams. The other had Frank Reich + Thomas Brown their rookie year with a bottom 5 defense as well as a bottom 5 OL that gave up the 2nd most sacks against a rookie QB ever. The sophomore season is being ran with a top 5 OL but also with a rookie HC (that has just one year of OC experience) and a bottom 5 defense still. The Broncos defense has allowed over 20pts just three times this season (26 vs. SEA (L), 23 vs. LAC (L), 41 vs. BAL (L)). Meanwhile, the Panthers have had ONE game where the defense gave up less than 20pts (vs. NYG (W)).   I'm not sure how folks couldn't expect Bo Nix to statistically perform better given their incredibly different situations. With that said, I didn't expect Nix to keep ascending as impressively as he has this season. Hopefully his arc will give other older college QBs a better shot, especially given the recent media blitz against the NFL regarding how development of the QB position in the league seems to be non-existent. Hopefully Bryce continues to improve as well, of course.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By 7CLOWNS · Posted

      “You can learn a lot in 10 games,” Nix said. “[I’m] still learning, still growing, but just finding ways to execute the play that’s called, no matter what it is: run play, pass play. It doesn’t matter. Just finding the right way to go with the ball.” To that point, Nix noted how his developing partnership with head coach Sean Payton has helped Denver’s offense get to the next level. “To be honest, I think at the beginning, you kind of make the NFL bigger than what it actually is,” Nix said when asked where he feels he’s made the most strides. “These players are really good, but at the same time, you have really good players on your level. I think simplifying the game, trying to play as fast as possible, and finding a completion, which is what we’ve been able to do here recently. “I think as we’ve gone on, Coach and I have found a good rhythm of what we both like, what we can kind of put out there on the field, and what we can execute. Then the guys have kind of adapted to it, found our roles within the offense, and executed at a high level. It’s just all about slowing the game down and processing things in a manner that you can handle. Just kind of see one or two things, and let those guys take you to where the ball is supposed to be.” -Bo Nix From what I'm gathering regarding Bryce, the Panthers entered this season with a reset mindset. It's Young's rookie year, which explains the benching. Now, we're beginning to see the development of Canales and Young's offense. Slow development but we're winning 😃
