I mean its reported that several front office folks love Young. Tepper is just the big name that brings attention. I can guarantee you Fiterrer is in the Young camp as well. Just read his quotes and watch his interviews and you can connect the dots.

I agree. I think Fitt is all in on Young. Especially after the success Russ had with his old team.

Yeah I see that, but it probably eases some of his concerns about height. The see a 5’11” QB have that much success.

As we discussed before, wilson was a threat to run in both college and pros.  1500 yards and 5000 yards in college and pros with double digit tds.  Young doesnt warrant that threat which IMO will be a problem in the nfl if the defense knows you dont do that.  I get the scrambling ability but the defense is going to hone in on that rather quickly when they dont have to defend you taking off and scrambling for 10+ yards

I'm just telling you what Fitt is probably thinking oh and he actually compared them. The second one is Reich talking about Fitt and the first one is Fitt himself.  They are definitely using Russ's success to look at Young whether any of us agree with it or not. 

“Yes, it is a concern,” he said. “But look at Drew Brees, look at Russell Wilson. So, are there very many quarterbacks his size that are high, high picks? No, there are not. But, there are exceptions to that. And there’s good reason that there’s exception to that.”

“It’s Scott Fitterer, it’s the GM, and he’s talking about Russell Wilson — who, by the way, I had a very high grade on. You don’t have to read anything into that, but I don’t mind telling you that I had a high grade on Russell Wilson. But don’t read anything into that, because I’m just saying that all these people putting this label on me that I only work with big quarterbacks. Don’t read anything into that.”

I like them both and they have been the best at their positions since HS.. Elite 11, state championship, college, and Heismen.. Both have been there competing against each other and both have been at the top because of their intelligence, work ethic and skill..

jmo I don’t think you go wrong with either 1..

I think its pretty obvious Fitterer loved Bryce day 1. I think Reich has been more free talking about how much he like Bryce than any of them specifically as well, but I dont doubt he could like Stroud more. I dont think it means he dislikes Bryce or doesnt want him though.

That's how it has looked to me.  Fitt likes Young and Reich wants to do a real deep dive into this class.

    • Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair. 
    • it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
