Like other people have said Foxy will never draft a QB we will pick someone up in FA (Cassel but the Pats would be stupid to let him go until brady shows hes back) or Matt Moore will be the future.

Actually, Fox has said that he doesn't believe in using a high draft pick on a QB just to sit the bench for three years when there are players in the first that can make an imediate impact. That doesn't mean that Fox and the Panthers wouldn't draft a QB in the first round if they know Delhomme is going to be leaving or retiring and they felt that a QB available would be able to step in quickly to replace Delhomme. If a QB from a college that plays in a pro-style system is available when the Panthers pick in lets say four to five years from now, they would draft him IMO. But they are not drafting a QB now when Delhomme is at least three to five years away from leaving/retiring.

I am a huge matt moore advocator (hence my sn), my man came out gunslinging last year. I think he is most definitely our future at qb!

[Mr. Scot]

matt moore is already developing and gaining the confidence and support of the players on the team.

i'm probably one of the rare ones who think that josh mccown wouldn't be a bad option, though. who would have thought that jake....a backup behind aaron freaking brooks' backup on the miserable saints team would ever do well with us?

panthers wanted him for a reason. dude has a cannon for an arm and is fearless and can handle a titty twister from steve smith. other stuff can be coached in.

my vote is for matt moore but i think that we could do/have done worse than a better coached mccown.

I'm in this corner too.

I think McCown could be a good transition between Delhomme and Moore. That'd be my ideal future scenario at this point.

You think Gruden will make a play for Cassell?

.... I mean they're going to need a new QB after Julius gets done picking Garcia out of his teeth.

[Mr. Scot]

Cassel in Tampa is not a connection I've made, but lord knows Gruden can never get enough QBs.

I have very little interest in seeing Cassel come to the Panthers.

McCown to Moore

Coach Fox will never draft a top name QB, he has said so many times.

When? I don't think that a top name QB is someone that the team WOULD draft, given the nature of this team. Knowing Fox and Hurney though, I can't imagine that either of those have ever actually made that statement though.

As I recall, Gantt was the one who spelled out their philosophy, though I'm pretty sure he didn't include any actual quotes (at least not in the story I remember). The story in question wasn't actually about this topic. It was just a throw-in.

In a round about way.... :angelsad2:

[Montsta]

A reformed Michael Vick??? It's a short drive up the highway from Newport News, VA...

[Carolina Crazy V2]

draft a guy in the late rounds that has petential but isn't polished yet and if matt moore doesn't get the job done, put in this other guy

[Smithers]

I do not see Fox drafting one unless he has the intangibles of Matt Ryan. I am impressed that Fox thought so highly of Ryan despite all the critics saying he could not be the future or face of a franchise. Maybe Fox can scout!
