Should the panthers take a look at players in the supplemental draft?


Recommended Posts

In the wake of the events Columbus there are reports of five prospects, some of whom could peak the Carolina Panthers' interests should they choose to enter the supplemental draft, rather than wait and possible be suspended for an entire NCAA season. Remember that as the team with the worst record in 2010 Carolina would be awarded a player should they place an equal bid on him.

I'd be one to take a look at pryor in the fifth, incase newton goes down the offense wouldn't have to change very much for another mobile QB. But at the same time, he has value as an athlete and is much more athletic than newton. He could play wr or even tight end. Also WR DeVier Posey was projected as a 2-3 round talent. Both could be steals thanks to that awful ohio state disaster.

As raw a pryor is he was the number 1 player overall coming out of high school. some reguarded him as a lebron james type talent. Given the right coach and grooming he could become a nice trading chip for a cheap price. That kind of talent for a fifth or later round pick is to good to pass up.

whats the risk of drafting a talent like his with a fifth or later pick? No one is saying he even has to play QB. This team is in need of talent regaurdless of position. Jimmy is as good as gone. Grabing an athlete of this caliber who could have been a 2-3 round pick this season is to good to pass up. Yes we have cam and he is the future of the franchise but passing on a "athlete" with the potential to play the number of positions this kid can play would be a shame.

First of all I don't like Pryor from the way he handled the Ohio State situation. I think we can put our big boy pants on and say most big time football players at big time schools receive "benefits", but Pryor comes off as a jack ass to me. If we took Pryor it would make us even more of a laughing stock and whipping boy in the media.

Second he's not a position of need, we don't need another young quarterback we've got too many young QBs as is. I wouldn't mind taking that one 6'3 receiver they've got...couldn't hurt.

I would have rather drafted Tyrod than Pryor if I had to pick between the two....but with that said if we did draft him in the supplemental draft, that means next years pick would be taken away. So would you be comfy with knowing we drafted 4 kinda 5 QB's in the past 3 years? We would be the Lions of QB's if that happened.

First, you have absolutely no evidence that Jimmy is as good as gone.

Why would we release a 2nd round QB that was thrown into a horrible situation....just to draft ANOTHER questionable QB.

We would make the Cleveland Browns look like a brain trust if we pulled a moronic stunt like that.

    • from the observer     Miami Dolphins. The Panthers will welcome one of the most explosive offenses in the NFL, led by Alabama alum Tua Tagovailoa and fast-as-a-cheetah Tyreek Hill, to Bank of America Stadium in 2025. The Dolphins are 8-8 this year and are 6-2 against the Panthers all-time. *Seattle Seahawks. This home matchup marks a full-circle moment for Dave Canales, who cut his NFL teeth under Pete Carroll in Seattle. Carolina is 4-9 all-time against the Seahawks and lost the last contest in the matchup in 2023. Seattle is 9-7 heading into Week 18. *Los Angeles Rams. The Rams are perennial playoff contenders and have notched seven winning seasons the past eight years. The Panthers are 12-10 against the Rams all-time. *Buffalo Bills. This year it was the Kansas City Chiefs. This year’s Super Bowl contenders making a trip to Bank of America Stadium? Josh Allen and the Bills. The Panthers are 2-6 all-time against the Buffalo franchise. New York Giants / Cowboys. The Panthers had a home game — technically — against the Giants this year. That was in Germany, of course. And the 2025 Giants (3-13 entering Week 18) will look a lot different than the ones the Panthers faced in Munich, what with a new quarterback coming and a refurbished offense. That is, of course, if the Panthers finish last in the NFC South. If not, they face the Cowboys (7-9) New England Patriots. Panthers fans get an up-close look at their homegrown NFL quarterback when Carolina travels to Foxborough to take on the Drake Maye-led Patriots. The Pats are 3-13 entering Week 18. New York Jets. The Jets are 4-12 this year and have an existential crisis to handle this offseason — with their situations at quarterback and their head coach not exactly stable. At least for now, it feels like a compelling matchup for the Panthers on the road. San Francisco 49ers. The 49ers seem much better than 6-10. And they will likely be in 2025 — particularly if former Panther Christian McCaffreystays healthy. The Panthers are 13-9 against San Francisco all-time. Chicago Bears / Green Bay Packers. The Panthers are either playing the last-placed Bears or the second-to-last-place Packers in 2025, two very different. The mostly that emerged from Soldier Field this season focused on how much the Bears had “fleeced” the Panthers in their blockbuster trade before the 2023 season. But with Bryce Young playing well and the Bears in free fall and with a new coach incoming, that perception might be different next season. Tennessee Titans / Jaguars. The Panthers are facing either the last-place team or the second-to-last place team in the AFC South in 2025, depending on Sunday’s results. (A Titans win and a Jaguars loss could knot them at 4-13 each, but the Jags have the edge with their divisional record and would thus earn the tiebreaker.) Arizona Cardinals. The Panthers are also facing the Cardinals, who are entering Week 18 with a 7-9 record.
    • Who is J. Stafford and R Prescott? Looks like a random number generator piece of AI crap
    • Our offense averages 18.6 points per game, good for 25th in the league this year. Not great. worst offense ever? 7.4 ppg. Over 11 points per game difference. our defense? 31 ppg. Good for 32nd (by a lot) worst defense ever? 32.5 ppg by the 2020 lions.
