The COLTS are working out Mark Sanchez. The Indianapolis freakin Colts are working out a QB...how is the team with the best QB in the league working a guy out and the PANTHERS haven't even sniffed a first round QB and our guy is Jake Delhomme?? Granted they probably are not going to draft this guy but it just gives you a little perspective as to how stubborn this organization is with drafting first round QBs..

Every team is interested in just about every 1st round prospect. No doubt the Panthers have seen Sanchez workout.

Last year the Panthers were one of the main interest in Matt Ryan.

Just because you don't hear about what the FO does, doesn't mean they're not doing anything.

Good lord, I love how ANY QB related topic always ends with the poster mentioning something about how its insane that we still have Delhomme or something along those lines.

The organization, and especially Fox, don't like drafting young QB's. Especially extremely inexperienced QB's such as Sanchez and Stafford. They prefer experience. Yes, they are stubborn with drafting first round QB's.

Not to mention, first round QB's are pretty damn risky for the amount of money they get. They are an extremely risky position. Look at the lame-ass QB's that have hit in the first round since about 1995: Kerry Collins, Jim Druckenmiller, Ryan Leaf, Tim Couch, Akili Smith, Cade McNown, Chad Pennington (although he might have finally found his stride), Michael Vick, Joey Harrington, Patrick Ramsey, Alex Smith, JP Losman, Byron Leftwich, Kyle Boller, Rex Grossman, David Carr.

Comeon. And since then, what 1st round QB's really showed solid excellence? Peyton Manning, Donovan McNabb, Carson Palmer, Eli Manning, Ben R., Matt Ryan, Daunte Culpepper (debatable...), Phillip Rivers. Not many.

The Panthers are smart because they'd much rather invest in solid defensive/offensive linemen or running backs or DB's. They are easier positions to transition to in the NFL. They can be starters for years and years.

QB's are just damn tricky, especially young ones.

      Fix Your Franchise: Carolina Panthers

      By fanpanther · Posted

      100% even if rest of team is really talented if they march young out to be qb and he plays like he has for 90% of his starts the panthers have already lost doesnt even matter how good the rest of the team is or isnt and also makes it hard to even tell how good they are.  They need true competition for young this offseason.

      Another renovation to BoA?

      By dave-o · Posted

      It will be awesome to have an improved stadium to lose in I guess....   https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-file-rezoning-bank-america-111500840.html     The Carolina Panthers have taken another necessary step toward renovating their home of the present and future. Panthers Stadium, LLC, filed its rezoning site plan with the city of Charlotte on Monday, initiating an important — if mostly technical — step toward renovating Bank of America Stadium. The filings state that the rezoning relates “primarily to technical aspects associated with improvements to Bank of America Stadium,” and that the rezoning is required because “the current stadium zoning is out of date” for the team’s stadium renovation plans.   The planned stadium updates include new seats installed throughout the upper and lower bowls; stadium safety and security enhancements; a reimagined South Lawn Pavilion; upgraded restrooms; exterior enhancements (including LED video boards) and more. Planning for the stadium renovation project will continue through 2025, with construction starting in 2026 and the renovation’s conclusion in 2029, The Observer previously reported.
