According to Garrett Podell at CBS Sports, the Panthers currently have the ninth-worst quarterback unit in the league.

Of course just one writers opinion. I personally believe we have made good moves, way overpaid for one, had a decent draft and then I remember, we have Bryce Young, all five foot 9 inches, 165 pounds at QB and my hope slides backwards.

Oh come on, bro!  He's at LEAST  170 lbs lol

LOLOL ...  Big Grin  The "truth is stranger than fiction".  Oh yeah...  I remember the truth before he was drafted. He was 'measured' before the draft and the numbers hovered between 5'9" & 5'10". He played at Alabama around 175-180. I heard him say it. No reporter picked up on it at the time, so it went largely unreported. At the combine he pushed fluids before the weigh-in -- LOTS of fluids. He supposedly got his pre-weigh-in weight up around 200. I don't believe it for a minute. He hasn't put on any visible muscle, so he can't possibly weigh weigh more than a buck eighty as a "playing" weight. So.... 5'9" - 5'10" about 180. That's what he actually plays at...

BY is one of the smallest players in the league, and definitely way outside the "norm" for NFL QBs. As of right now -- There are a couple of QBs in the league around that size. Other than BY, Kyler Murray is about 5'10, and the new guy, UDFA Diego Pavia measured 5'9 7/8". Historically, there have been two or three QBs "smaller' than this around  5'7" or so - dating back to the 1920 - 1930 era. May have been one as short as 5'5" - there are few records that document actual size. Diego Pavia is a PERFECT EXAMPLE of how "stats" can be manipulated. While at college his size was "listed" as much as 6'0" - which was a complete fabrication. He also went UNDRAFTED this year.

So -- There is precedent for a QB as short as BY, but very VERY few. If BY should ever get ranked as high as Kyler Murray, I would consider that a win. Just don't think it's gonna happen.
