basically a clipboard holder for carolina right now. only 1 pass attempt this year so there's nothing to really judge. fine backup, not a guy you want starting.

Pickett is a credible backup because he has been through real NFL starts, not just preseason reps. He does not need to unseat Young; he needs to know the offense cold and keep the season steady if he is called.

Strengths: 27 career starts, winning record as starter, first-round arm talent, Hall of Fame Game start, and clear backup role.

Weaknesses: Has moved between several teams and must make the most of limited practice reps behind the entrenched starter.
