The huddle negotiating:

He has never played a full season (ACL/Bicep problems). Teams didn't want him on their opening day roster following the ACL injury. Brought in off the street mid season as an emergency/temporary RB for the Titans last season. Practice squad hero.

Colts and Falcons tossed him.

For a big back he doesn't have much power and gets taken off his feet easily. Stumbles and falls down often. Poor balance. Seems to want to avoid contact. Slow. Doesn't bring the same push he did before the ACL injury. Needs a strong interior OL that can open holes.

Looks more like a good undersized TE/H-back. Good hands and great in the open field.

A one and done player if he doesn't get cut in the preseason or tossed out during the season. Could be an ask by Watson. He wasn't receiving any offers. He has never been offered more than $1M for a season. Panthers overpaid for a practice squad player.

 

Man you always hating on somebody unless it's Calvin Ridley

I mean it says a lot about our society that a guy that potentially did some really bad things has the entire NFL waiting on his decision.  I wish we weren’t even involved to be honest 

You've been refreshing hours on end right here with us

Damn, you hate him so much. Did he bang your daughter or something?

No I want a real offense and a real QB so we can stop getting blown out by the likes of the Giants Dolphins and WFT. If you're cool with that skip over the post my guy no worries.

Things Panthers players aren’t doing

Christian off with his girl and a lot of the other guys don’t overly care

He got his bag. That’s what happens when you make an RB the face of your franchise and think you're going places.

Good signing. Had him on my fantasy team last year too he was legit.

Nobody wants to watch Sam Darnold play quarterback here anymore not even the staff. Why do people keep suggesting this?

Watson coming to Carolina

 

Although Houston milking this out til June 1st would be ideal, (a trade with ATL)the draft gets in the way of that.

Once again, the details agreed last night, will surprised a lot of you. 

* Houston would get donkey of the day.*

Fug that next year noise. Keep Burns and Chinn. Get an LT a C and welcome Malik Willis to the Carolinas. Let the old school fans who whine about mobile quarterbacks sit in the corner with their Jake Delhomme highlights.

Now the 49ers involved. Looking like the idea of getting Watson without giving up any players is fantasy.

If he actually prefers the Saints overall move to the draft and keep building the oline. No need to waste precious opportunities while our defense falls off a cliff for someone who prefers the swamp rats over the Panthers.

If he's exhausting options it's either to drive up the price or we are only his reluctant destination which would make giving up a haul for him moot as we would face an uphill battle in retaining his services down the line.

Well I guess nothing today then. That Thursday prediction might be spot on after all.

Well yeah but the only way we could swing that would be with more picks right? I would have nothing bad to say about Tepper if we made that happen though.

This is just games driving the price up. It'll be over by the evening most likely regardless.

I advocate holding onto the best running back in the NFL, a multi-position All-Pro player who's been healthy since Christmas and was held out to tank. But for a good price (an actually good one, not a second-round pick Rhule will use on some loser he recruited), I would be willing to part with most any non-Burns or Moore player. 

I want a plan in place that offsets the recent stupidity. I want to extend Moore, fortify the offensive line, and fire Matt Rhule. I want to keep Brian Burns, a Pro Bowl DE on a rookie contract, and I want to add a run-stuffing DT in the draft. 

The stuff about holding CMC out is fan speculation. There is a truth we know even if you do not want to admit it. He is not the do all offensive piece you or the coaches have hoped for. Having the best RB cannot make up for not having a franchise QB. I'd like those things you mention too but I don't think it all happens together with a franchise QB. By the time we back our way into one the core will either be aged out or sign elsewhere. You can't just wait around hoping the next franchise QB will fall into your lap. Either you just suck and draft one every year or you make a move when one becomes available which is not often. That's where we're at

Just now, Carl Spackler said:

The problem is you're giving Houston the 5 in your 5-12, and you're keeping what got you the 12. It's the football version of an NBA club pairing Kyrie Irving with a team of rec-ballers, but selling it as progress. Doing something different is just that: doing something different.

I don't advocate silly risks from a front office that is batting .000 on any kind of critical decision (Bridgewater, Darnold, trading a 3rd and Arnold for a trash CB, etc.)

Yet you advocate holding onto an oft injured running back that is crushing our salary cap without a real QB. What do YOU want?

You think giving up all your high draft picks for three years, plus all of your good players equals winning MORE?

Oh three firsts is steep. But that does not in any way guarantee Houston multiple Super Bowls. And we have yet to get a confirmation on the players involved. But I've been saying we need to change course and start going all in on the offense in a league that is now clearly driven by it. Even if we don't land Watson I will still feel that way.

I think he’s going to browns, then coming in now is weird. I think they have more assets than us plus a qb.

1 minute ago, Carl Spackler said:

The price is too high. He’s a good player but you’re just giving the Texans a couple Super Bowls. 

Multiple Super Bowls really? And you have been loving having the highest paid running back in the league with no viable starting quarterback. Do you not like winning or what?

I just don’t want to see the franchise lose Brown, Burns, Chinn for a guy who QBd a four win team recently. 

Why only focus on that? Stafford went from 3 wins in 2019 to 5 wins in 2020 and everyone jumping on his dick in 2021 wanting to trade for him.
