New GM wants to upgrade QB/DB position and build out the lines.

Picking up Stafford would allow us to do that and remain within budget without trading one of our better young players.

Win, win and win.

But what would we need to give up to get him? I like the idea of trading back, filling those holes, and grabbing a young QB like Mond or Costello later on. If we have to give up a bunch, then we won’t be able to fill those spots in the draft.

Don't be surprised if the Lions and Falcons both draft a QB, along with the Jags and Jets. That's four teams minimum ahead of the Panthers that want QBs then you have teams right behind us like the Broncos , 49ers, Vikings, Patriots who could all trade in front of us for a QB.

 

If the Panthers staff really wants a competent QB they're going to have to make an extremely aggressive move (either trade up in R1 or trade picks and players for a free agent).

This would have been the perfect year to actually go 0-16 to 3-13 based on how fuging badly we need a QB but also preferring to keep rebuilding the team as a whole .

I could see half the fan base revolting if Fiterer does a massive trade down and we have a bunch of JAGs to go along with Teddy B in 2021 and we go 8-8.

Hell no trading anything for Stafford would be rediculous. The Lions have already stated he isn't in their plans. At least wait for him to be released.

I would trade them a bad contract--like Shaq--but I do not think he gets released--Indy, Washington, New England--they all need a QB---but who knows?

the source of every awful QB take on this board centers around "being economical" 

It's okay to get a terrible player like Sam darnold, as long as you don't have to give up a bunch, afterall, when the cap space and draft picks are factored into our W/L record at the end of the season, were gonna wanna be well off there

 

The panthers need to spend big-they need to spend high draft picks, lots of them if necessary, and spend a whole lot of cap space if necessary as well

Spend spend spend and get an elite franchise player

Of course Stafford wouldn't be the long term answer.  He'd be the stop gap measure TB was intended to be for us.  

Focus on O linemen and a DB this draft.  

and what pick are we gonna have when the time comes to transition

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.

      Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
