Joe Person: Panthers would love to try and pry away Matthew Stafford

If you expect us to be good we're picking at the bottom of the rounds...this is not how you set up sustained success. 

Draft the QB this year, avoid paying the premium QB money for 4-5 years as you get the 5th year option, and BUILD UP THE TEAM AROUND THE QB. 

We are cash strapped till 2022, we can't afford to have TWO 20M+ QB's on the roster, what is wrong with you people!?

We could carry Stafford and Teddy for a year and then cut Teddy after the '21-22 season.

Not saying I am a proponent of this, but if we can't land a QB in the draft that we truly want and feel confident in I'd rather have Stafford than Teddy.

If we make a move for Stafford or Watson, Teddy's gotta go. We can designate him as a post-June 1st cut and save $8M against the cap. We don't need to spend $8M on a backup QB if we acquire a legit starter.

So since we won’t be able to get a QB at 8 because we won too many games, you would be happy with rolling with Teddy 2yds for another 5 wins and be in same spot. Sounds like a great idea SMH

Trading up for a QB is better than, 40 and a 1st for Stafford. How do you think KC got Mahomes, they traded up, PHI traded up for Wentz who was good til' the injuries hit. You don't trade for a QB with a 33M cap hit while also paying Teddy 20M+ and also having no future plan at QB because you JUST traded away a 2022 1st round pick.

That is idiotic. I suppose you don't want to keep the ONE good OL we have in Moton, let alone have cap / draft capital to devote to the OL. 

I swear tg ya'll are mental.

Yeah I don’t think anybody will trade for him but he will be gone

Agree with you, I was just saying it was possible for 1 year.

You can forget all the trade up crap they will not do that.

If we even consider giving a first for Stafford, Fitterer instantly is Marty territory of hate for me. This is coming from someone who LOVES Stafford. The ONLY way I do this is if we somehow get his contract where he's costing us less than 20mil a year, which is not going to happen.

Stat Padford is the type of overpaid, career loser QB you pass on in a trade in favor of getting a four year rookie contract cheap QB.

Watson, on a HOF glide path with potentially ten or more prime years, that’s who you take over an unproven rookie every time.

I bet it’s that dunce Joe Brady pushing for Padford, though who am I kidding he probably is still a believer in Teddy 2Ys

Ah yes, an aging veteran on the wrong side of 30, with an injury history, and declining stats.

Worked out so well for us with Okung, and countless other players, why not give Stafford a try and sink the Franchise 3 years further into the "rebuilding" muck.

Hurney is that you?

I wonder how Jeremy Chinn ended up on our roster...

The interesting angle is that our new GM is from the team (Seahawks) who traded down with us to get more picks.  So who knows if we take on that trading down philosophy that Seattle has been known for. Hurney  tended to trade up, Seattle tended to trade down.

    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
