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.

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By trucpfan · Posted

      This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.

      Give Legette another season?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
