Carolina Panthers to be 'aggressive' in pursuit of potential Deshaun Watson trade

One thing I haven't seen discussed:  The Texans are scheduled to play both the Dolphins and Jets next year, but obviously not the Panthers until 2023.  You never know, wanting to avoid that kind of matchup again, which very well could be a priority of a bad owner, could be the marginal difference that tilts things in our favor.

How many years did it take to Carolina to find a #1 receiver? 

How many years will it take us to find an “in his prime” Top-2 quarterback.

WR is overrated anyway.  Robbie at #1 with DJ at #2 and CMC in the slot is an embarrassment of riches.  

But our quarterback sucks.  If they want to include DJ in a Watson deal...I throw that card on the table without even thinking.

Then honestly they fine him his entire salary for next year and try again.

They're not going to give him up for peanuts.

The longer Watson goes without playing the less the Texans are going to get in a trade for him. That's where Watson has some leverage if he is truly willing to sit out a year (I kinda doubt that, but we'll see how far each side is willing to take it... Watson not playing hurts him too).

This. Other teams have more to give the Texans but Watson gets final say and he may not want to go to those teams. 

He's also under contract for five years and given the position he plays (a year sitting out wouldn't affect his value much) the Texans could play hardball with him and tell him to pound sand (sit out). 

I would love Watson btw I'm terrified bow much we would have to give up and the kind of line he would end up behind.

No way.  It will likely be top player, second rounder this year and 1st rounder next year.  I’m afraid DJ Moore might be a goner cause he got 1-2 year left and he’s worth a lot and Panthers might not want to pay him.

Rhule LOVES DJ. Recruited him to Temple. Arguably one of our top 3 players. No way he is leaving.

    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.  Mock drafts 
    • 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.
