Per source, Carolina is one of Deshaun Watson’s preferred destinations if traded.

Random guy in SC pretending to be a journalist probably not a solid source 

You can choose to be skeptical, but no need to insult a guy who is establishing a career for himself in journalism. I’ll be more than happy to remove the thread if that’s the case. He’s a local who has connections within the organization (which is how he managed to get an exclusive interview with Pride Jr.) and local media.

Why are people having trouble believing this. Our staff from the owner to the coach have basically said we are looking to upgrade our QB position. A 25 year old pro bowler would definitely be an upgrade and he wants to be traded. We also have an aggressive and involved owner with a new GM who would love to make a big splash. Tepper is invested heavily in this team and Watson in Carolina would be insanely marketable.

Good thread. Thanks for sharing.

Probably because the source is a kid who's apparently either still in or just barely out of high school.

I thought it was the Jets...after it was the Dolphins..

Those are the rumors because they have the draft capital + young QBs to make significant offers. Ultimately, it’s up to Watson since he has a no-trade clause.

Here's a little more established source, with a pretty rational take.

 

Of course there's high interest. Pretty sure there is high interest from every QB-needy team and a few who want to trade their current QB for a future HOFer. But JJ's "whether" is the key. That multiple question is far from settled and tbh, doesn't particularly bode well given that other teams are in much better positions to broker a deal. 

If fans want to believe Watson loves Carolina so much he'll veto every other team, no logic known to humanity will dissuade them. Personally, I would love to have him here, I just don't see it as a very likely option.

    • Night and day difference in the front office investements.  Since Morgan has been in the FO (5 years)....4 out of 5 first round picks have been offensive players.  The one defensive pick was a corner. Expand it out to the first 2 rounds? 7 out of the 9 picks have been offensive.  That IMO is why our D sucks so bad.   You build defenses up front.   Carolina hasn't been investing there.  Ron's first 5 years? 3 of the 5 first round picks were defensive players.  Expand it all to include second rounders  7 of the 10 picks were defensive.  All front 7 players.     
    • I think he gets this year to show what he can do.  Last year, we had a lot of injuries. This year, we should have some players, even if we lose one or two.  It's the first preseason game.  Some of the starters weren't even in it.  There is no scheming or game planning.  Let's see how guys do when it counts. I think we have a GM that knows a thing or two about defense.  Let it play out.
    • I was ok with the mentor aspect of keeping Dalton, but wow has he fallen off the deep end. The slow behind the WR interception was awful. I keep hearing our WRs created no separation, but on that particular play dude was wide open and Dalton couldn't get it to him with a clean pocket. Next year, we need to address the backup QB spot haaaaaard!
