We may not be drafting a QB with the 8th pick but maybe later...

If it is true the Panthers were deep in the Stafford talks, then I don't see any reason to think as of now we won't be super aggressive trying to trade up for a QB.

Yep. All indications are that we were heavily involved in the Stafford trade talks and that we will be in the Watson trade talks when/if they get going. We definitely seem to be of a very aggressive mindset in solving our QB problem this off-season.

If you like a guy you take him , rhule loves Mac jones expect him at 8 I don’t think we should trade back because 49ers , pats , saints will snatch him . 
 

im fine with him or tre lance , just don’t want fields or Wilson which are terrible running qbs they are not pocket passers they are college system qbs. Mac jones is pro ready same with tre lance 

Lmao Mac Jones is not going 8th.

I agree, but we don't know "how deep or hard" they tried? It could be just due diligence and perception for the fans that they are trying every angle, so if it doesn't happen, they don't like they didn't try. If we are going to give away the farm, go for Trevor. He's as close to a sure thing in the draft as possible. But Watson and Mahomes were not #1 picks either so maybe wait. Its a crap shoot to a degree. Exciting if anything to see how it all unfolds.

You can probably get Watson for cheaper than Trevor.

NBC thinks Watson to Carolina is legit and we won’t settle for a rookie.  It would cost 3 first round picks.  Watson would love to have CMC, DJ and Robby as his weapons.  Rhule also said draft will be offense heavy.

I think it'll cost more than three 1sts. Three 1sts probably just kicks off the conversation. If you're not coming with at least that they're not even giving you the time of day.

    • You are right its close. They are just playing poorer than the Panthers, I think even without Hill they have more talent. Just happens they are checked out more than the Panthers. 
    • I got us at 31.  Dolphins O is better.   Think in terms of looking at the stats, we are so early into a season 1 game for each team is doing a lot of work to inflate our O and deflate theirs.  The Cards garbage time really distorts how horrific we are.   And the Phins week 1 really brings them down. 
    • If Canales is fired after this season, we need to go ahead and take off any names that will have options or the ability to wqait another year or two like Ben Johnson did. So for me, the realistic top options for Carolina from that list would be:   Mike McCarthy (3rd HC stint, will not be picky) Bill Belichick (NFL teams will not be knocking on his door, will not be picky) Brian Flores (tense first stint, pending lawsuit will scare teams away) Robert Salah (2nd HC stint, will probably not be picky) Mike Kafka (starpower has cooled, will need to accept a offer before it totally goes away) Arthur Smith (2nd stint, UNC may also be interested if Belichick is one and done, but he would likely prefer to stay in NFL) Jim Schwartz (2nd stint, hasn't really done interviews) Jeff Hafley (Has HC experience in college, I don't think teams will be knocking down his door, he will probably accept an offer)
