Meh, I'd rather draft pieces for a future QB than sell the farm for one guy who could easily get Cam Newton'd. 

The last regime failed Cam. Should have won a Super Bowl here. You don’t make deals thinking you can’t effectively build plans around them.

I think they'd have to also take Teddy for me to be ok with this. 

Why? Just cut him and let him find another tram. I think if he’s cut at a certain point of the offseason he’d be an $8 million cap hit instead of $23 million.

I think only $8-10 million instead of all $23. Maybe I’m wrong.

I am on my cell, and couldn’t tell from OTC, but thought it was higher. my apologies. But spotrac is showing $10mil guaranteed in 21.

Don’t forget we would get hit with $10mil prorated signing bonus too, so $23 mil cap hit with a $20 mil dead cap, so only a $3mil savings to cut him. 

But if we traded him, only $10mil dead for a $13 mil savings (the new team would take on the guaranteed salary).

You have got to give to get whether we like it or not.

I still don't think it's going to happen, we will either get a QB we like at #8 because our draft intel will be good enough to know what is going to happen 1-7, we may trade up if we feel like we can get a QB we really like, or if we just can't get what we want at #8 we'll trade back a little and get an extra later round first and maybe a 2nd if we deal well.

I don’t see how QBs don’t go 1-3 in this draft. The Jets and Dolphins would be stupid not to get the bounty of picks that will be thrown at them if they pass on QBs.  Lawrence, Fields and Wilson will all be gone quickly.  If the Panthers stay at 8 it’s Lance (who also may be gone) or Mac Jones.  If you want one of these guys Rhule has to be aggressive.

    • Yep, the Panthers powers that be seem desperate to convince themselves he can clear the bare minimum bar of demanding a legit franchise QB contract. Canales seems to be laying the groundwork here of building the case that all of Bryce's shortcomings are still there and even more glaring than you may have thought while his strengths aren't nearly as strong as you had hoped and aren't near enough to make up for the lack of pure physical tools. When you have historically anomalous lack of measurables you need historically anomalous positive intangibles to make up for it. That was always issue with Bryce as a prospect. Like Parcells said when evaluating him, "he better walk on water". 
    • I'm honestly not sure how much "west coast" plays into it. There's a huge difference between Tucson, AZ and Spokane, WA where he spent the previous two decades of his career. Chapel Hill is significantly different than Spokane but way more similar to it than Tucson. You're talking about a pretty significant plane ride to get back home either way. He and his family would be flying private and direct so we're talking about a 3ish hour flight vs. a 5ish hour flight. That's basically a wash. It's not like he went from Gonzaga to another PNW program. Tucson is a dramatic departure from Washington state. Honestly a far bigger departure climatically and scenery wise than Chapel Hill would be.
