Panthers offered "More than a 1st" for Stafford

Well, I would absolutely never have offered the 7th pick for him, and that we did is horrifying...  But, the good news we can take from this is, if we were willing to offer that for Stafford, but the Lions didn't bite, then we will definitely put out one of the best offers for Watson...  and in that scenario, he decides where he wants to go, so we probably have a better chance.

But again, I must reiterate, the only guy on the roster I'm offering them is CMC.  No other young players, especially not DJ or Burns, period.

A few more details from a couple of sources...

In his latest MMQB, Albert Breer confirms that we did indeed offer the #8 pick...plus a later pick. Also says that ours was the highest draft pick offered (which makes sense because nobody above us was chasing him). Added that it was down to us or Washington before the Rams stepped up their offer.

Peter King added that although Stafford was open to going anywhere except New England, he did prefer Los Angeles or San Francisco. King also believes we may have been willing to add Bridgewater to the deal but isn't dead certain.

Who are your sources?

Anyone else concerned Brady and Rhule seem to fall in love with every qb? Career backup becomes a “must have” with a 63m contract when others offered prove It deals. 33 year old qb with back problems was going to be acquired for the 1.08? Does anyone in the building know how to handle the qb position???

The desperation in offering a horrible deal to Detroit (if we were on par with WFT) is revealing not only in what little faith we have in Teddy, but how much we don't like the QB options at the 8th pick. The run on QBs before we pick might just force our hand in trying to trade down, or selecting some other position. That would put us in line to possibly draft Mac Jones if he falls to the second round.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Well, hope they're not worried about a torn Labrum or Rotator Cuff, as someone who went through that myself, I know those don't have anything show up on X-Rays but from the MRI, so this is kinda a nothing update, hope it's not a tear or his season is already over if they decide to do surgery now. Which is basically what would be needed to get him to 100% for the start of next season's training camp if it's a labrum.  If he plays the season with it and then does surgery, he's not going to be ready for camp and probably not the start of the season either.

      Preseason over..2025 predictions

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I always try to not pay much attention to a team’s preseason win/loss record. The 1982 Washington and 2021 LA Rams both lost every game in the preseason and went on to win the Super Bowl, whereas the 2008 Detroit Lions and 2017 Cleveland Browns both won every game in reason and went on to lose every regular season game. There’s many examples of teams that lose in preseason that go on to have good seasons, but equally there are teams that lose in preseason and that continues in the regular season. Which will we be?  I think our floor is a handful of wins, while our ceiling will probably be around the 9-10 win mark. The latter will require significant improvement from the whole team and coaching staff, and will also need Bryce to play like the QB we drafted him to be. I want to be optimistic and predict a winning season, but it’s really difficult as a Panthers fan!
