Trade up with Dolphins seems the most likely at this point

From Breer’s report, the Panthers were the team that offered the most for Stafford outside of what the Rams ultimately gave up. The Panthers reportedly offered the eighth overall pick in this year’s draft along with a late-round pick. This is interesting because to me this team isn’t a Stafford away from competing, but it shows that owner David Tepper and head coach Matt Rhule want to win and win now. I believe they have every intention of upgrading the position and replacing Teddy Bridgewater. At this point in time, I think they are firmly in the running for Watson and I believe they will be very aggressive in their pursuit. If they fail to acquire Watson, then look for the Panthers to trade up into the top 3-4 and select either Zach Wilson or Justin Fields.

To obtain the  3rd overall pick from the Dolphins; the Panthers would have to send the 8th overall pick, mid round pick, and I figure either Bridgewater (which I don't mind) or another veteran player!

It would require much more draft capital than that to  move up to pick three from pick 8. Pick 3 is worth @ 2200 points and pick 8 is worth @1400 points. Without even factoring the likely premium that would have to be paid to position for a QB, the Panthers would likely have to give up this year's first, next year's first, and this year's 2nd round pick (maybe 3rd round) to move up 5 spots.

Panthers' first rounder - 1400

Panthers' first rounder next year - 500 (like a second rounder this year)

Panthers' 2nd rounder this year - 500 (brings the value to 2400, which is a bit of a premium)

If you use Panthers' 3rd rounder this year instead - 230 points (would bring return value to 2130)

Verge, Do you and your guy get info on possible upcoming trades and FA moves or is it strictly scouting/draft?

I can drop some buzz I hear, but it probably isn't any different from what you will here on ESPN. The draft is our primary focus.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
