This is not as unlikely as many may think.   I would love our options if it does pan out like this. 

How would you feel if after Jacksonville takes Lawrence.

The Jets do not take a QB and stick with Darnold (which has been mentioned in the press)

Miami passes on a QB too and stick with Tua.  Same thing here many have said they will stick with Tua

Atlanta will take Fields or Wilson

Cincinnati  take Sewell

Philly passes on a QB

Lions have Goff

That leave Fields or Wilson, and Lance.

Tua and Darnold are both worth replacing so I assume they will pick QBs until they prove otherwise. Who knows, bad teams make bad decisions. I sure hope we luck into a drafted QB this year. Thr other options are bleak as hell. I don't even think Goff is safe, it looked like a contract dump to me over a talent acquisition.

In this market Goff is probably way too talented to dump. Could they end up trying to move him elsewhere? Maybe

Maybe, don't know who wants to buy tho.

It looked like their GM saw him as the answer or it was a player dump for draft capital. The second is ruthless but effective and the first is extremely suspect. If they did a cash dump and can turn around and get another pick, that GM has impressed me for sure. With his ties I suspect they will give him a shot.

What if Goff and their 1sts was part of a deal for Watson. Lol it's crazy season

I would think at least 5-6 teams would have interest, if not more. 

Goff may be average or better(or worse) but even those QB's are getting to be rare in the current NFL.

I just don't get it. People paying top dollar for known commodities so the seller can go replace them with a better option. Just bananas. At least the Rams are making a legit attempt at a run, the proposed deals all have us being privileged to treadwater at a premium. At this point, just keep the 8th and see what the draft brings.

I think finally all 32 teams understand that if you don't get better at QB, you aren't going to get better as a franchise.

Plus you also have more openings at QB as former elite QB's retire and get close to retirement. 

It has made this offseason(and it hasn't even really officially started yet!) extremely exciting.

If you don't get good at QB there is no hope. Better is just staff covering their asses or doing something because they can't do something good. That is very shortsighted, risky and I'm not very forgiving of their desperations.

You are right, at least it is exciting. It would be a lot more enjoyable if we had a good QB and could sit back and enjoy the show. At this rate, we are getting a 2nd for Teddy yet?

      So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.

      My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
