From Rapoport, Garofolo and Pelissero...

The quarterback carousel has only begun to spin

Highlights:

Wentz trade compensation will be significant, but probably less than the Stafford deal (Bears or Colts most likely)

Saints would like to go into the season with Jameis Winston as their starter and Taysom Hill as his backup

Raiders seem agreeable to trading Derek Carr, but also might consider trading Marcus Mariota

Washington is looking at options (including Alex Smith) but could be especially interested in Sam Donald

...

No discussion of Deshaun Watson in the article and nothing too specific to the Panthers, but Rapoport and Pelissero do discuss Watson in this video (if you're a fan, you probably won't like it).

1. Trade for Watson

2. Trade up in draft (probably to #2 or #3) for Wilson

3. Trade for Carr

4. Lesser trade up in the draft for Fields or Lance (#5 or #6)

5. Sign Trubisky as FA (this could still be a bridge option if we plan to go with #4)

6. Trade for Minshew

Not interested in trading for Wentz, Darnold, or limping another season with Teddy.

Also FYI, the full terms of the Stafford deal, per Schefter...

Schefter added that when they first started talking to the Rams, the Lions tried to get Aaron Donald as part of the deal. Rams said no way.

That’s fair from the Panthers imo. And LMAO at the nerve of Detroit but you’ve gotta ask I suppose.

Made my edits above. But mostly agreeable.

In one of Schefter's reports he is talking about our offer for Stafford and thought maybe teams would call us. The thought was that we offered Bridgewater and picks so someone may call us about a deal. The one mentioned was Minnesota sending Cousins to us and them getting back a popular player for them. What's the thought of that?

The report confirming that the Panthers were indeed about to get Stafford before the Rams jumped in puts us in a strange position. We can’t keep TB on the roster this year. If we do it will cause turmoil between the staff and him/players because of known lack of confidence. It let’s other teams know we are borderline desperate meaning any trade whether it be draft or with a vet will squeeze out more than it should. We need someone with (literal) brass balls to finalize something before or early in the draft to keep unnecessary drama from arising.

The more I think about it, give me #6.

#1 will cost too much, but it is (deep down) the hope of every Panther fan.

#2 Is my draft preference,but it too will cost us a lot.

#3  not sure about Carr--I don't want Carolina to be nothing more than a pit stop for Carrs.  (Get it?)

#4 I consider this the probable thing that will happen.  

#5. Hard to get pumped about this, but as a free agent, on a good "prove it" deal....

#6.  He has never had a good team--college, pros, but has turned heads.  Lets sign him and give him a good team.

#7.  Again, a trade for Darnold is hard to imagine--based on his play so far.  However, if you think you can get something out of him and get him cheap, maybe a fall back plan.

      TMac to finish up Feels good after pads came on. Physicality is a little different, playstyle is a little different. Refs let the players play, so he has to earn his stripes to get calls and just has to be better playing through contact. Focusing on staying confident and listening to coaches. Not much has changed for him, still trying to be his authentic self. Was asked about boxing practice he was seen doing. He's done that since he was a kid because his dad was a boxer and taught his siblings. Was the youngest and got beat up the most, but now he's the fourth of sixth children. Boxing helps with his cardio and being reactive with his hands to the ball + DB. Admits to struggling the first couple of days, hats off to the DB corps for making him better every single day but had his best day on Wednesday. Even the best get got. Just have to remain confident in preparation and abilities. Confidence will take you only so far, and that's where his resilience plays a factor. XL is authentic and great to have in the room. Can rely on him to be the same guy every day. They make each other better. Everybody feeds off of each other and when one person wins they all win. Happy to be a part of the receiver room. Was asked about how he was laughing harder than everybody else at XL getting his feet in the water off the back of the boat: "Man he needs to be stopped bro... He can't be serious but he was serious. It's all good." Playing against the increased amount of press he's facing in practice is helping him get more physical. His job is to catch the ball, so if it touches his hand he has to come down with it. Only catches with one hand if he needs to, but that gives the QB a bigger catch radius. Had a pregame routine where he did a 360 one-handed catch, but doesn't do it anymore. Working on being a pro: Getting into the facility early and getting treatment, eating better, etc. Just wants to win re: rookie goals. Anything he can do to help the team win. "I'm looking for to the season man and keep pounding."

      DJ Wonnum up next Felt the defense came out ready to work at all levels and took over practice. New standard around here. Young guys have to know they're coming in to work. Last year was not the standard. Nic and Princely are fun. Different personalities but loves what they bring to the room. Sky is the limit for them. Nic sits next to Wonnum, Princeley sits next to Jones II. Allows them to be better mentors. Feels great and ready to go Incoom's athleticism allows him to bend and get low even to compensate for not being the biggest guy. Can set the edge. EDGE guys are helped when the ILBs can get home because it allows them to be a little more free while still in scheme. DB being back means his dominance is back. Can set the edge from the 3 or wherever he's at to make the runs bounce to the EDGE guys. Winning mentality and standard this year. Championship level from practice to how you live off of the field. Accept greatness and excellence with guys wanting to come to work every day. Not settling for anything less. Been in guys' shoes that are fighting for roster spots so he knows how to address them. Remembers not knowing what's next, especially as a rookie. Have a clear mind and ask the older guys a lot of questions. Has a good relationship already with Pat Jones II due to knowing each other and talking football all of the time. Can make hand gestures and know immediately what to adjust. Taking care of his body and excited to start the season. Getting it acclimated to football again by being able to tackle and bring players to the ground. Didn't know they were playing live tomorrow. Don't tell me it'll be "thud." Browns next week will allow them to hit somebody else and get a feel of what a different team is doing. Also allows the team to see where they're at on offense and defense. Ready to play football. Not worried about the QB matchup for Cleveland, going to play hard regardless of who is back there.
