NFL Network previews the QB carousel


Mr. Scot
 Share

Recommended Posts

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.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
