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.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By SCMunnerlyn1 · Posted

      Just as we won those close games we could have just as easily lost them. So the jury is out on if we were more lucky than good ( see the sweep by the saints) Were moving forward on paper. And how badly dont we all want to see us back to at least Above average form. Its about time.

      Ranked Panthers as the Best this year!!

      By frankw · Posted

      If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
