We seem to be mentioned in every rumor or discussion whenever just about any player (particularly QBs) is brought up. I hope that we have an actual plan in mind and aren't just out there desperately trying to get anyone with a name and a pulse to join the team.

All of these mentions could simply be tons of twitter wannabe journalists just parroting each others' ginned-up rumors, or they could be a serious sign that our front office/coaching just isn't ready for primetime. We could also be thoughtfully making inquiries everywhere to set a smokescreen and to sow chaos.

Sure hope it's to sow chaos and that we really have a plan in place.

I have to admit this front office is scaring me . I don’t like none of these qbs they hold in high regard . None of them . I bet we wanna trade the 8th pick for him too huh 

Fritterer is keeping true to his "we will be in on every deal". Doesn't necessarily mean we will make an offer on Darnold

Why would you gauge interest on someone who isn’t good ? I’m cool with seeing what the market is but usually when you reach out you have some type of interest in having that guy on the team . Idk they seem desperate like i said a couple weeks ago. Rhule came in and said we gonna rebuild this gonna take a while. Now they all over the place tryna rush the process which one is it ?

This isn't the case but if they find out the Jets are wanting a 2nd for Darnold and they call the Eagles and find out they are wanting a 2nd for Wentz they can judge what the QB market is and they can use that as a base for what Watson/trading up for a QB is worth. Just helps them guage where the market is an what they might have to offer for someone they actually do want.

Long as they have a plan I’m on board . Just seem like last year plan got scraped a lil too fast for me . I hope they prove me wrong i don’t mind being wrong .

    • I mean, poster also said Young or Mahomes, it would have made no difference.  If there was way to actually test that hypothetical, I would sell every belonging I have and wager that Mahomes would indeed yield different results.  Mahomes automatically changes the D coverages.  He automatically changes the threats.  He attacks and threatens a field different vastly different.   We have seen good QBs and great QBs play behind horrific OLs in a single season....and they don't default into being the worst team in the NFL.  Frank Reich was old, stubborn and not creative enough to deal with an anomaly QB like Bryce.  The best QB in the NFL wouldn't be handicapping Frank, they would be enhancing Frank.  Starting week 1, Frank didn't even trust Bryce with basics....Frank gave him I what I feel comfortable with you being able to do offense.  Which took throws and plays off the table because Bryce couldn't do early on what a bad vet in Dalton could.  Mahomes would not yield the same results. 
    • All I have to say to this really, is it sounds nice and downgrades Stroud to make Young look better is more like what this take does. Look at the WR numbers the year before and then the year with Stroud. He made them better, not the other way around. That’s my opinion. I appreciate you designating that it was yours. Many state these things as facts.
    • but what if.....and here me out....the pro Bryce Young stuff was coming from people under Fitterer.  You know, the people who are employed to feed him that input.  And they happen to all still be employed here.  when Rhule was fired I desperately wanted Fitterer fired.  It set things up for Fitterer to be the sacrificial lamb the next time things went poorly....every time we move on from a disaster, we are retaining a heavy % of the folks who helped bring the disaster we are "moving on from".  Everyone argued Fitterer probably could be great and it was all Rhule.  We are just repeating the same stuff to a degree IMO.   Panthers needed a clean slate post Rhule era.  Needed another post Frank era.  Things were just too bad or too dysfunctional IMO to be salvaging so much.   We keep failing to do that.
