Both those teams have better, younger, cheaper QBs and better/more draft picks to offer. Our best chance at getting Deshaun was him refusing to play for Miami or NY

They have more draft capital but less capital overall. Depends how far we are willing to go.

or houston not wanting to trade him to an in conference opponent, or Tepper offering the farm

Or Deshaun doing his research and wanting to come play in Charlotte. We’ve got weapons galore, Joe Brady and Rhule. We’re an up and coming team, and having the chance to build something could appeal to him.

They have those QB's, but does Houston like either of those guys? Are either of those teams willing to be as aggressive as the Panthers? Is Houston willing to trade within the AFC, or do they prefer to an NFC team?

How can we build something if we have to trade away the next 3 drafts to get him?

Who cares what are u getting with some of those picks, it’s always an unknown. Deshaun is not an unknown and he is just going to be 25 this year. Damn do y’all just want to keep getting shitty qbs and being mediocre. I don’t care what it takes get him here. Tepper is fixing to finally show all y’all his brass balls!!!!!!

Next 3 drafts?  If you mean by tradi g the next (3) 1st rounders, then yes you can still build in rounds 2-7 and we have a good amount of cap space next year in free agency.

The Rams have not had a 1st round pick since selecting Goff 5 years ago, that is a really good team that has also played in a super bowl in that span.

Both those teams are also in position to draft those much better QBs coming out of college, allowing them to keep those draft picks for themselves

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
