I wouldn't rule out Gardner Minshew as a possible third tier option. 1st tier being Deshaun Watson. 2nd tier being high 1st round draft pick. 3rd tier being everything else.

I know I am probably in the minority here but I think Minshew would do well here.  He reminds me a bit of Fitzpatrick.  I don't see him as a long term answer and he is still under contract with Jacksonville.  He's a former ECU Pirate and might enjoy coming back to the Carolina's in any fashion we use him.

You're not in the minority that Minshew has proven he can play in the NFL.

The problem you have is that he's proven he can play in the NFL. Jacksonville have him on a very cheap contract. They're not going to let him walk unless you throw significant Draft capital their way.

I’d give them #8 for Gardner and those two second rounders. If we did that and then flipped Teddy and Shaq to WFT for multiple mid round picks, we’d  be looking pretty good. In the very least, we’d have the capital to fill a lot of holes.

I agree with you but think he might have even more upside. Just looking at what Joe Brady did for Joe Burrow, why couldn’t he do the same for Minshew?

What do you consider significant? I’d be cool with us using our first round pick on a LT, second rounder on a corner and shipping our third rounder to Jacksonville for Minshew. If only Marty had picked him instead of Grier.

#8, #40 and 2022 second rounder for Gardner?

I have to say, it feels like the huddle is more united than we were in the fall. I would say it was closer to 50/50 for and against Teddy. Now it’s 99.5 percent against Teddy and two guys still jerking him off. 

I wouldn't even say many were 'against' him, we were just objective in expectations based on his past performance and things turned out a little worse than even that. Teddy can play in the NFL, just not as a starter outside of perfect conditions and even then the team's upside may be at risk with any injuries or unforeseen circumstances. If he can find that situation and a team willing to work around/tolerate his limitations then more power to all of them.

      Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds.

      Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.
