They have plenty of cap space and it's a 1 year deal for a high quality backup, plus they still get a pick, why not?

Not that I am saying it will happen. Makes more sense for us to send a third and then trade TB for a 5th or whatever we can get for him to DEN, NO, ETC

I don't believe this will happen prior to the draft.  They may be making a backup plan to the draft.  Or maybe regardless of the draft, if we can cut Teddy. 

I'm also not one that believes Darnold is toast. 

Very few QBs throw to the wolves make it. 

He's young, and still a talent. Therenis potential there. I wouldn't want to give up a pick higher then a 4th this year. A conditional next year is better. 

He'd be coming into a pretty good situation here, and it wouldn't stop us from pursuing another QB if he doesn't work out.

I would be all for trading for Darnold. Preferably, for no more than a third. That way we could get 2 OL in the first two picks and draft a WR or 2 later on. Would love some combo of Newsome, Darden, and Schwartz, or one of those with a versatile RB. Sprinkle in one or 2 DBs like Trill, Ford, Mukuamu, Shakur, or Hamlin (if we don’t address it via FA), and I’d call that a very successful draft.

Option 1 - He becomes good away from Gase and NY, we have a QB

Option 2 - He's decent enough that someone signs him to a big contract in FA even if he's not "our guy", we get probably a 3rd round comp pick which is essentially what we give up this year to trade for him. 

Option 3 - He's terrible, he becomes our new Clausen and leads us to the promised land of a Top 3 pick

 

I don't think anybody wants Option 3, but this is what you get when we decided to screw the rebuild up by signing Teddy to make us averagely bad.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By strato · Posted

      Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By 45catfan · Posted

      I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
