This is so dumb. If anything you address a need from a pool of worth it at X pick in the first, and go hard BPA the rest of the draft to find talent. Rhule must think he can coach up anyone.

Way to say what Rhule meant but try to prop yourself up in the meantime.

Confirmed -- Rhule said the 5th year option has NOT been picked up yet, May 3rd is the deadline, that is BIG news!!

Allows them to take a QB, and only have Sam at his cost of 4M ish for just this season if the draft falls our way. 

If/when we cut Teddy, we would actually save money this year. If the right QB falls to #8, we don't pick it up, and he has $0 guaranteed, and a QB battle going on in camp.

He made a definitive statement. Much like the statements he made on the run up to panic trading for Darnold as option D after telling the entire league they wanted Bridgewater out.

You mean like the 49ers made it no secret all off season they wanted to upgrade from Jimmy G?

Or are you just gonna keep bending quotes and ignoring happenings around the leauge to fit your angry narritive.

Kinda sucks to give up a second if ur not sure about him?

Stockpile, stockpile, stockpile and eventually you have a winner.  It's like going dove hunting with a single shot round versus a scattershot round.  We went all in last year on Teddy and it backfired.  The team learned their lesson. We are not going all in on Sam.  Even if we don't draft a QB, expect us to bring in real competition for Darnold unless they are unable to move Teddy.  Grier or Walker will be holding a clipboard all season or end up elsewhere, possibly even both are out of Charlotte by the beginning of the season.

Or the patriots making it clear they’d like another option other than Cam.

Or Denver wanting to move off what’s his face.

I would add to the Darnold critics  excited about the fifth year option answer and thinking it means something, you probably shouldn't be.

Rhule didn't say that they won't, only that they hadn't yet.

There was talk they might try to rework his contract to split the difference over two years, so there may just be some finagling before it's official.

    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.  
    • Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
    • The changes to onside kicks were ridiculous and ruined a significant part of the game     It was already a high risk low reward play.  Why change it?
