Would the Panthers sign Lamar Jackson if the Ravens dump him?

Interesting theory about cycling QB's. I mean I doubt it would ever happen but the theory is interesting. 

 

Some draft people say that you should draft a 1st round QB every year because the upside is so high and the risk is so low. Meaning you draft a 1st round QB, he stinks you can often still trade him for a #1 or high value pick. (See Sam Darnold, Josh Rosen, Carsen Wentz, as an example).

It seems like there's some real trouble brewing there. Especially after Jackson and Greg Roman started taking shots at each other.  Trading him would be one of the ballsiest moves in NFL history because he IS their entire offense.

I get the feeling that's more likely to end with Roman being let go than Jackson.

I will grant though, at some point Jackson needs to show that he can win a playoff game.

It's a radical thesis but the situation Bucky Brookes outlines as it goes to how the Ravens might handle Lamar Jackson is thought provoking...

If they really want to take the Army approach, then I’d take both of their first rounds so they can get Lance.

If they dump him they probably still get a comp pick out of the deal...

A 3rd round comp pick for a 24 year old MVP winning QB? Yikes. Nah, they'd trade him for a very significant haul.

The only reasons I'm saying they should consider it is 1) his heavy running style will likely eventually lead to injury issues and 2) his trend of poor playoff performances is becoming concerning.

I've been pushing this theory for a while now. I don't think any team is ready to take that leap just yet. It's why I believe we should not pass on Fields or Lance if they are there. 

There is a huge market inefficiency when it comes to qbs in the NFL. As it stands, having a starting qb on a rookie contract gives you an extra $15-25m in cap space for the rest of your team. 

As trade capital, no other position comes close. So why not draft a qb every year. Not necessarily 1st round, but maybe top 3. Rookie contracts last 4 years. If half of them end up being backup level, you can still recoup the cost trading them away. If even 25% end up above average, your will have 10-12 picks in every draft.

      Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"

      I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
