I am guessing we move back in the draft at some point (probably round 1) and get the other 2 picks (2022) covered. 

Man, I need to crank out another mock now we another pick! A second selection at corner or picking a third O-lineman. 🙂

Cool story bro

Best part of the next season is dumb fugs like you can't go "NOOOO HURNEEYYYY WHYYYYY" for every loss the Panthers have. You'll have to either find another scapegoat (most likely because you're fuging stupid, and have a hard time thinking for yourself) or actually have an informed opinion.

My optimistic trade back plan...

 

Panthers get: Stephon Gilmore / #46 / 2022 2nd rounder

Patriots get: #8 (QB)

then....

Panthers get: #41 / #72

Lions get: Stephon Gilmore / #113 / #222

 

Panthers would be trading #8, a 4th, and a 6th for #15, two 2nds, a 3rd, and a 2022 2nd.

Now someone tell me we can possibly manipulate the Lions and Patriots like that instead of them making the deal themselves. Ha

I wasn't reading 22 pages to see if this had been mentioned, but this is a HIGH 6th rounder for Teddy.  We lost a comp pick 6th for Darnold.  This is essentially like a comp 5th rounder as only 6 teams pick ahead of us at the top of the round compared to next to last in the comp section of the round.  It's a difference of like 35 selections, which is equivalent to an entire round.

Two weeks ago the Huddle said Teddy’s contract was untradeable. We got something for Teddy, this is a win. 

FIFY.  I wasn't one of them, by the way, and I have the receipts to prove it.  While Teddy failed our expectations, he is a legit backup.  Chances were if we let him go for peanuts, someone would bite.  Denver was the likely choice and they made it happen.

It was great we got a return, but Breer was right to a degree. We had to eat most of the contract for this to work.

His contract WAS untradeable - Teddy had to restructure/adjust compensation by cancelling the 3rd year and Carolina still had to eat money to make it happen.

Guess what?  A re-work was always an option and had been discussed in that thread several times, but people just thought Teddy sucked too bad to be traded.  It wasn't the contract, but their personal bias about Teddy that they thought made him untradedable.  Contracts are not set in stone.

Point being, Teddy is gone and the contract wasn't a major obstacle.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
