Any speculations about Fitterer and who might be cut that could upgrade the backup QB spot?  Hunches?  Curious, weird feelings?  Predictions?  (Get the idea?)

Or

Do you think we stay put and ride the wave on the hopes that our OL keeps Darnold upright?

I think we may be looking for someone during camp cuts. The loss of Walker and/or Grier won't be hard to recover from. There's going to be a smart young kid  that ends up on the wrong side of some team's math and hopefully we'll grab him.

Walker and Grier offer us nothing either as relief pitchers or for the future.

PJ Walker would be a fine QB backing up a stud QB, say if the team traded for Watson. He has legs to move the offense and enough of an arm to test teams deep. He's not a long term answer but he's a guy that can at least come in and make a few plays. Will Grier obviously is a bust and will probably transition to selling real estate or something. Panthers QB situation might be one of the worst in the NFL.

lol I'm not making this a Watson thread, just saying that's the kind of backup PJ Walker is. The kind that you probably never want seeing the field but if he had to come in for a few plays, he could move the offense for a few drives. If he's starting for you, your team is done.

IMO, it is going to take some kind of trade to get someone that can knock PJ out. Rhule loves him. He won't be replaced by some teams castoff. A QB good enough to overtake PJ is just not going to get cut.

 

In regards to PJ. We have what we have.

 

Now Grier?  He's just lucky to still be drawing a check.

I don't think anyone is going to cut a QB that's an acceptable backup.

We'd have to trade for someone.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
