We have been for months.

That smoke is coming from just Joe Persons tweet it's the same smoke not too much smoke.

And why would they tell Joe Person anything at all not just about the #8 pick. If anything you'd want the Dolphins to just think it's them so they can undercut their picks instead of knowing that the Panthers are in a bidding war. Makes no sense.

Again it’s not just person. This has been reported by many outlets including people on this forum who have sources. These things leak out and the fact Person is reporting on it shows the org wants it to come out. People like Joe are just a different arm of the panthers org. This also prepares fans that this might go down.

if I had to bet everything I have id say Watson is gonna be a panther by the deadlone. We are in a terrible spot. 4 losing seasons in a row with Tepper. two bust qbs, and this org is not afraid to make splashes and trades. It just feels like it’s gonna happen.

Me too.  I feel like Tepper is the type of guy who does not take embarrassment and failure lightly.  He has a very big ego and very high expectations for his assets.  The Panthers are his most public asset, and they are currently an embarrassment....specifically at the QB position.  Also, I think Watson would likely already be a Panther if it were not for his issues.  The only way I don't see it happening is if Watson just says "I will only accept a trade to Miami".

What is your feeling on this Watson deal?

Not going to lie... after sleeping on it... I want it to happen. I know that will rub people the wrong way, but finding a true elite franchise QB is the toughest thing to do in the NFL as a front office. The Watson requesting for a trade situation is unprecedented, and there really isnt a "fair price" 

I want no part of Deshaun Watson.

Used to at least...not my prerogative but when Cam went so did some of those sources but its on them if they wanna carry on.

Wouldn't surprise me if Tepper billionared himself on down to Rhules office and just gave him a look and they already knew what time it was.

    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
    • Bro I don't mind debating you, but did you really have to write all that to get your point across.   This isn't Madden. If you have the #1 pick you literally control your own destiny. If nobody wants to trade which I have a hard time believing they won't then you obviously take the best QB.   I think we will have suitors. If that's Madden then so be it.
