I get why some didn't want Watson, but it's not a happy time.

The tweet said he waived his clause for Miami only.

Joe Person said the no-trade clause wasn't an impediment for a Panthers deal.

It means everything.  If Mr. Whip-It-Out had the gavel he'd have been traded long ago.

Good to know, I guess. It's something akin to a moral victory, and they don't mean poo.

In regards to who's calling the shots, It doesn't matter in regards to our situation. We're still fuged regardless. We do not have a franchise QB, regardless if Rhule still has faith (publicly, at least) in Darnold or not. Darnold is what he is: one who sees ghosts, but can't see the proper read.

Rhule knows PJ is even worse so he'll do what he can. Make no mistake, he isn't happy with Darnold... But we aren't getting a franchise qb mid season.

I hope this convinced them to stop fuging around with retreads.

Rhule already knew what PJ was though and he made no effort to look at another option because he didn't want to hurt Sam's feelings. That's the part that stings. We handcuffed ourselves for a QB who had yet to actually earn or prove anything in the NFL.

    • I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
