This news is actually probably the best case scenario for our chances of landing Watson.  Gives him time to clear up his mess (or not), and gives us the rest of the season to see if Sam can figure it out.  As hard as I have been on Sam lately, he has SOMETHING.  If he can just put it all together he could be a decent QB.  Im not very confident that happens, BUT its possible.  Also, I think this puts us firmly back in the Watson sweepstakes. 

What is this something? I haven't seen it yet.

This time the year Baker went #1, absolutely nobody had him going #1 overall either.  Hell, if I recall correctly, nobody had him #1 until very close to draft day.  Its so early to even be talking who goes where, especially when there is no clear cut top guy like Lawrence in this years draft.

Inevitably, QB desperate teams will end up overdrafting from this weak crop. Happens every year.

It's funny that someone in another thread was talking about wanting another Jake Delhomme, well guess who Baker Mayfield's career stats look a lot like?

Baker Mayfield(53 games): 62.5% completion percentage, 241.8 Pass Yards/GM, 81 TD, 46 INT, 4.7 TD%, 2.7 INT%

Jake Delhomme(first 61 games as a Panther): 59.6% completion percentage, 218.5 Pass Yds/GM, 89 TD, 58 INT, 4.8 TD%, 3.1 INT%

I would love to have Baker here. Would obviously need an offensive line…

I am pretty sure (not 100% sure) they didn't have him as a late first round pick. And that is what any "big name" QB right not is projected as, at best.

Watch Watson get his legal troubles squared away in 2022 and then Caserio keeps overplaying his hand and doesn't get a deal done before the 2023 draft. 

The thing he isn't considering is that eventually Watson's stock is going to start to drop due to overall inactivity.

Yep, regardless of the reasons, a player that hasn't played in 2 years will have less value than a guy who didn't miss time. And I doubt his legal situation is 100% sorted out before the end of next season. The legal process takes longer than that.

This is just a civil matter(so far) so I don't think it drags on forever unless either party wants it to. If this all ends up being a simple money soak, perhaps so but I still think it is likely to get squared away next year.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.

      Official Panthers roster cuts thread

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.

      Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
