Carolina to active in veteran QB market...

[Rocky Davis]

It doesn't matter what QB they can bring in here until they fix the offensive line, until then I say don't waste any more money or draft capital and ride out Sam's 5th year.

QB Purgatory III: Return of the Free Agent Has Been

All of them are flawed--contracts, injury history, play, etc.  I think I would take Carr (being practical) if he were affordable.

Yeah, they’re all flawed.  Right now it’s probably best to ride with Darnold, as bad as he is, and work on OL.  With some luck we can improve our protection and go hard for a QB in 2023.  

[rippadonn]

DARNOLD IS A CERTIFIED BUST. I'd rather watch the Strong kid take his lumps OR since he is so raw, sit behind QB1 for two or so years while we develop him. NOBODY is going to pay good money to watch Sam Darnold. He's not iconic or entertaining.

 

[Michael G]

Bring in someone cheap to compete with Darnold. Preferably someone who doesn't turn the ball over and is relatively mobile (like T. Taylor maybe...). Draft O-Line prospects like they're cornerbacks and bring in (or draft) a FA RB to help pound the rock (a bigger downhill back who can pass protect). Give DJ more carries and CMAC more reps out wide or in the slot and design a clock-control offense with lots of wrinkles that utilize our skill players.

I'm not sure a rookie QB is what any HC wants in a must win year with a seat that on fire, especially when you are picking a developmental QB.

By that logic I expect them to take a player that they see as contributing over being a project so the need to value may be way off in their minds. Desperation usually doesn't lead to great decisions from people making poor decisions that led to the desperation. I will belive they can fix the oline when they do, I have serious reservations about believing they can. Getting rid of Elflein completely would be a good start in my eyes. 

No, I agree--but when the cap is factored in, the fact that we have 1 pick in the top 100, etc.  What is he going to do?  Free agency going after a starting QB--will he sell the farm--I see no QB worth the farm or the #6 pick---what is Rhule the Fuhle going to do?

[Your GFs favorite huddler]

Just build the lines and while accumulating as much 2023 draft capital as possible and trade up for your guy in next years draft. 
 

nobody is coming here

But how can I draft a QB if I don’t have every other position on the roster sorted out first?

One thing is for certain; whatever move Rhule makes will be the wrong one 

[LinvilleGorge]

This is the Rhule process. Sign afterthought vet QBs because no one else will I've you the time of day then after they predictably flop throw them under the bus, rinse, and repeat. It'll keep going for as long as Tepper allows it.

[Sean Payton's Vicodin]

They have to overpay to get someone to come here. You are literally risking your health playing behind Matt Rhule's shitty o-line. Not to mention, you lose out on marketing $$$ playing for a small market shitty team. 

[Sean Payton's Vicodin]

I just hope that they don't trade draft picks this time.

[Dory]

Pretty sure we'll roll into Week 1 with PJ, Sam, and Cam

[davos]

If they trade for or overpay for ANOTHER mid-career veteran never-was, I won't know what to say anymore. Like, how many times does reality need to keep smacking these bozos in the face?
