The sad part is that they can still get Minshew and he'd be a lot better than Darnold. Also cheaper. But they won't. It makes too much sense. Rhule is gonna hinder this team on his way out. Gonna give up that #6 for some washed up QB in a last ditch effort.

I don't remember Minshew being available.  I agree with the Sam being an irresponsible option.  In more ways than one.

He was available. The Eagles called the Jags and made it happen. We thought Sam and PJ were the ticket.

As painful as it is sure to be, we need to just ride it out with what we have in order to avoid damaging our future.  There don't appear to be any clear franchise QB's this year.  Don't waste that 6th pick on a guy who isn't going to be that guy.

Ride with what you have, fire the staff, clear out Sam and try again next year.

I've been telling you fools what the right move should be but you didn't want to hear it. Now you come around like you just figured it out. 

I've also told you that we are FUBAR from top to bottom.  Without a miracle of fortune intervening to make this mystery plan somehow manifest itself into a SB trophy next season that will not change. Where are you putting your money?

With the options available, I'd draft a mid round QB and acquire Foles and Flacco.

Give the bulk of the snaps to the rookie and have them compete with Foles and Flacco. Foles and Flacco are brought in knowing they are there to help develop a QB and provide healthy competition to accelerate their development.

At worst the mid round QB develops into a premier back up QB for a future franchise QB. Best case is that QB becomes the franchise QB and proves they can win in the clutch.

Sam Darnold and PJ Walker are not doing anything to advance the team. I'd go with Foles and Flacco over Darnold and Walker if all you want is an improvement.

    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
    • It is due diligence at that point. Irresponsible not to take him.  Crossing my fingers on this one, he has everything you look for except experience.
