You guys are thinking short term. If we trade for Watson we're talking about a franchise top 5 guy for the next 10+ years. it will be worth it. We aren't giving away 10+ years of draft capital lmao.

It'd take about five of those ten years at least to be able to build anything, and that's assuming he doesn't get hurt behind the sh-tty O-lines we'd be trotting him out behind before that.

It's just not realistic.

With the roster we have now, the offensive line we have now, the cap room we have now, the head coach we have now and what we'd have to give up to get him, this notion is pure fantasy.

This isn't Madden.

Have u seen what our cap will be next year. I mean does nobody think before they talk anymore?

If u get a franchise qb what do u expect, damn they don’t for 20 mil no more. For a top 10 qb u going to pay 35 -50 mil a year!

We were expecting this year to have loads of cap space too, and we did before free agency and dead cap took it away.

Now, we have a head coach who's desperate to save his job and has full power to do whatever he wants.

If you think we're likely to go into next season with anything close to the cap (or draft capital) we have now, I have some bad news for you.

While that is true, you're thinking as if Watson will stay here the entire time. He didn't exactly like Houston.

I will say this, IF we trade for Watson there are two potential outcomes, and I see both as a positive. This of course assuming we make sure that the legal stuff is taken care of first.

1 - Panthers immediately have the best QB in the NFCS and it isn't close. This immediately puts us at the top of tge division and into the playoffs yearly.

2 - Panthers immediately have the best QB in the NFCS and it isn't close. Therefore Tepper will expect an immediate winner as mentioned in scenario one. Panthers fall short of this in 2022 finally opening Teppers eyes that Rhule is horrible, and fires him. Panthers having a legit QB attracts a good coach finally. We see a competent 2023 team and build from there.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
