I wouldn't even worry about them driving up the price with fake offers.  Fitt is very connected to other FOs and agents, I'm pretty sure he has a solid idea of what's going on.  

The issue is, I don't think Tepper cares.  They've said he has wanted to put his mark on the team with his own guy since he got here, and I think he'll do anything to make that happen even if it goes against the advice of his FO.  He's a fuging idiot.

Tepper wants a superstar QB. Simple as. And we’re not gonna be settled until that happens.

The only thing that may make sense, and it would take Tepper being smart and shrewd....Give up a large amount for Watson, but not push the payment to future picks past this year and possibly next.

Get him here, maybe he misses 8 games, maybe 12, but this season is a throw away anyway.  Then get a good coach after Rhule is fired next offseason, when it's time to start trying to win.  The lawsuits and shame will be behind him.  He won't have a shortage of fans in the Carolina's.

I don't think this is the plan, but it's the only thing that would make this make sense.

I don't think there's any way you get the Texans to agree to something like that.

I don't think so either, but it's the only way that I would be interested.

This years 1st and 3rd, and two quality starters may get them somewhat interested...but who knows? 

 

I don't want us to do it, but sounds like we are hell bent.

Don't have a third (traded for CJ Henderson)

Seattle has a ton to offer the Texans now and they are in need of a QB.

 

Carolina is also still mentioned every single time Watson is brought up.

 

Should be a bit more clarity on his situation after his court date on Friday 

If I was a betting man my money would be on Seattle.

I'm a fan of Rhule, obviously, and I haven't given up on him and the Panthers yet. I'm willing to give him all the excuses about covid and all the BS he's had to deal with as a new NFL coach in that situation coupled with the horrible state the team was in when he arrived etc.

But I will admit, right here, right now, that I will be deeply disappointed if we trade our future away for Watson right now. Not even counting judging Watson based on these accusations but even from the football perspective of it. This move makes zero sense to me. Signing a player that will take away our cap space and not allowing us this opportunity to add some decent FAs plus our future first round picks? I just can't believe Rhule would go that route.

Then adding to it the character concerns when Rhule is always speaking about culture? Honestly, that move would remove most of the reasons I'm willing to take the abuse I've sometimes received for defending him. I may have unpopular opinions and some of you may not like me but I do strongly believe in the principles that Rhule expresses which is why I like him. This would contradict all of that imo and I'd lose respect for him and I'd have to change not only my tune but my name. 

I just can't believe this is true. This story comes out every 3 months or so and nothing happens so I'm hoping this is just journalistic smoke and mirrors like usual. 

(I added paragraphs this time free of charge)

 

Takes a lot of balls to support crap. Rhule is crap. He is a terrible NFL coach. Can’t wait till he is gone.

      1 shot 1 goal tracker

      It’s becoming absolutely ludicrous this year that the hurricanes are allowing the first shot to go in. However, might as well have fun with it. That was the sixth time this year the hurricanes have allowed the first shot to go in on goal.  2nd time in 3 games haha     6

      I agree. Their schedule had two top teams and they lost both games. The crying about it has reached ridiculous levels. ND is just so use to getting their way and forcing inclusion based on ratings. They (fans) even had the gall to complain about Miami losing to SMU and Louisville even though both spent time in the top 25 (not just preseason) as if they were horrible teams yet ND made it last year losing to a legitimately bad team in Northern Illinois. I laugh at people like Vic Lombardi saying it’s wonderful that ND called a wambulance to announce they’d skip a bowl game as if that should earn them respect. They just did that to avoid a potential embarrassing loss after all the crying.

      I don't think he'll every really contribute... That knee popping again will always be in the back of his mind and he may run tentatively because of it. Hes been out of football for 2 years. I'm all in favor of signing Rico...its the smart thing to do, so don't expect it.
