Florio: Panthers understand they have to give up 3 firsts, another pick, and 1-2 (Chinn, Burns, Brown, Horn)

We aren't bidding against ourselves. If you think there aren't going to be a number of teams wanting to trade for Watson, you're kidding yourself. Two of them are in our division. 

 

And don't give me salary cap crap.. We all know that's a myth and there's ways around it

If you were trading for either, you're only actually retaining them both for 3-4 years. That's it. Anything past that isn't given. In that situation, the guy who actually has accomplished something in the NFL,is more valuable. Even if he's older.

Wilson is not more valuable. Laughable. And why are you "only retaining them both for 3-4 years?" How many good QBs truly hit free agency in their prime? Cousins is the only one that immediately comes to mind in the last 20 years.

Sure we are. Other teams have already sniffed around balked at the price and peace'd out. Denver was one of them. Miami seemed to be the most likely destination then they called it quits. All we have now are rumors of teams that might have interest which is just more smoke and mirrors. Do not give this regime too much credit after the Darnold fiasco.

Yeah OK. We're the only team interested in a top 5 quarterback. Clueless

If you trust Twitter sources good luck with all that. Only a handful of media folks on there have real credibility. The rest are all just looking for clout they'll say anything hoping it sticks. Enjoy your morning big guy.

There are a lot of teams that will be interested in trading for him.

 

Saints, Bucs, Eagles, Colts, Seahawks, Steelers are definitely watching closely.    It won't be cheap and anybody thinking Panthers are the only team interested are blind.

 

All of the legal stuff aside, 3 1sts and 2 starters is way too much for a team that has so many holes even for a Top 5 QB.

Of course other teams are watching but unfortunately for us OUR front office was the only one dumb enough to give up what they did for Darnold and they drove up the price for him. Now they are even more desperate. We would be giving them far too much credit to believe they are not doing the same here for a far more established young talent.

I would give two firsts and a young starter. Thats it. Anything more and I am out. 

I'm on the same page with you, except I'll add another player and another draft pick. Two first rounders, a 2nd rounder, Brown, and Darnold. Call it a day.

      Veteran CB trying out for Panthers

      By frankw · Posted

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
