Once Tepper opens this Pandora's Box there will be no closing it.

It will be Watson's team and Tepper will be dancing to his tune.

All the coaches will be walking around on eggshells for fear that they might displease Deshaun. 

This situation is reminiscent of when the Panthers OC was not permitted to talk to Steve Smith, only worse.  

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Jeff Davidson, wasn't it? 

But yeah...I hate saying 'slippery slope', but that's exactly what it is

I hope Tepper does give up the farm plus give full control to Watson.  That would be the final nail in the coffin of the Carolina Panthers.

That would be dumb as hell.

 

In other words I expect the current Panthers will do it.

If it were TB12, I could see it to an extent. Dude has 7 rings. Watson has a couple of 10 win seasons and coming off a 4-12 season. Slight difference.

Per Aaron Wilson's article 

The Panthers, sources say, wouldn’t be willing to trade Brian Burns or Jeremy Chinn. But other players that could be involved in a potential Watson deal are running back Christian McCaffrey, defensive tackle Derrick Brown, and wide receiver DJ Moore. 

I would definitely have no problem with this. Cmac and brown easily can go and i love them both. Moore would be a little harder to stomache.

If the only players we would have to give up are cmac and derrick brown thats a hell of deal to me.

I don’t want to lose DJ; I’m fine with anyone else and the picks don’t concern me. 
 

I do think Terrace Marshall Jr will be real good with a QB like Watson throwing him the ball

If Moore has 2nd rounder value or better to the Texans, then you move him in a deal like this to save draft capital. No doubt about it. I think he's a good WR, but do you really want to pay him $16-20M in AAV after this season?

This is the Vikings Herschel Walker trade disaster all over again.

Or the Saints with Ricky Williams...

[davos]

This type of major deal typically spurs a few more moves.  Could see us trading CMC, Robbie, and/or a few others.  Could be a much different team come Monday/Tues
