That's fair but I'd rather draft Howell on a rookie contract than move on Mayfield.

Agreed.  I'd rather take a swing at a rookie that's an unknown, than commit a bunch of money (and picks for a trade?) to a guy we know isn't good enough to be the dude in this league.  Rookie is almost a free shot minus the draft choice spent.

If we're going Mayfield, then you might as well just draft Sam Howell. I really think Sam Howell is being severely underrated in this draft. I have seen games since he freshman year that he would lead comeback drives or at minimum put his team in a position to win the game (ex. see FSU 2020 RB clear dropped a 4th down pass). Keeping it 100, he was the reason UNC was not total poo this year, without him, they get 3 wins at best. I say trade down, forget Pickett, draft Howell and use extra picks to get some linemen.

Where do you draft Howell and with what draft pick? He's not worth #6 overall and he'll be gone by pick #106 most likely.

...Mayfield has the tools and the talent to be really good in the right system... this might be a wakeup call for him to rededicate himself...no more ***** commercials and more film room.... he could be another Jake or Brees... or, turn into another squirrel QB...

General rule…if the Browns don’t want him I don’t want him

...yea...but we'll take 2 players from an even shtttier team and make them the two highest players on the roster... Mayfield is a gamble but want to see how he bounces back after his injury...he has heart.

Will command too much for us to take a look under the hood.

 

Can be a good player in the right scheme....I would like to see how he could do in a Payton/Brees system.

My guess would be really good.

That's actually a good point. Baker would probably do really well in NO if Payton was still coaching the team. I think he can be a viable starter for some team in the NFL. We had a bad offense last year. I don't think too many QB's would have thrived in Carolina in 2021. Having a new OC, new OC coach, and new lineman is going to make us better. Any QB we put behind center is going to be better than the QB play from last season.

      Panthers possibly trading Thielen?

      By CPcavedweller · Posted

      I wouldn't be opposed to trading for Sanders and seeing if he could be developed here. We have zero plans, and I really don't think it would take Sanders long to produce more than Bryce has. Plus, he's on a 5th round rookie contract and if he became the guy, you instantly have three years to build a core of talent, much of which we already have.  I get flamed for this opinion but it is what it is, and I've been right about these type of things the past three years.  I said Nix would be a good NFL QB. Wanted to keep Darnold and trade down in 2023. Said QB play wasn't the QB's fault under Rhule, but rather the offensive design.  Give me Sanders in the room for a year with Bryce and Dalton, see what he can develop in to on the cheap. There are no really quality QB's coming out this year that aren't Allar or Manning, and Manning may not even be coming out.

      basically if the panthers trade Thielen they're not trying to win this year. I mean they're not going to regardless but this means its the plan not to.  no team is going into the season in 2025 with 80 career catches between their top 3 healthy WR.  you'd be turning this from a bottom 3rd of the league offense to like the nathan peterman bills pair that with a defense that is most likely going to struggle, and they're looking at 2001 again.
