NO goes from Brees, in cap hell, but figures out how to get Watson. Panthers have Darnold and maybe a resigned broken down Cam...that stadium will be empty next year. 

Stop it. Failed narrative. The guy came back like a friggin' bull and from what he did last season, coming off his couch mind you, he deserves the job.

I don't understand people doubting QB1 with the stellar career he's had college and pro's. You should be pulling for Cam. I forgot people hated on Jake even before TommyJane so, carry on.

They already met with him last night. If falcons don’t trade Ryan by 4 it’s over for them which leaves us vs the saints.   I think this gets wrapped up today or tomorrow. Tomorrow should really be the final day if it’s the two left.

so they met LAST NIGHT for the second time?  Was not sure the meeting had gone down yet.  Trying to get work done and keep up.  I could do it, were it not for that damn Garry Cobb fella.

I would have rather the Panthers never pursued Watson at all. 

Tepper took down the statue of Jerry Richardson and made it a primetime news event.

Then he turns around and outwardly simps for an accused sexual predator for over a year only to be rejected.

Have some freaking conviction to your moral character dude.

Watson’s career record is 28 and 25. You have to have the pieces around you, by merely acquiring him you are making it more difficult. We are not as ready as the Rams were when they traded for Stafford. Build the team through the draft and smart acquisitions. It remains to be seen if his image can be rehabilitated enough to be the face of a franchise.

Cool.. I'm excited to have a team and a chance for something to happen.. Even if we don't get Watson.. I still like the roster and can see improvement with better more experienced coaching..

It won't happen. 5 wins on deck. QB situation is still garbage. You can't win well without a good QB.

    • I have considered free agency.  LT?  Either not good enough or too expensive.  Besides, this is a good OT draft.  (I would rather have a free agent, mind you, but the Panthers' reality suggests we can't do it without neglecting other positions).  What LTs are available in free agency, and what do you expect to pay?  Any Ickey-level OT is going to cost over $20m.   How much do we already have invested in our OL?  I get your point, but I do not think you can spend over $100m per on your OL. We have 2 guards and a right T who pull in about $75m per season.  We don't have a center yet.  Teams just don't let good LTs hit free agency, and when one does on rare occasion, he is expensive.  If you want a third of the Panther cap going to 5 Offensive Linemen, free agency is the way to go.  We still need S, ILB, Edge, WR, etc. I think we'd need more than Nijman--and I would understand if we went free agent for a T--but that is putting a TON of your cap at OL--so considering our situation, I do not see that option as preferable.  You may disagree. If I was not talking LT on our line and thinking about the cap, I would agree 100%.  
    • Will be interesting to see how they come out tonight. The Boston game seemed to open the flood gates of media attention. And it’s not just that they’re playing well, in some instances they are getting compared with all time greats. This is still a young team, and it would be easy for an immature team to lose some focus, buy into their own hype, and think they can coast bit. The Heat are a middle of the road team without their leading scorer. There is no big dragon to slay, no big statement to make. I think we’ll learn a lot tonight: are they young but mature, or do they still have a ways to go mentally?
    • Panthers North for the win. Good luck to him. Great guy, hated to see him leave here, but he's about to work with the best QB he's ever worked with (at least on a regular basis).
