I don't believe this is true, but I just had a thought. Maybe Panthers were playing 4D chess the whole time. Met with Deshaun, agreed to bring him over but kept it under wraps, had Deshaun reach out to Falcons and express interest in heading home, get both the Falcons and Saints to mess up their preexisting plans, causing Falcons to either trade or alienate their QB, have Saints fail to extend TA, and after the damage is done just say "Carolina is my team". I mean, that would be absolutely legendary if they were able to do that, as well as low-ball the Texans by only negotiating with teams that can't put together good packages, meaning our trade offer may not be as generous as we thought!

All depends.  Who the QBs is and what the state of the Panthers are IMO. 

Right now we have weak coaching that is on the hotseat.    One that was suppose to be building this team from the ground up.  Change in coach next year only restarts that to a large degree.   Doesn't sound like the best time to be trading away your draft captial for the next several years. 

I was willing to say fug it all and endorse the big gamble pre scandal.  Because Watson is great.  I mean, I know that just as much as anyone here.   

but I think there is just the reality you now have to factor in the future lawsuits and all that happened in regards to Watson.   That makes a big gamble and even bigger one.   Plus, regardless, I think we now have to simply question some aspects of Watson.  Best case scearnio with his scandal is that Watson is a horrific decision maker in life.  Not really the ideal quality you look for in such a massive investment.  He also literally signed that massive deal with Hou and then demanded out.  Again, Hou was Hou.  Not like he signed that and something changed.    Even if it were true he was  100% framed by women all those women...it has highlighted some caution flags about a massive investment in him. 

I think drafting a QB made the most sense for Carolina.  And they probably should wait until after this draft and let our new HC do it.  I pretty much have accepted the fact the Matt Rhule era will be a black hole in Carolina's history we will all wish never happened and just have to accept that. 

 

Nothing is gonna happen to watson with these lawsuits. He’ll get a slap on the wrist suspension, write a check and that’s it. That’s the real reality of the world we live in.

      Joe Person: Panthers will let Cade Mays test the free agent market

      By PanthersNCSU · Posted

      If Mays has a market, which it seems he will, he's gone.  I think we bring back Nijman for too much money to be cautious at LT, Corbett comes back cheap since he's already said he wants to live in CLT, and Christensen eventually gets re-signed with the hopes he can be depth at some point.  Draft an OT, draft a C. The OL might be rough for stretches next year, but time to get some youth there to prepare for Bryce in 2027 or the next QB. I still think we compete for the division in 2026 and can go back to the playoffs unlike the oddsmakers in Vegas, but the *real* year is 2027 IMO. Either Bryce has proven it and he's the QB looking at his 2nd contract, or we have the ready-made team for the next rookie QB or Vet we trade for.

      Joe Person: Panthers will let Cade Mays test the free agent market

      By Leeroy Jenkins Ph.D. · Posted

      The Panthers are going to have a lot more flexibility in free agency than it looks like at first glance. On paper, the cap space might seem tight, but there are several obvious restructure candidates that could easily free up significant room. Between converting base salaries into signing bonuses and spreading cap hits out over future years, Carolina could realistically clear $60–80 million in additional space if they wanted to be aggressive. That kind of flexibility means they’re not stuck. They can extend key young pieces, add help along the offensive line, upgrade the defense, and still be strategic about value signings. Letting Cade Mays test the market makes sense from a leverage standpoint. If he’s willing to come back on a team-friendly deal, great, continuity on the line matters. But if his market price climbs, the Panthers should absolutely explore upgrades. The point is, this front office isn’t boxed in. With cap maneuvering and smart structuring, they have the ability to be active players in free agency rather than sitting on the sidelines like we are used too.
