Agreed. Both DW and the Texans need the Panthers offer as leverage

The Panthers trade offer probably contains the most assets. It could force the Saints to up their offer should it come down to the Panthers and Saints, should the Falcons not be able to move Matt Ryan. This is the best case scenario for the Panthers. They'll either land Watson like they want, or the Saints will have to pay more.

Being one of the VERY few on here that understand Watson is an elite QB ... but the deal would hurt the franchise ... I'm on pins and needles to post my animated gif for when the final bell rings on this. Hurry up, Watson.

This is where I am---I want a flashy young QB as much as any of you--but to become a bitch is not my desire.  They want to dip into our best talent on the roster and 4-5 top end draft picks--and many are OK with that, even if it means that a player who is destined to be suspended, carrying all that character baggage, and does not want to play here? 

Let's move on with some damn dignity

That must be inkisdry on twitter

I’m not sure, Bets is a Browns fan, inkisdry seems like if he has a source, it’s close to Watson. Bets also said it would be done yesterday, inikisdry has held on to Friday from his first post as “not2panic”

    • 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).
