I would take Minshew over Darnold, or Jimmy G but I would not pay a high price for Minshew. Problem is we have a ton tied up in Darnold this year and I have a bad feeling he isn't even able to be traded because absolutely nobody is going to want him based upon his tape which makes me think we are stuck with and rolling with Sam. If it were me, I would take Minshew on a simple trade where we don't give much of anything for him at all and have him with Darnold backing him up for a season till we can find a future QB to draft and get rid of Darnold after this season. Minshew has proven he can be a decent backup I think and then it gives him a year or two if we draft a rookie to play and prove he could actually be a starter. I don't think Minshew would light the world on fire but seems to be best of what we could have this year because I am not sold on any of the QB's being worth the 6th pick and believe we should wait til next season to move on a top QB in the draft.

I think that the entire Minshew option can be summed up in one statement.

If you think that he is gonna take you to the promised land then you get him. If he’s not gonna take the Panthers to the Super Bowl then don’t do it.

I don’t understand the concept of getting a middling quarterback when the Panthers already have one.

To be fair, Darnold isn't even middling.

He's the worst starting QB in the NFL.

Minshew has shown far and away more competency as a QB than Darnold ever has. 

Minshew would be an upgrade and he would be relatively cheap in terms of compensation. 

Because of said cheap compensation, it would not deter us from addressing the position in the draft either this or next year if he shits the bed.

Well, we all make since (intentional).  Personally, I don't worry about grammar, but I do try not to sound like a drunk foreign exchange student from an impoverished Eastern Block country.   

I like trying to sound that way myself.  It confuses the trolls so it has its advantages.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By dep · Posted

      Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4

      The ickey ekwonu question...

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.

      Evero and the pass rush

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
