Don't let Minshew get away..

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.

    • Yeah this needs to happen ASAP. I don’t care if the price is lower. These Vikings fans on Twitter are absolutely insufferable. Acting like they have been world beaters for the last 60 years and thinking Carolina should just hand him over for nothing. We’ve had 7 or so tough seasons in a row and we have still been to two superbowls since they have and won more playoff games since 1995.    I hope Dan sends him to Detroit for a 2040 7th rounder and eats half the contract. Even Sheena is replying to them.
    • I hope your cath went well
    • So did the Panthers initiate this by making him "available for the right price" or was this something Thielen himself pushed for? I also never saw this quote he made about JJ McCarthy back in June. https://sports.yahoo.com/article/panthers-adam-thielen-both-asked-182711572.html Thielen believes McCarthy is built for big moments and will eventually show the world the skillset that won the Michigan Wolverines a national championship in 2023/2024. He even said McCarthy could be the “face of the league.” “I have high expectations for him. I've been able to be around a little bit through some of the time last summer... back in Minnesota, and I think he has the ability to be one of the great quarterbacks this season and the face of this league at some point. You know, I think he's got every tool and intangible that you can have,” Thielen said. “Obviously, it's a difficult league and it's not gonna just be easy, but I think he has the ability to handle adversity to be able to be big in big moments, as you saw when he was in college. I think he's got a great support staff around him, whether it be the coaches or the trainers.” Sounds like he's had one foot out the door for some time now.
