Seattle reportedly lost out to the Colts for Matt's services.

There are several teams now looking for veteran QBs.

Interesting times.

Wait! Is it official? Can we still swoop in and get something done behind the scenes? I hear we're trying 🤪

One more QB domino off the board. 

Winston to the Saints I would assume? Mariota to ATL picking up steam...

Really only leaves us and Seattle for Baker Mayfield/Jimmy G. 

The less suitors there are the cheaper thjs trade gets. Wanted two seconds for Jimmy G? A 3rd for Baker? Here's a future 5th. Better yet, why don't you send me a 4th and the QB for a future 5th since we're eating the salary and the dead cap means you cant release them...

Make that trade and have another team who want to trade ahead of ATL and Seattle for a qb? We'll take this years 1,2 and a future 1 to make it happen. 

PLENTY of options available and this only helps the Panthers. 

Also, Matty Ice - GET THE fug OFF MY FIELD!!

With all the activity so far by the Panthers, I don't see them standing pat with the QBs currently on the roster.  I also can't see Rhule taking a chance on any of these QBs in the draft saving his bacon.   Has Tepper already given assurances to Matt that this won't be a make or break season?  That seems unlikely.

The coaching staff can't have much confidence in Darnold at this point, can they?

So, chances seem good that the Panthers are going to find another vet QB to add to the roster.

I'm honestly not a huge fan of drafting a quarterback this year, but I'm also not that big on any of the free agent or trade possibilities.

Not a good year to need a quarterback, I guess.

    • I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best 
    • I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.
    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
