Panthers hold prelim talks with Mayfield reps

[CarolinaNCSU]

Baker makes us better, but still don't want him. 

Flip Darnold and a Day 3 pick for Baker and sure, why not. Trade a 2nd or 3rd rounder for him? Get fuged. 

[pantherj]

Baker doesn't have enough control over his passes. Too many of them are scattershot for him to be considered a good QB. I'd actually rather have another season to see if Darnold can improve than lost a 1st round pick for Barker who I 100% predict will be bad.

If we give up our 1st in 2023 then I can't watch this team anymore until Rhule is fired.

don't poo on Darnold like that

 

Thats our QB

[GPantherfan]

Mayfield is a franchise QB if we pull this off it will be the best case. 

[Move the Panthers to Raleigh]

Have we learned nothing! Just roll with Darnold and we get a new coach and draft high next year!

Would be nice to see the actual article, but I'm guessing the Browns are calling other teams, not the other way around considering one team wanted a pick to take Mayfield's cap hit on. Same way we'd have to send a pick with Darnold to get rid of him. 

 

Yeah, and we wanted Kurt Cousins too…lol

Yea at this point If you the title ‘qb’ next to your name and don’t have a solidified starting spot on a team next year, the media will say that the panthers have ‘had discussions’. 

that’s what happens when you try everything under the sun to acquire a new qb and do a horrible job at it. Fail safe article for media members these days.

I'd rather give Baker a try than Pickett or Willis.

Exactly. And Baker had 3 all-pro lineman in front of him

I would but then I would have to do all 4 years and it ain’t pretty 

Just for fun here's 3 QBRs the last 3 seasons.

A)

2018 - 61.8

2019 - 70.5

2020 - 63.7

B)

2018 - 51.2

2019 - 54.2

2020 - 65.5

C)

2018 -45.9

2019 - 45.6

2020 -32.9

 

Player A is Deshaun Watson, Player B is Baker Mayfield, Player C is Sam Darnold. 

 

Let me be clear, I am only driving this train based on the presumed low cost associated with a trade. If the Browns are wanting anything more than a future 4th/this years 5th I'm out.

Talent is there to take a flyer in a down year for the NFC and as sad as it is... Baker would be our best QB since 2017.

Let's just roll with Sam and keep our first round picks. Please don't give away our first round picks for QBs who are not going to pan out. We already have a mediocre QB in Sam. PLEASE don't trade our 1st round pick for Baker.

[Panthercougar68]

I had just hopped on the Willis train…don’t toy with me pleaseeeeee.

3rd rounder next year and you take Darnold…final offer

I think they've already signed Jacobi Brissett to be their backup.
