I don't know how many games Darnold can win.  Minshew can win more, most likely.  Baker may be in there somewhere.  But I also am not sold on any of the QBs in the draft this year winning any more, either.  The whole group looks like a bunch of solid 3rd round picks, except of course we don't have a third round pick (at least yet).

To those who think a shiny new QB can overcome anything, how did Mahomes do when his OL was depleted in the Super Bowl against Tampa?  Brady has a history of looking very pedestrian when his OL has been consistently outplayed by a pass rush that did not require selling out the coverage (think two Super Bowl losses against the Giants, and for that matter the game NE won over the Rams 13-3).  You have to give any QB a fighting chance. 

Our OL has looked depleted or outplayed almost every game, and while they look better on paper after FA, we still have no idea whether the LT position is settled or not (thanks to them not playing BC there nearly enough to know).

I wonder what the situation was with Joe Brady and Sam.  Brady isn't in Panthers Confidential at all.  Phil Snow is, but not Brady.  Even in the meeting discussing getting Sam, Brady is not there.  Rhule said that the idea for Sam came from Snow, not Brady.  Brady didn't even go to the senior bowl.    Maybe Brady was against the Sam trade.  His comments early on "I have something with Sam Darnold" and "he's growing from his experiences". 

Mac is an upgrade here, because he seems to have an eye for this stuff and Rhule is going to listen to him more than Brady.

Maybe there’s more that we don’t know about Brady’s work at Panthers. The best outcome for us is the new OC to make a big difference for Sam to take the next big step.  Then we can stop hunting for the next franchise QB.  Getting a OT from the draft makes the most sense.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
