His extension has hit a halt and I just don't think it's out of the picture for Baltimore.  I know he's their dude and former MVP, but is he worth the extension they'd be willing to give?

If everyone is on the table for a given price and we are really in on every deal, I'm calling them to see what their price is.  We have the moolah now to give any QB a huge freaking contract and pieces I can frankly see Baltimore coveting on our defense.  

Rivera tried that and ended up with Carson Wentz.

Regarding Darnold, he is in fact a negative asset.  But we pay him if we want to play him or not so wanted his contract off the books for this season tells me we're still positioning for something interesting.  I have no clue, could very well be Jimmy or Baker but I'd love to think it's something out of left field.

you still have hope?

Im living on the edge......I got weak during the Ian Thomas signing....took 24 to restore the little I had. Rhule 3rd year magic, saints&falcons look weaker......Tom can not play forever, one day hes going to wake up and not have the juice or get a bad injury. 

Good-great signing new coaching staff(upgrades across) and overall 1st wave FA class improved the squad. More improving can take place....

Well if we did get it we would obviously do a new contract to lower that by quite a bit

We could definitely get them to listen but we would have to give up one of our young defensive players. No more sweetheart Bill O Brien deals unfortunately lol.

    • We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not.
