Sigh…what would you suggest we do right now?  Pretty simple stuff…but I am trying to get you there

Take the best left tackle at 6.  Make rhule run it back with darnold for next season.  Especially since he talked him up and gave up draft capital for him.   If that doesn’t work fire rhule hire a new guy and draft a new qb in the first so they come up together.  This isn’t rocket science.

Oh, I can think of plenty.

Nah.  It’s simple.  We aren’t giving up draft capital for a hurt qb on a 1 year deal when we have darnold eating a cool 18 mill.    If in the unlikely event he gets cut we are not giving jimmy g a multi year deal to come here.  
 

 

in closing jimmy g isn’t coming to Charlotte

You're not factoring in a desperate coach and an owner desperate for NFL caliber QB play. You seem to be expecting the Panthers to suddenly start making rational moves at QB. I don't.

So if Neal, Cross and Ikey are gone what then?  You are not as smart a person as Matt Rhule so I will leave coaching to him.  Easy to sit behind a computer and question everyone when you aren’t vested.

With their stated and historic aversion to drafting QBs, why wouldn't they offer a multi-year deal?  They essentially gave Darnold a 2 year by picking up his 5th year.

They have gotten burned on teddy and darnold.  They have to have learned their lesson by now.  Third time the charm and all

I think (hope) by getting burned 2 years in a row that they will pump the brakes a bit.  Plus he is hurt.

They might reach…the media is totally expecting this.  If we don’t we have to give Fitty credit.  I think Fitty knows talent…he just needs time.

    • If Mays has a market, which it seems he will, he's gone.  I think we bring back Nijman for too much money to be cautious at LT, Corbett comes back cheap since he's already said he wants to live in CLT, and Christensen eventually gets re-signed with the hopes he can be depth at some point.  Draft an OT, draft a C. The OL might be rough for stretches next year, but time to get some youth there to prepare for Bryce in 2027 or the next QB. I still think we compete for the division in 2026 and can go back to the playoffs unlike the oddsmakers in Vegas, but the *real* year is 2027 IMO. Either Bryce has proven it and he's the QB looking at his 2nd contract, or we have the ready-made team for the next rookie QB or Vet we trade for. 
    • The Panthers are going to have a lot more flexibility in free agency than it looks like at first glance. On paper, the cap space might seem tight, but there are several obvious restructure candidates that could easily free up significant room. Between converting base salaries into signing bonuses and spreading cap hits out over future years, Carolina could realistically clear $60–80 million in additional space if they wanted to be aggressive. That kind of flexibility means they’re not stuck. They can extend key young pieces, add help along the offensive line, upgrade the defense, and still be strategic about value signings. Letting Cade Mays test the market makes sense from a leverage standpoint. If he’s willing to come back on a team-friendly deal, great, continuity on the line matters. But if his market price climbs, the Panthers should absolutely explore upgrades. The point is, this front office isn’t boxed in. With cap maneuvering and smart structuring, they have the ability to be active players in free agency rather than sitting on the sidelines like we are used too.
