REPORT: Panthers have the inside track to trade for Baker Mayfield

Meanwhile, Robby trying to catch a football

Except that guy seems to actually give a fug that he's screwing up. Maybe his snapper was terrible, nevermind that the ball hit him right in the hands. It was kinda wobbly and didn't have the right spin on it. Totally not his fault. *Robby logic*

At this point I think he is being severely underrated. He set the rookie td record. Took over a garbage franchise and took them to the playoffs on his rookie deal. I like his fire. I’d be pissed if I played hurt and they pulled the Watson stuff too. He’s not gonna cost much. Take the LT, give up next to nothing for Mayfield, and see how big that chip is on his shoulder. Oh, and ship Robby somewhere else and TMJ can slide into #2.

I kinda like him too. More so than any QB's in this years draft. That being said I would prefer Jimmy Garoppogoat

He can be a good QB but I think his attitude is toxic and holding him back both on and off the field. Just too much smoke for there not to be some fire.

People forget what he did for the Browns in the 2020-21 season. He won them a playoff game. He had a 5TD game. Last offseason, he was viewed as a fringe top 10-12 QB in the NFL. This year, well he was hurt for a good part of the season and still played. He is not in the same league as Sam Darnold. This is the best the Panthers can do and I’m all for it.

This is the exact correct take. Take the LT. Give up no capital. Get Baker. Do or die for the current staff. If we don’t win then start over. 
 

If we do win then great. Sign Baker to a team friendly deal similar to what the Chiefs did with Smith and the Titans initially did with Tannehill….and draft the replacement.

    • Fair, sure.  Still not worthy of the #1 pick and still has major issues.  And you absolutely have to be concerned that for bryce to make a nfl caliber throw the conditions have to be optimal around him.  And those sacks around the 10 minute mark are just brutal to watch.
    • But his arm wasn't destroyed due to his throwing motion, it was from essentially two hits / injuries.  Tackle to prevent a pick 6 due to a lazy Benjamin route in 2016.  That was the start of having to be on a pitch count in practice.  2018 TJ Watt hit after Cam had already adjusted his mechanics and was having his best year statistically speaking, although I remember even that year questioning if he can still sling it deep. 
    • Arm elasticity and arm strength are not the same thing.  There are some who have great arm strength but can't deliver off platform throws, sidearm, etc,  due to lack of elasticity.  I am concerned about Bryce's arm strength to deliver the ball when the anticipation throws aren't there and you simply need to fire a ball into a tight window.  Not sure that can ever be part of this game.  He does have good arm elasticity which is what made him special in college, throwing the ball on the move, that should serve him well in the NFL especially when he gets outside of the pocket.  My biggest concern is standing in the pocket, pressure in the face and not being able to set his feet will affect him more than others due to his height and arm strength.
