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

Yeah I was thinking that. Baker would instantly be one of the more talented QBs the Panthers have had. I don’t think we are going to be able to unload Sam and his contract without giving up picks, so I’d just roll with him as the backup (if we acquire Baker). Maybe draft a project like Glass in the late rounds or sign undrafted and cut PJ. Baker with Sam as the backup and Glass as the 3rd/project/practice squad. Who knows maybe Darnold plays well enough to be a decent backup (although very overpriced) behind a better OL. 

Pure physical talent, I'd probably put him fourth behind Cam, Darnold, and Kerry Collins in that order.

Obviously, physical talent only gets you so far.

Good lord. It is literally a guy repeating speculation. 
Baker has already said he wants to go to the Seahawks.  

Wilson has largely been keeping the Seahawks afloat and barely relevant.  I doubt Mayfield can do that.  The Aints would be a better choice for Mayfield assuming they want and can afford him.

So... fix our Jets' trash problem with the Browns' trash? *Panthers' logic*

...we need to herd qbs in and out till we find one.... since the draft is total crap.... he might be viable...Browns haven't done much right since league re-establishment granted.... if the price is right...let not turn our back on someone who has skill above and beyond the slop thats out there or incoming....who you got?...i need a laugh.

Or you could do your research.  Draft a qb, develop him and build a team around him.  If we get baker it will be his 5th head coach and 5th OC.   That is not a recipe for success

Any free agent, capable starting QB we get right now is going to come with an asterisk. 

Murray*:  Tiny wants to get paid a lot.  Will ignore his contract and leverage his team for big bucks.  Not sure if his heart is in it like some others.  Is he a leader?

Baker*:  Beats women and lives in the stadium.  I am OK with living in the stadium, but if the "beating women" thing is true--nope.  A tool that is unliked by teammates.  Thinks he is above the common man--playing the victim.

Jimmy G*:  Needs a great D, great OL, great running game to be average.  If he were a cup, he would not be dishwasher safe and you would have to protect him in the cupboard with bubble wrap.  Only use when company comes over, and that makes you nervous. (Not a durable, dependable cup).  Always been with good organizations--can he handle Clowntown?

Brees and Jake are your counterpoints?  Well okay then.

Ah, the "let's go ahead and pickup Darnold's extension" mentality.

 

No….did you miss the whole “if he puts up 4000 yards and 30 TDs” part? And the answer is hell yes. What more do you want out of a QB than that?

    • I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.  
    • Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.
    • Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
