Baker for Sam

At this stage you have to let Rhule Live and Die with Sam Darnold

 

 

Most of the Huddle want both Sam and Rhule Gone, so why bring in another Quarterback to potentially save Rhules Job? If Sam is that bad why not roll the dice and let the Shitty season play out, and if both Rhule and Sam are as bad as the Huddle says they are they should be terrible next season, and both will be gone in 2023 as we draft a franchise Quarterback.

 

Bringing in Baker Mayfield is probably the most lateral move you can make. Bakers has had the luxury of having a better line, Running backs and Receivers than Sam his whole career and hasnt done jack shyt. If Baker is better than Sam it is by the slightest of margins and I mean slightest.

 

If you want both Rhule and Sam Gone by next year, playing Sam Makes the most sense. 

 

Are you willing to Trade for Baker or Jimmy have the team end up decent next season and no longer in position to draft a top tier QB? At the end of the day if we are to draft a franchise stud next season we have to suck one way or another. Sam is the best solution for that.

Who? Jimmy G's surgically repaired shoulder? Minshew aint it either. Cousins isn't coming here and all other QBs that are worth a damn have already cemented their futures. Nobody in the draft is going to be our starter either. Baker is the best available. 

If he's not a free agent I don't want him. No trades for anyone. Not this year.

That's the first issue.

Second issue is he's only arguably and nominally better. Being better than Sam isn't enough. Let's aim higher....or just deal with it and get a better draft pick next year.

ONLY straight up, no picks, salary or assets.  We take Baker they take Sam.  Hard to tell how much Baker is better since he was on teams WAY better than the jets and us last year.  Baker had pro-bowl OLmen and wide receivers and Chubb at RB.  Sam had Erving and Elflien's backups, and a 4th round rookie who couldn't catch a cold at RB...and that was the best team he's been on.  Oh wait, Sam did have Ian Thomas so, he had that going for him.

Jeff Howe said this regarding Mayfield...

The Browns are prepared to pay a portion of Mayfield’s $18.86 million salary to facilitate a deal, with the percentage of the contractual retainment relative to the trade compensation. That’ll be important with the Panthers also paying quarterback Sam Darnold’s $18.86 million fifth-year option.

I want the Panthers to be the best team they can be. If that means we get Baker Mayfield or anyone else that can make us a better team so be it. I fear that the objective of some fans is more to get Matt Rhule fired than it is for the Panthers to win. If we put a winning team on the field and Matt Rhule is still head coach I can live with that.

    • All true, Stafford and Mccvay were both talking about "retiring" during those future picks too, I member. In my computer when you make future trade, I feel you have to factor in the worst case or close to it from your side. The big issue for the panthers, maybe even now is that they have not proven they can draft well enough to trade. I know that Dan and company have not traded future picks and they seem to always want 7-8 picks overall. They like to trade 3 picks for 3 picks or 2 for 2.   It would have been great to flip BB for that haul and use those Rams picks instead of the first overall pick...... Verse wise, Jesus what a beast....... Garrett is the top dawg and all, but man this is rough for me. I also noticed this about the panthers they are pedo bears, they like dem young. So a 25 year old verse would have gotten gigged with the panthers. Even with NIL and 6th year, and even coofus fallback, panthers prefer younger players. Monroe Freeling (Round 1, Pick 19 | OT, Georgia): 21 years old Lee Hunter (Round 2, Pick 49 | DT, Texas Tech): 22 years old (estimated) Chris Brazzell II (Round 3, Pick 83 | WR, Tennessee): 22 years old Will Lee III (Round 4, Pick 129 | CB, Texas A&M): 21-22 years old (estimated) Sam Hecht (Round 5, Pick 144 | C, Kansas State): 21-22 years old (estimated) Zakee Wheatley (Round 5, Pick 151 | S, Penn State): 22 years old (estimated) Jackson Kuwatch (Round 7, Pick 227 | LB, Miami OH): 22-23 years old   Tetairoa McMillan, WR (Arizona) — Age: 22 Nic Scourton, EDGE (Texas A&M) — Age: 20 Princely Umanmielen, EDGE (Ole Miss) — Age: 21 Trevor Etienne, RB (Georgia) — Age: 20 Lathan Ransom, SAF (Ohio State) — Age: 23 Cam Jackson, DT (FL)- age 22 Mitchell Evans, TE (ND)- age 22 Horn-22   Fitterererere just turned out to be a awful hire, too green, too willing to please, no sense of what talent looks like on teams other than Seahawks, too much pressure, didnt have the correct network of coaches and FO office people. Kick was herniay leftd him with a bare bones talent to start with and besides taking a bottom level team and improving it, he made it even worse AND trading prime draft picks to prolong the timeline to fix. People forget Dan didn't have the 1st overall pick and 39th overall(that dude looking good for bears) to repair this team. Dan could have traded that 1st overall for a proven 1k WR, 9th overall, future 1st and future 2nd...... 
    • When I read the OP I was thinking more of the Franchise than the league but I agree.  To me DB is the only guy right now but I could see TMac being on the list.     
    • “All-timers” usually stand out early and often.  There really isn’t much wiggle room.  Not many of the greats magically figured it out 3-4 years in.  Franchise greats is another story.  They don’t even have to be all that good to become a legend.  One play or game can make a guy a hometown hero.
