My understanding of Panthers' involvement w/ Baker Mayfield, per sources: Option still alive but Carolina very much torn internally over Mayfield. Some there are simply not sold. Might end up being the best of options but draft QBs are falling and that could affect things.

I wish I could be a fly on the wall and see who was pro and anti Baker.

As to the "torn" aspect of it, how much you want to bet this is Rhule vs Fitterer?

I suspect Rhule wants Baker.  Fitterer doesn’t. McAdoo doesn’t.  

Baker seems like a Rhule move to salvage the best record possible to save face and dig himself out of a hole.

It has to be because Rhule is desperate to win now while Fitt and others are willing to build the right way

    • Maybe, but a player can also bust for a lot of reasons.  And I'm not about to go look up the stats of all the 1st round WR busts, but I'd be surprised if they had the sustained output and success in college that T-Mac had.  Those early WR busts are usually guys who had one breakout season and then were highly drafted because of physical potential, not already built out ability. I'm not even saying T-Mac is 100% going to have a better career than Chark (although I obviously think he will). I'm just saying that right now, his skill level and ability is better than Chark's ever was, and I don't understand how anyone is arguing against that, not because of T-Mac, but because of who Chark himself was.   If you want to take the argument that you can't say ANY player who hasn't played a down yet can't be considered better than someone who has, then so be it (even though I'd say that's a dumb stance anyways). At his peak ability, Chark was more like a #3 WR than anything else, he was the definition of a league average WR.  If you don't think a Top 10 selected WR with his tape is better than that just because they haven't played in the NFL yet, then you're just stuck on the "he hasn't played a down yet" idea and can't evaluate them as players and abilities.
    • And you would've probably said the same thing about a lot of highly drafted WRs who busted.
    • dude..........   You are way to emotional here
