We are really going to let Rhule (who has begged) to trade for Mayfield so we can get 7 wins instead of 6, still not make the playoffs, not be able to have a top 10 pick to take a QB and have Rhule stick around? And some people on here are hype. If this trade is anything except a straight up Darnold for Mayfield trade we are idiots. Cleveland has no leverage and we will probably still get out-negotiated. If I was that bad at negotiating at my job Id be fired.

Well yeah. Who would swap anything for the worst starting QB in years. I don't understand why anyone entertains the notion anymore.

Looking like back to back years of bidding against ourselves for a QB no one else wants. If we double up on them and have Corral inactive the whole season...

I went to look something up for him, and the box on the right that usually links to Wikipedia says:

Baker Reagan Mayfield is an American football quarterback for the Shanghai Sharks of the National Football League.

Looks like we lost out to Shanghai. 

The Wikipedia article does not say that (unfortunately) nor does it look like it ever did.  They missed out on a scoop.

So per both Kunkel and Cabot, still not close...

The Browns hold the upper hand here. Darnold is 100% a liability. A negative asset. There's zero doubt about that. The Browns can always sit tight and wait for a potential QB injury that could change the market. We're still gonna have trash Darnold and a 3rd round rookie that we're obviously not planning to play early.

If the Panthers want to make this happen, they're just going to have to swallow the bitter pill that they're going to have to eat that Darnold cap hit. Which is exactly what I said would happen when we idiotically picked up that option to double down on the idiocy of trading for him.

I don't think we have to worry about that. Based on how Scott Fitterer has talked about Corral I have no doubt he will play at some point this season. He still hasn't even signed has he? Matt Corral and his agent know what's on the horizon.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By 45catfan · Posted

      I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?

      A look at the team after the draft and udfa signings...

      It is due diligence at that point. Irresponsible not to take him.  Crossing my fingers on this one, he has everything you look for except experience.
