Baker Mayfield is a Carolina Panther

Speaking objectively...

This is a really well administered trade when you look at what we gave up and what we're paying.

I understand this. From a long term perspective though, it wasn't the best move to make. You're going to lack key data to make some really important decisions next offseason.

desperation move. I don't mind the price of a 2024 conditional 5th, but doesn't feel like there's any sort of long term vision. What good does winning 8-9 games this year instead of 5-6 do?

exactly

 

They are making moves in the short term trying to save their jobs and tepper is letting it go down, fug them all

Unless Mayfield BALLS OUT, this will set us back at the QB position and muddy yet another draft next season. Foolish seems to be the #newnormal at 1 Panther Place

What would you rather them do?

This guy literally won a playoff game for the Cleveland Browns... The same Cleveland Browns who had like 30 starting QBs in the last 20 years. A million times better than Darnold and for just $5M and a conditional 5th. Phenomenal trade. Now just cut Sam and roll with Baker and Corral. No phony bullshit "competition" with Sam.

The more I think about it the more I like it.  It’s basically only one year of cap space for a conditional 5th in 2024.  If he plays well, awesome!  If not, bye!  
 

The thing that’s most exciting is that our offense has been so bland and boring since Cam left.  There’s no energy.  No one gets hype.  Baker has attitude in spades, so seeing that will be a breath of fresh air from the stale BS we’re accustomed to

so we have one QB that sees ghosts and the other that's afraid to throw the ball to his WRs.

...coached by an OC who didn't like either of them the year they were drafted 😕

    • Don't forget the young TEs, Coker, Etienne, and Jimmy Horn Jr! 😮 I'm amped to see how the team develops over the course of this upcoming season.

    • No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.
