No reason they would do that.  They are out of the playoffs, and they would be spending money for no material gain.

I could see Seattle doing it though.  

It would hurt the 49ers chances for a deep run, thats the main reason. They dont need or want him, seahawks could do the same......49ers may have the best D when healthy, clear path to deep run even with a sucky-ass QB....

 

plus in thoery you could claim him and hope to the heavens some dumb team signs him to crazy deal thus giving you a shot at a late comp pick.... If baker is on your QB radar, what better/cheaper way than 1.4million(nfl pennies) for a 5 game tryout?? Much cheaper than signing him to some 12 million one year deal.

Youre in the car wash business. A local one is getting rid of a 2018 flow max 9000 thats in work condition. They even took it down and packed it all nice and neat. Your chief competitor needs one since theirs blew up and its not repairable this year. You dont need it, but have storage space. You are also much closer mileage wise and rivial has already called asking. Its first come first serve- What does one do??

Wonder if they asked for behind the scenes vibes from CMC

It all seems to me the 49ers reached out to Baker via back door channels to try and facilitate his release. Classy move by the Panthers to cut him but I have a feeling they might have been considering it already

Because Seattle is competing for the division and they may want keep SF from picking up a new qb.  Of course, I am sure that some here might think Seattle is better off letting SF have Mayfield.  But the original point was that there is no reason for Los Angeles to grab him with them having no shot at a playoff.  No reason to spend the money.

Yeah, @Basbear explained it (albeit using an analogy). I totally overlooked that angle from Seattle's perspective because of Geno (and Lock to a lesser degree).

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
