There are way too many inexpensive backup QBs available every year to commit to Darnold, someone that appears to be a major reclamation project.  Reich will already have enough on his plate.  

As you say, if Darnold wants to come back on a minimum deal and compete for a place on the team he might be given an opportunity.  Chances are Reich will be bringing in a vet and there is always Matt Corral, who may still surprise us.  Also, who knows how this year's draft will play out?

Of all the Panthers players Reich will be studying in the next few weeks, Matt Corral may be the most important.  Some analysts viewed Matt as a very promising QB during last year's draft.  If Reich sees something in him, it could alter the Panthers draft priorities.

Phil Simms said he was the best qb in last years draft. Phil been pretty accurate with judging qb draft prospects.  Who knows? I guess we will find out soon enough.

Nope… Corral was a throw everything at the wall to save Rhule’s job move.. If the 3rd year jump thing happened you have Baker and a young QB developing as a backup.. Now Corral is at best case a assets that develops into a trade piece or a backup.. We’re getting our young Franchise QB this year no matter the cost..

While anything is possible, the Panthers are more than a few players away from being serious contenders.  Trading away the farm for one player atp would likely just result in another David Carr scenario and a lack of future draft picks to fix it.

Most important position right now is the QB.. Yes we have holes but that 1 position can mask a few of those.. Add in the fact we have the infrastructure to develop a QB and FA flexibility after this season.. No better time then now to make that swing..

Lastly the division is so poor now.. We hit on this and get a huge head start over every team in this division for years to come…

im sorry the risk reward favors us making this move now…

It certainly is a real possibility that the Panthers will be all in on a new QB in the upcoming draft. 

Or not.

The ultimate decision is in the hands of our much improved Panthers brain trust, we're just spectators.

Yup, every team has some sort of holes. Locking down the QB spot makes it a lot easier to actively target and fill those holes. We've built a good base and its a very friendly spot to Develop a young guy in. Time to go get your guy.

Dude that decision was made when Rhule got fired and CMC was traded away.. They have set themselves up to do this now..

      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?

      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.
