As would I BUT we might not be able to get to 1. It won’t be for a lack of trying I can assure you of that. 

So now would you rather have LJ for 2 1st’s and a contract OR trade up to 2 or 3 in the draft for multiple 1’s and your second or third choice at QB?

Yeah thats a tough decision... If I knew Im not getting CJ then Im not making that trade and letting AR15 hopefully fall to me.

In other QB news - the Giants just paid Daniel Jones 4 years 160 mil, with another 35 available in incentives.  Jesus Christ All Mighty.

This is the dumbest thing I've ever seen an NFL team do. Imagine declining to pickup a guy's 5th year option and then after seeing him throw for only 3200 yards and 15 TDs deciding to give him that contract. LOLOLOLOL

But Fitterer isn’t in a position to sit and hope someone falls to him that’s the problem here 

This whole things is a mess… again

Pretty disingenuous to blame Cam's playing style for his injuries when both of his shoulder injuries happened on pocket passing plays.

True, but even the little hits from running add up. If you keep getting nicked for 1 HP damage on Run plays then you aren't going into the fight with a full pool of health in the passing game. Sooner or later you fail a saving throw and go down.

The 2 first round is not the problem is the ridiculous fully guaranteed contract.

 

If Lamar would take something like 2 years 100 mill I think plenty of teams would want him 

Exactly.  The draft capital is absolutely nothing for a player of Lamar's caliber.

The contract demands, especially the guaranteed part, should give anyone pause.

That being said, I'm still of the opinion that trading for Lamar is no more risky than drafting Young, Stroud, or Richardson.

I trust the current coaching staff to make the right call- I'm glad I don't have to make it.

And I will say this, after screwing around with Deshaun Watson and not resigning Hasson Reddick or Stephon Gilmore, they need to make a decision in whatever direction so that FA is not impacted by this.

Schoen and Daboll are considered smart guys but I don't get this either.

We don't have to offer him the fully guaranteed contract.

Why do you guys keep saying this. That's what his agent is saying to keep the price high. Doesn't mean he's not going to take a deal with lesser guaranteed money.

Offer him 190 mil guaranteed. That's much more than what the Ravens offered him 133 mil guaranteed. Don't overthink this people. Lamar is not saying pay me Watson or I won't play. He's saying give me something close to that.

And then all the Ravens have to do is match the deal.

We trade for Lamar we are the favorites to win the NFC.

 

Dude was in the AFC against those elite QB's and still won 75% of his games and did it with no weapons around him besides a TE.

 

You're crazy if you don't think Lamar would be the best QB in the NFC. He's proven. Whatever teams gets him just became a contender overnight.

I don't know about NFC favorites, but we would definitely be the overwhelming favorites for the NFC South, and top 3-5 in the NFC.

The issue comes down in my mind to the risk associated with the contract demands and injury history.

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      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)

      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.
