You are really going to be disappointed when the Panthers sign Jimmy G to start, Sam Darnold to backup and draft Will Levis to develop. 

Hmmm! That might not be ideal but I can think of worse arrangements. 

Even if the Panthers draft a QB they will still need another one to bridge until he is ready to start and it's not like there are numerous QB's out there that could fill that slot.

They will indeed have to sign a vet to keep the seat warm for whatever rookie they will be grooming.  They will not just throw the kid out there game one.  None of the prospects are ready for that.

Hmm. Seems like Klein may know something. Interesting. 
If it is Darnold I expect people to freak out. If it is Jimmy G I expect some people to freak out. 
Darnold or any other QB not names Jimmy = Backup for rookie who can start year one. 
Jimmy G = Bridge for rookie who will get a red shirt year.

Guess we gotta hope that Reich is the QB whisperer people think he is and he can develop a QB with the highest floor but lowest ceiling into a franchise QB, or at least a competent starter.

Hypothetically, even Young or Stroud? If it is either of those I’d expect them to start sometime next year unless the team over performs and taking out the current QB doesn’t make sense because he has the hot hand.

They're estimating Jimmy G @ around $8M per after coming off a $7M year in '22. 

A guy that is more ready like Stroud or Young would probably only need a year of Jimmy G here. Someone like AR, Levis or Hooker might not be ready until the midpoint of '24. 

I would prefer Brissett, Minshew or Rush.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
