Ian Rapoport: Panthers likely to have interest in Jimmy Garoppolo

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.

    • I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.
    • It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!
    • I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
