It's Levis. The very first rumors were that Tepper loved Levis. Then those rumors went away as the coaches were hired. There really hasn't been a peep about Levis and the Panthers in weeks. He's the pick.

i think they are definitely leaning one way, as in i think that Reich and the coaching staff are pretty much leaning a certain way and Fitt and the scout staff are also leaning a certain way, and the Teppers are also leaning a certain way, but they may not be sharing their thoughts with the others. 

i do feel like after the combine, though, they all had an idea that they wanted someone and the consensus was that whoever it was, the best way to make sure they got their guy was by making this big trade. it wasn't the only way, but it was the only sure way to get him...whoever it is. 

i really don't think any will be surprised when they get together and discuss it the week before the draft (if that's really what's going on) about who the other groups are backing.

i really feel like they saw something together at the combine, though, that said "this is the guy we want to build the franchise around".

Fitt, scouts, ownership are gonna go with who Reich wants when it comes down to it. All Reich really has to do is sell them the vision. You don't hire a coach who just happens to have played QB in league, worked with QBs extensively as a coach, and has had success most of all just to overule him on the most important position that he knows the best. A big reason why Reich here is to help find a franchise QB.

Well if it's between stroud and young, I expect young.

I’ve gone back and forth… watching Stroud all year thinking we might have a chance at him, I didn’t like how he struggled under pressure. When he gets in a rhythm he really shines though. Then the UGA game happened and I’ve been all in on Stroud since. But lately, I’m starting to hope it’s Bryce, he just seems like he’s “that guy” on and off the field and could be a true game-changer for the franchise similar to Cam when he stepped foot in Charlotte. Not saying that I don’t think both will be successful in the NFL, but if we pass on Bryce I could see us regretting it down the road as he turns around the Texans and becomes a face of the league.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
