Panthers trying to trade Corral?

It depends on how long our other QBs are out for. He may even need to come in and just finish a game. They made this new rule after watching the Niners struggle with it. 

I get the new rule but what you are not getting is that he has to be on the final 53 for it to take effect.  Going to to the 3rd qb in a real game is rare as fug and I think Reich is old school enough to know this.   In closing I really really doubt this staff wants to burn a roster spot to just try and develop corral and maybe just maybe have to use in him a clusterfug of a game if the 2 qbs ahead of him go down.  I could be wrong but we will see once the final cuts are announced.

 

IMO what probably happens is we either trade him for pennies on the dollar or we try to stash him on the PS

This guy is just guessing the Panthers are trying to trade Corral ….. boy do y’all jump on any tweet or any other media like it the honest truth

but they still count toward your 53 man roster, so essentially he would be taking a space of someone who would in theory participate in a game on the 53

You can also call up 2 practice squad players a week at any other position, the emergency QB has to be on the 53. Some teams will probably gamble with some backup/special teams guys on the practice squad in order to keep the 3 qbs on the 53

Chinn too I think

yeah so I am thinking luton is the guy they stash

No way the young lion gets a spot on the final 53 and no way a team gives up any assets to trade for him. Everyone in the league knows he will be available on waivers in a week.

The "if we're down to QB3 who cares the season is over anyway" logic is fine from the perspective of a fan. But if it happens it will be in large part due to the oline which means someone making the decisions is going to be facing some serious heat. And honestly knowing how these things go for the Panthers I wouldn't be surprised if Corral ends up on a contender and looks competent when needed. Then we'll see the heel turn and people saying why did we trade/cut him we're so stupid. It's predictable.

We would get so little for him it would be better to keep him as the 3rd emergency QB. He is getting familiar with our system and still has potential IMO. 

He was drafted to a team where it made sense for him to be. He now exists on a team where it really doesn’t.  I mean, from Matt’s perspective.  If I was him I would have nicely asked the front office to trade me.   I’d want to go somewhere with an unstable QB position and where it likely could get unstable soon.

maybe but how many times in a nfl game do you see a team needing a 3rd qb?

 

For the record I said the second he got drafted he should be qb#2 on this team and go from there, what rhule and co did to him was criminal, now the timing is just not in his favor

[pantherclaw]

If they can get something for him, they should.

Matt Corrall is the worst QB draft pick in team history.  At least Clausen helped us get Cam.

I understand that 53 man roster rule, but he would be replacing a player that wouldn’t even be dressing out on game day. The emergency QB doesn’t count against the active game day players.

You're not burning a roster spot by carrying 3 QBs. It's literally the most important position in sports.
