I believe if we trade him the new team is responsible for that cap hit. With how he's played though, may have to attach a mid rounder just to get another team to take him on for a year.

I wouldn't agree to it, but players on that list are getting paid their full contract to not play... Not necessarily the worst thing in the world. Free money, literally.

That "something" we're getting has a significant chance of winding up behind bars... 2 1sts AND higher profile players, that's a fat no from me dawg. 2 1sts and Robby maybe if they take Sam I'd consider. But our 1st next year looking like it might be pretty damn high. Watson would help but the back half of the schedule is brutal, I'm not sure he'd even be enough to save this season. Could wind up being a top 10 pick even with Watson here.

Gonna need quite a bit when we can't afford to pay Burns, Donte, Reddick, etc. Damn near allowed 600 yards to the Vikings...

I’m fine with risk, but not when crippling the ability to build the rest of the roster by trading 3 1st rounders AND roster players, as is the reported asking price. Good luck building the OL and the rest of the D...

I can just tell as it's written in Carolina Panthers DNA that we'll trade for him and plan to play him and the NFL will immediately put him on the Commissioner's Exempt List.

Panthers and Dolphins only ones in the mix. And Peter King reported Monday that Dolphins owner Stephen Ross "is not pushing his football people to deal for Watson right now." https://www.nbcsportsedge.com/football/nfl/player/8073/deshaun-watson

I agree with you, I think our roster is pretty solid except QB and OL (obviously huge holes on offense but still). My point was only in response to those defending Rhule due to the roster. Hence the quotes around suck in my other post.

Rhule has final say on the roster. If our players "suck" then Rhule is to blame for it as much as Fitt/Hurney/whoever else.

I really can't believe how good Ish and Cody were in that 4th quarter. LaMelo didn't even need to enter, and honestly great coaching from JB to keep those guys in while they were hot and taking care of business. I'm sure he was ready to call a timeout and get the big boys back in if there were any slip ups but his trust in Ish and Cody continued to payoff right up to the end of the game. Love our coach and GM, Jordan finally got it right with Kup and JB

Yep Canes are a true contender Hornets should definitely be a playoff team at least, could maybe even get a top 4 seed and make some noise early in the playoffs, though I don't think we quite have the star power/depth to truly contend this season (especially the glaring hole at C). In the next few years I could see it but not quite this season. I'll gladly take playoffs though and how fun this team is to watch.

Loving this team so damn much. Miles and LaMelo are such frigging studs. Hayward has been mostly invisible (which is rare when he's healthy) and we're still taking it to one of the favorites to win it all in their house.

There is literally zero chance Rhule doesn't start next season here. We could lose out and he won't get fired.

I don't really follow college ball all that much so thanks for sharing that view. Furthers my point that I think he's a great football coach.

Jim Harbaugh. I know he's been a disaster in college but his NFL results speak for themselves. Hate the guy but he's a hell of an NFL coach.

When one of the most level headed posters here is saying this you know things are bad for this team... Completely agree LP

Who ever said "PJ earned his job?"

We have way more holes on offense than QB, absolutely. But Darnold also clearly is not the answer.

LOL you told us Cam was going to destroy us in our meeting with the Pats! Dude's not even in the league.

Watson can't save this team. No one can. Look at how bad Mahomes has been lately with no offensive line, no running game, no defense and lackadaisical effort from his receivers... Watson would be significantly worse here.

Was a fun first 3 weeks. Hopefully we get some drastic changes before next season, and until then I will be enjoying our 2 professional sports teams here in the Carolinas. Let's go Hornets at 4pm!

"Went all in" LOL

LOL Fields/Jones would not be the answer for us. Would've been a wasted top 10 pick. We overhauled the D the last couple years and still need to overhaul much of the O. It'll take a bit more time.

Darnold and this offense is just so unbelievably bad. Without McCaffrey honestly the only player worth a damn on the entire offense is DJ.

are you fuging shitting me, RB was right fuging there!
