BILL BARNWELL: 2. Carolina Panthers Panthers send: Eighth and 39th overall picks in 2021, 2022 first-round pick, 2023 first-round pick, QB Teddy Bridgewater Texans send: 2022 third-round pick, 2023 fourth-round pick, QB Deshaun Watson The Panthers probably aren't in position to get the quarterback of their dreams at No. 8, which means they'll either need to trade up a few spots or make a massive deal for Watson. This would be a dramatic move for Matt Rhule and new general manager Scott Fitterer, but Carolina was frustrated with Bridgewater by the end of the season and might be inclined to swap draft capital for a long-term solution at the most important position in sports. The Panthers would send their next three first-round picks and a second-rounder to the Texans, who also would get a year of Bridgewater at $18 million before having to decide whether to move ahead with him in 2022 for $21 million.

DESHAUN WATSONQB, HOUSTON TEXANS NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports the Panthers plan to make a "strong push" for Deshaun Watson. Rapsheet reports Carolina will be "aggressive" in pursuit of the elite quarterback. As we know, any team with even a passing need at quarterback should be checking into Watson's availability, but the Panthers are a particularly good fit. They have both an acute need under center and the No. 8 overall pick in the draft. The Texans will surely like the fact that they also reside in the opposite conference, limiting the amount of times Watson will be able to embarrass them in the years to come. Sporting an aggressive front office, the Panthers should be taken seriously if the Texans give into Watson's demand to be dealt

yeah good luck with that, we wouldn't even get 1 dozen bo-berry biscuits for them

Final offer: - DJ Moore - Brian Burns - 2021 1st round pick - 2021 2nd round pick - 2022 1st round pick - 2022 3rd round pick - one dozen bo-berry biscuits Would you make that deal?

Lions will accommodate him, they won't trade him to a team he doesn't want to play for.

If I were Stafford, I would be less than impressed

We have to be realistic here, Lions and Panthers both won 5 games last year. Why would Stafford want out from a bad team to join another bad/rebuilding team??

Let me ask you guys, what makes you think Stafford would want to come to the Panthers? I just don't see it

Deal

David NewtonESPN Staff Writer New Panthers quarterbacks coach Sean Ryan seems to be taking at least some of the responsibility of OC coordinator Joe Brady, who is not attending the Senior Bowl due to COVID-related issue. Ryan previously has coached Matt Stafford and Deshaun Watson, both of who should be on Carolina's radar. Alabama's Mac Jones likely is the only QB here on the team's radar.

David NewtonESPN Staff Writer Panthers coach Matt Rhule begins his first Senior Bowl practice. He really wanted to coach this game to get a close-up evaluation of many players he will be considering for the draft. With no combine this will be very valuable.

David NewtonESPN Staff Writer The Panthers don't have offensive coordinator Joe Brady and linebackers coach Mike Siravo at the Senior Bowl due to COVID-19 related issues. The offensive staff will take Brady's duties and defensive run game coordinator Al Holcomb will coach LBs.

Peter King: 1. Colts. Easy pick. Frank Reich needs a quarterback and with the likelihood that Carson Wentz will stay in Philly, Stafford is the best option for a cap-rich team. Compensation: 21st overall pick in the 2021 draft. 2. Broncos. Doubt new GM George Paton, who has watched Stafford closely for 12 years while in Minnesota, would be sold on Drew Lock. Competition needed. Compensation: Two second-round picks (including 39th overall this year). Or Lock plus this year’s second-rounder. 3. Patriots. Bill Belichick, as he did when he first got to New England, got his cap in decent shape with one lousy year as payment. But would he be willing to pay the 15th overall pick for Stafford? He should be. Compensation: 15th overall pick. 4. Niners. Intriguing. San Francisco talks a big game about loving Jimmy Garoppolo, and maybe the franchise does. We’ll see. Compensation: Garoppolo and a 2022 second-round pick. 5. Washington. WFT has the defense to compete at a high level now. If I’m Ron Rivera, I try to convince Comeback Player of the Year Alex Smith to stay and back up a franchise passer like Stafford for the next couple of years. Compensation: 19th overall pick. (If I’m Detroit, signing free-agent-to-be Taylor Heinicke would be some interesting, and smart, insurance.) https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/01/25/tom-brady-bucs-chiefs-super-bowl-fmia-peter-king/
