To me he is our backup plan in case no other QB falls that we like and the capital is too much to go up and get one (thanks Niners). If one falls and we draft them no one will care about our 2nd next year and if they all go above us, we will be happy we traded for Darnold. It really makes sense. It’s like the GM that helped Seattle be a consistent, competitive team knows what he is doing...

This is a win win situation. Yall need to stop trippin
ForJimmy replied to Agent Blue's topic in Carolina Panthers
Some teams like Slater better so possibly 5 QBs, Pitts, and Slater/Chase/Smith could all go 1-7. I’ll be happy with Slater too. -
Yeah and for a player with way more upside/potential starter if the draft doesn’t fall out way (which it very well may not).
-
We can spread that $18 million over these next two years is what I read. So a 2 year $23ish million dollar deal for a backup/potential starter.

Just curious. How do you feel about Sammy's vs Teddy's deal?
ForJimmy replied to top dawg's topic in Carolina Panthers
I think Darnold replaces Teddy and is there in case none of the top QBs make it to us, which is a very real possibly. If we really like Fields or Lance and they are sitting there at 8, I could see us taking one. The Chiefs didn’t start Mahomes right away and it worked out great. Especially if it’s Lance as he may need more time to develop/adjust. Just because Darnold WAS a first round pick doesn’t mean we view him as one. We traded next year’s 2 and some late picks, which took us a couple weeks to get that high. -
Ah yes the stat that has Fitzmagic rated higher than Tom Brady, Russ Wilson, Drew Brees, and Watson...

ForJimmy replied to top dawg's topic in Carolina Panthers
At the end we went up on our offer to go ahead and get the deal done, but originally several teams were interested, they just wanted a 1st which wasn’t happening. Also here is Fitts on us possibly still taking a QB... https://www.panthers.com/news/scott-fitterer-adding-sam-darnold-gives-panthers-options?fbclid=IwAR1UQvKczkk26mnZcAMjBO3rtvcXsNj3FlpIyLn1xNoz5BrgMwEej0dLECg -

I think so. Then you start Darnold until the rookie is ready. -

ForJimmy replied to top dawg's topic in Carolina Panthers
I think if they waited until after/during the draft it could have turned into a bidding war for him. I’m pretty indifferent/ optimistic about the deal. I like it better than trading multiple 1st rounders for an unknown rookie, better than sticking with Teddy, and better than drafting Mac at 8 (yeah I know he is probably going at 3, but still). Darnold is actually a lot more mobile that I initially thought which is another nice surprise. If we have Fields or possibly Lance available at 8 and we pass because of this deal I will be some what disappointed... -
So they are going to try the same thing with Zach Wilson? No line, no weapons, and play him right away... Well another team can trade for him in a couple years.
-
He is still a big question mark. I don’t know if Tom Brady could have done much with that Jets team...

I’m not sure Darnold is “our guy.” I think he was our last resort that we went ahead and locked up so we don’t have to give up multiple first round picks to grab the 4th/5th QB in this draft if it falls that way. This allows to to stay put at 8 and still get a Lance or Fields if they fall. Darnold will be the starter until they are ready. Worst case scenario is all 4/5 QBs are gone by 8 and we grab a potential franchise LT to give Darnold a solid chance and have a stable line for a new QB if he doesn’t develop like we hoped. I think we much rather have Darnold AND Lance/Fields or just Darnold that risking watching Teddy again.
-
I like it better than the Wentz trade still...
-
Let’s see what we get for Teddy and how the draft goes. If we roll out next season with Darnold starting while Lance/Fields get up to speed I will be very happy. If we get a 3rd/4th for Teddy than this deal really isn’t that bad...
-
Yeah if the Jets were in a top 3 draft position to draft a new QB to pair with their new coach, I think they would have kept him and got some line help/ weapons.
-
We won’t have to freak out and trade up for a QB now, but if Fields/Lance fall to 8, I hope we still draft them. If not Slater/Sewell/Surtain/Chase would all make me happy.
-
So then, what are we netting for Teddy and where’s he headed to?
ForJimmy replied to davos's topic in Carolina Panthers
Hoping for 3rd, will probably get a 4th. WFT, SF (back up), NO, DEN are all options. -
I’ll wait and see what we get for Teddy before I make a judgement. Also I hope we still pounce on Lance or Fields if they fall to 8.

ATL for Julio? -
Report: Falcons open to trading 4th pick
ForJimmy replied to Mistuh Jones's topic in Carolina Panthers
I just can’t get excited about Darnold... I get he has some talent, but I don’t know if he has the smarts to play that position consistently at a high level. The whole seeing ghosts comment was a bit of a red flag.... -
Report: Falcons open to trading 4th pick
ForJimmy replied to Mistuh Jones's topic in Carolina Panthers
ATL probably isn’t ready for a QB, but doesn’t want us getting Fields. Pretty smart and frustrating actually.... -
Don’t we already have that in Teddy? The problem it they have trouble hitting the deep target and keeping the defense honest. They can also struggle with blitzes. To me Fields is the best option. Great thrower, strong arm, accurate, and has the ability to extend the play with his feet. Our offense line is far from dominate as are most in this league. It helps to have a QB who can avoid pressure and extend plays with his legs like Mahomes, Rodgers, Allen, Watson, Lamar, and Russ do.
