This is not as unlikely as many may think.   I would love our options if it does pan out like this. 

How would you feel if after Jacksonville takes Lawrence.

The Jets do not take a QB and stick with Darnold (which has been mentioned in the press)

Miami passes on a QB too and stick with Tua.  Same thing here many have said they will stick with Tua

Atlanta will take Fields or Wilson

Cincinnati  take Sewell

Philly passes on a QB

Lions have Goff

That leave Fields or Wilson, and Lance.

Tua and Darnold are both worth replacing so I assume they will pick QBs until they prove otherwise. Who knows, bad teams make bad decisions. I sure hope we luck into a drafted QB this year. Thr other options are bleak as hell. I don't even think Goff is safe, it looked like a contract dump to me over a talent acquisition.

In this market Goff is probably way too talented to dump. Could they end up trying to move him elsewhere? Maybe

Maybe, don't know who wants to buy tho.

It looked like their GM saw him as the answer or it was a player dump for draft capital. The second is ruthless but effective and the first is extremely suspect. If they did a cash dump and can turn around and get another pick, that GM has impressed me for sure. With his ties I suspect they will give him a shot.

What if Goff and their 1sts was part of a deal for Watson. Lol it's crazy season

I would think at least 5-6 teams would have interest, if not more. 

Goff may be average or better(or worse) but even those QB's are getting to be rare in the current NFL.

I just don't get it. People paying top dollar for known commodities so the seller can go replace them with a better option. Just bananas. At least the Rams are making a legit attempt at a run, the proposed deals all have us being privileged to treadwater at a premium. At this point, just keep the 8th and see what the draft brings.

I think finally all 32 teams understand that if you don't get better at QB, you aren't going to get better as a franchise.

Plus you also have more openings at QB as former elite QB's retire and get close to retirement. 

It has made this offseason(and it hasn't even really officially started yet!) extremely exciting.

If you don't get good at QB there is no hope. Better is just staff covering their asses or doing something because they can't do something good. That is very shortsighted, risky and I'm not very forgiving of their desperations.

You are right, at least it is exciting. It would be a lot more enjoyable if we had a good QB and could sit back and enjoy the show. At this rate, we are getting a 2nd for Teddy yet?

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
