That poo hurts thinking about it though huh. I am not sure if they'd consider YGM to be on the level but sure I'd do that if the Texans would.

That's kind of a tough sell for me.

Said elsewhere: Put yourself in their shoes. You're trading away a young franchise quarterback and also looking to replace JJ Watt.

The team you're negotiating with has Brian Burns but offers you Yetur Gross-Matos instead.

What's your reaction?

I can't answer that and be unbiased because as a Panther fan wanting Watson I'd love to have that be the case instead.

But It'd depend on how our pro scouts rate YGM and weigh it compared to the number of picks on offer which is 3 firsts at a minimum but what else is anyone's guess atm.

I feel that the Panthers have a real chance to get this done (if the Texans are willing), but they can't half-azz an offer and stay in contention. 

What is in our favor is he wants to come back to the area badly and Clemson can lobby for us and his no trade which is an obstical in Houston shipping him just anywhere.

Aaron Wilson's "quarterback limbo" article lists three or four teams that Watson is interested in.

It mentions us, but doesn't really say anything about Watson preferring us.

A lot of people read articles and just take that poo as is without even trying to hear what is actually being said. A "here are my(some random ass media person) 4 locations for X player" Then they take that as the player themselves actually wanting to go somewhere.

Really not a surprise considering the complete misses to your basic queries on here. He set up a scenario and asked a question? That means he believes it!

I'd take Aaron Wilson over Mike Florio any day of the week, even if he was saying something I didn't want to hear.

Wilson established himself as one of the best reporters in the NFL back when he was the Ravens insider.

I wouldn’t expect them to do it with him alone, pair two of the three I mentioned up. It’s unlikely I know, I’m just brainstorming.

I hope Tepper doesn't turn into another meddling owner.

Does the new GM and Rhule really want to tie up their entire future into 1 player? It doesn't seem like a risk they would want to take.

then again we never make risks like this and we have 0 superbowls why not just take it and see if we can pull it off we have nothing to lose if we dont get watson this is a 7-9 team at best

    • After the Chiefs game a 6'5 X would really help in the Red zone. I would also love to add Slayton in FA 
    • But again, you can restock a defense through free agency much easier than offensive skill positions. Spend all our cap space on defense, take a true elite prospect who also happens to fit a position of need in T-Mac, and then use the rest of our picks on defense. Again, every season there’s a smattering of great DL, LB, and DB options in free agency, a Top 10 WR never hits free agency, ever.  The only way you get one is through the draft or giving up 1st round picks in a trade for one. If he’s there when we’re on the clock, he has to be the pick, he’s just that good.  
    • It must be an early Christmas for JT O'Sullivan having Thielen back so he could put a coal in Thielen's stocking every chance he gets.  Honestly, the biggest surprise is not so much the anticipation. There were those moments here and there last year as well. It's that even that one positive quality he had seemingly vanished his first two games to where it looked like it was all but over, only for it to start coming back some until you get exclamation points all over this game film. And some of those throws were under a lot of duress, something I feel is something new. Finally, those deeper shots are starting to land. Not all of them, but enough that defenses may have to start respecting them. No guarantees whether this will end up as more of anomaly but I certainly hope it isn't. The Green Bay game was a sampler of what BY could be. Against KC, we got a meal. If we could start getting these meals regularly, we might actually have something to work with here.
