I don't know if some of the rumblings are true. I guess I am just not sure how you trot him back out there after this offseason. If we sign someone else or draft someone else, we would have the most expensive backup QB in the NFL and by a significant margin(possibly the most expensive backup in NFL history).

It seems like trotting out Teddy again would generally be problematic. Does he have trade value? To be determined.

I mean I’m not reading into what what Rhule/Fitterer said, they’re not going to come out and say yeah he isn’t out qb, he’s a terrible person and we’re most definitely trading him. They just trying to keep everything on the down low while not bad mouthing him. Take everything said yesterday with grain of salt. If u haven’t I posted a Rich Eisen podcast in another thread you should watch it.

The chances we roll into next year with Teddy without a change of direction is probably dictated by Tepper. He won't let that happen, he has tickets to sell and Teddy won't help that in any positive way and he knows it. I have no idea what will happen but something will happen. I'm just hoping we have a great eye for talent and enough brains to not do something dumb. Either way, Teddy ain't an answer at this point. We even sat the dude for an XFL QB. It's over either way. Tepper needs butts in seats and Teddy can't do that. The cap is wasted either way with Teddy, he is gone It's just how at this point.

Yeah what I was thinking he has been watching and listening to what fans have said a lot. You know he probably has people that come on these sites and read what fans are saying. After not having hardly anyone at stadium last year and losing money, can’t see them trotting Teddy out there again to a half empty stadium because that’s what will happen if he is back

His average completion is 11.2 not attempt. YAC count towards that stat. He can throw it 5 yds and Smith run it another 50.

Ball placement and timing have a lot to do with a 5 yard pass going 50 yards.

Draft bpa at #8. Trade a day 3 pick for Garner Minshew.

Jacksonville would be crazy to give up Minshew for that kind of a pick. Frankly, I would probably want a first round pick for him. He is INSANELY cheap and probably the best backup QB in the NFL.

So you believe Tepper is making these sorts of player personnel decisions?

Panthers fans have a decades long track record of paying for tickets regardless of what kind of product is placed on the field.  Remember, only 7 winning seasons in history...those pesky PSL's are an amazingly effective sledge-hammer.

The butts in seats results in much more sales. I'm buying my PSL but it doesn't mean I'm going to a game. I can give those to family and friends or sale them. Real easy, he makes more money with more people in the stadium.

Trade down and get Mac Jones late first or early second. He isn’t worth number 8 but could be fair value later

No guarantee he will be there if you trade down. If he's you're guy for the future then you take him at #8. If you have doubts then draft BPA at any of our positions of need: LT, CB, Edge Rusher, interior Rusher, or even a LB if he excels in pass coverage and makes an impact on the run game.

If we can get Mend in the second, i'd be fine with this. If we could shore up a LT or a defensive standout at 8, if not trade down for more picks, then we gotta roll with teddy. We also haven't seen much cuts yet, but taking someone else's garbage at QB puts us in the same position. If you give Teddy more time in the pocket, he can throw it down field. We saw it early last year. Problem is the lack of protection shot his confidence and depended on his offense making plays. The other half of this is if we get CMC back and can play 16 games gives another option. WE ABSOLUTELY SHOULD NOT MORTGAGE THE FUTURE

      Verge, why do you like Mykel Williams?

      No, but considering that over a third (~35%) of their schedule are the other three teams in the NFC South and all three have strong starting (and back-up) RBs that the offense leans heavily on to open up the pass game. ATL: Bijan has this season and next season before the Falcons have to make a decision on his fifth-year option, Tyler Allgeier is a proven back-up RB that could start for some teams, and 2024 sixth-round selection Jase McClellan returns from a knee injury that sidelined him for the remainder of the season starting in early September. Combine that with their QB situation, and that's a team that is going to lean heavily on the run just like they did last season when they were 8th in the league in rushing attempts, 10th in rushing yards, 8th in rushing TDs, 9th in rushing attempts on 1st down, . NO: Similar situation as ATL, but for different reasons. Derek Carr is in the second to last year of his deal and the QBs behind him are Spencer Rattler, Jake Haener, and Ben DiNucci. However, they also have Alvin Kamara. One thing that we know about Kellen Moore from his stints as an OC is that he likes to lean heavily on a versatile RB1 while bringing in an arguably equally versatile RB2 to keep their foot on opposing defenses. When Moore had Zeke in Dallas, Zeke was 4th in the league in touches during those four years but Pollard still averaged 10 touches and nearly 60yds a game. Look for the Saints to shore up their RB room in the draft with Kendre Miller, CEH, Jordan Mims, and Xazavian Valladay all competing for touches behind Kamara. TB: Bucky Irving exploded onto the scene last season, but we can't forget more than capable (now-)RB2 Rachaad White. White is on the last year of his rookie deal, but Irving is under contract until 2028. Last season, the Bucs were 10th in rushing attempts, 4th in rushing yards, 3rd in YPC, 7th in carries of 20+, 8th in carries of 40+, and 7th in first down rushing attempts and that helped Baker Mayfield be one of the most efficient passers in the league with a 71.4% completion percentage (good enough for 2nd in the league).
