Yea who hell is so dumb that they thought this was true anyway when it was reported forever ago that other teams were kicking the tires for SD too. Like FFS this site has always had some 'winners' but lately its just bwhahahahahaha you believe in flat earth level.

Like I said, taking a flyer on him for a mid to late pick or two was fine.  Giving then a second for him is what gives me huge pause...  especially now knowing there were no other bidders.

With it being next years it doesn’t sting as much. It might if it turns out to be a horrible signing.  I’m no that high on Darnold but dammit he is my QB now so I will run with it.  Let’s see what Brady and Rhule can  do with him.

The optimism will quickly fade when y’all have to sit through 17 Sundays with Sam Darnold under center. This board will be in total meltdown mode by October 1st over this shitty signing. 

What optimism? The Panthers have 2 division wins since 2019 with Cam Newton Kyle Allen and Teddy Bridgewater. Most people seem to understand we are not a good football team. It's been a rough time for Charlotte sports but they can at least give us a team with some fight. We were not going to get that with a two yards and a cloud of dust passer like Bridgewater and if Darnold isn't it then it is on to the next.

Actually it's been reported multiple teams were interested at one point when the price was too high and they were asking for a 1st or second. After free agency, after the 49ers trade, and after andy dalton there just wasn't any suitors left besides us. 

 

In other words we let the market settle and still got our guy.  Smart

As long as it doesn’t impede our vision of what we COULD get in a falling lance or fields, I like the move. One of those two happen to fall, have yourself a Qb competition and be in a much better place.

Nowhere is it written that if either fall to 8 we don't take him. 

IMO this will be a historic draft.  4 QBs in the first 4 picks.   Regardless of who is left (Fields, Lance or Jones) someone is going to trade up ahead of us to grab that last QB.

Supposedly, we are picking up his 5th year option.  Two years to evaluate.  If he sucks at the end of 2 years we'll have Bridgewater off the books and a fresh start.  If he plays well next year we sign him to a long term contract.

    • I'm still not touching Hunter He again said the other day that he plans on playing both sides of the ball in the NFL.  If he is allowed to do that, he won't be as good on either side as his potential and he's going to have serious injury issues and have a short career.  If he's not allowed to do it, I think he's going to become a problem when the team isn't winning as he's going to feel him not being used on both sides of the ball is why. He's being coddled in that environment with Deion and I think it's doing a disservice to him to prepare him for life in the NFL where your coach isn't a 2nd father to you, to where you can just walk into his locker room and steal his shoes like Hunter does to Deion.
    • He’s a tad behind them. Around 15ish of 32 starters in the league. He’s well ahead of a lot of guys. Tua, Bryce, Cousins (present), Rodgers (current), Devito/Jones, Minshew, Russ (current), Watson, Smith, Carr, T Laws deep ball is weak as poo IMO, there’s plenty. And it’s not like everyone is ripping 60+ers. The key component is if you can rip and maintain velocity of the 30-40 yarders which he does super well. Legit every report out there from Brugler to PFF to PFN document him as good/above average arm strength.  Eye test tells me it’s pretty much that as well, slightly above average.
    • 6-10 carries for  35-45 yds and 3-5 catches for 15-25 would be great.
