I don't want to improve the QB position this year.  Why?  I don't want Rhule anywhere near our QB of the future.  His butt needs to be out the door before we get our franchise QB.  So yeah, Rhule rides with Darnold and PJ Walker this year, hopefully gets canned, and we start the REAL rebuild in 2023.

The best option is darnold goes out with an injury in week 3. Rhule desperately calls cam again to try and get him to come back. This time cam tells rhule to fug off and hangs up the phone. Rhule is forced to start PJ Walker, who is somehow still on the team. Panthers lose the next 4 games to fall to 1-6 on the year and we finish out the season with Wilks as interim coach.

Rhule is really an idiot if he does this.  Jimmy G couldn't get the 49ers a Lombardi and they are STACKED.  They have a good run game, George Kittle and Deebo Samuel.  They have a very talented defense.  But he still wasn't enough.

Why would anyone think Jimmy G is going to be the answer for a significantly worse roster?  We might as well trade for Jared Goff.

Person actually mentioned something I hadn't thought about regarding Garoppolo.

Panthers VP of Player Personnel Pat Stewart was part of the Patriots scouting group that drafted him.

That connection could make a difference, dependent of course on what Stewart thinks of Garoppolo now.

"what Stewart thinks of Garoppolo now".... I hope it is based on reality and not some glorified opinion of what he could have been.

I just don’t see how getting Jimmy is a good thing. Is he better than Sam, yes, but he’s not good enough to take this team on a playoff run. Giving up picks/players for him doesn’t make sense. Like I’ve said before, giving up picks needs to be for a player that can carry teams. Jimmy isn’t that.

One thing I think we can ALL agree on… the COMMANDERS is a stupid name 

when they first were announced, how do you think the Buffalo "Bills" fans felt?  The Packers (are we moving or gay?)? The Browns (Glad the owner was not named Bronkowski)?  the Saints  (dang that is a terrible football name)?  Steelers (after mill workers).  It does not matter.

I've heard a hundred different huddlers say basically the same thing on this board pretty much since he bought the team.

Yet to see any of it actually play out in the real world.

I wasn’t saying, just showed a video. I don’t really believe it either. I need to see to believe. I would be a lot happier if we had a new coach!

Not advocating for this, but here's one possible scenario...

Rhule has to take a big swing on QB or he's out.  Minnesota is currently 18m over the cap without a lot of flexibility.  Cousins is soaking up 45m in cap with 35 dead if he's cut.  They have to move him.

Panthers trade Darnold (18m cap) and Bouye for Cousins (35m cap) and a 5th.

Minnesota gets cap relief of around 15-20m or so and can use their #12 pick on a QB (remember this is a new regime with a hotshot offensive mind at the wheel).  They have several nice weapons and probably see Darnold as a cheaper bridge for their new draftee.

Panthers get a proven successful QB for one year.  They keep their pick so they can add some OL talent.  The extra 5th may help as well.  They will probably need to convert some base salary to bonus for Moton and Shaq and extend DJ in order to get extra cap, but those are fairly easy adjustments as these are long-term investments.

meant to say Minn. 18m over the cap

      JOE PERSON: the sense around league circles is Panthers will take Jalon Walker @8

      By Jon Snow · Posted

      Those guys you mentioned are ILB at the next level. They will be really good too. We could use any of them and like you I hope we can get one of them later on in the draft. The teams need on defense is great than the amount of picks they have. If they are sticking with the 3-4 base they will need another ILB and a OLB that can play DE in 4-3 packages. The front 7 is far from complete and the secondary will not get every need addressed this offseason. The talent is just not going to be available when we are picking I'm afraid.

      There are very few players in this draft that don't have a concern that could cause someone to not like them---I think the longer a player hangs around the top 10 (beginning in February) the more their flaws could withstand the scrutiny. Some fall too far, in my opinion, and are thrown into the scratch and dent bin.  Jack Sawyer (Ohio State) comes to mind, Shavon Revel (East Carolina), Restrepo (Miami).  I wonder if it is not that we found things through research, it could be that we exploited trivial things.  You can't measure the "it" factor. Those three just mentioned--I would have no problem drafting them at a discount.  Restrepo ran a 4.8--not as big a deal as people think--he is going to be a chain-moving slot--he will be sliding underneath, finding a hole in the zone, etc.  Great hands, great attitude.  I take him in the fourth.  Jack Sawyer is the high motor over-achiever.  I think he can be a 8-10 sack guy, block a lot of passes, and hold the edge.  I take him in round 3 if they let him fall that far.  Revel could be one of the top 3 CBs--if he is there at 58, I take him.  When the flaw is what you see when you hear their names, you are blind to their other talents.

      Chris Simms: Jalon Walker is the most overrated player in the draft

      By Icege · Posted

      Sims has to do a little outrage marketing to make the engagement numbers go vroom, but there's been a few analysts that have commented on how Walker is ultimately going to be depending on whomever drafts him to properly develop him. Whether that's starting him off of as a rotational edge guy on obvious passing downs or settling him at ILB will be up to whoever ends up with him. A lot of folks like to point out Isaiah Simmons, and as much as I like Isaiah as a Clemson fan he's not the guy that Jalon Walker is between the ears (this isn't to say Isaiah isn't bright, but didn't seem to breathe football like Jalon does). The kid's got a shot; he's just going to need it somewhere that's going to aim first before firing him off.
