Tepper hired a private investigator to look into Deshaun Watson

Organizations hiring PIs to look into a possible franchise QB?

A 50 year long tradition in the NFL. Is this news? I think the big news would be that an organization did not hire a PI to look into a move on a franchise QB.

Exactly, it's called a background check.

As the compensation numbers get larger the checking out becomes more comprehensive...especially when there are overhanging "issues" like we have with Mr. Whip-It-Out.

That said, as usual, not a single named source. 🤦‍♂️

no one should be surprised that Tepper hired a private investigator to look into this. even if the decision to bring in Watson would not be a good one, which I don't think it would be, getting someone you trust to dig in to the details of a public, messy situation so that you can make the best choice is a good decision.

There is a 100% chance that someone would know this.  For example, the one they hired and anyone that worked for him or her.  Whether they would tell somebody in the press is anyone's guess.  

Unless that is the Panthers never hired a P.I. in the first place 🧐

If Tepper actually trades for Watson will you be leaving? If so that's a silver lining. It ain't much but it'll have to do.

At least we will be able to track our new QB through the find a preditor site...cool.

I also assume he won't be doing charity work with the kids...

If he's hired, prepare yourself for a PR blitz of the Panthers supporting women's issues. They will probably have him doing ads claiming how much he is donating to abuse shelters and the like. The whole team will be wearing pink shoes. The hypocrisy will likely make me vomit.

So you stopped watching the NFL after the Ray Rice video and all the other documented instances of abuse right?

At least we get a 'Go rapists' chant...that's fun too.

I'm all for redemption but after what and how he has handled this entire thing he looks guilty and remorseless. Act right for a few years after the court stuff is finished and I would be willing to listen about change and all that.

Does not matter it will blow over eventually

All that matters is that we would be getting a franchise QB in his prime 

Some team WILL trade for Deshaun and a year from now no one will remember or care what they gave up to get him

Ray Rice wasn't on MY team and I didn't support them to start with. He should have been in prison. I have been a Panthers fan from the start. When they start acting as shitty as other teams, I don't have to put up with it.

So if it's not on your team no harm no foul? Sounds like performative outrage.

    • He played like the kid coming out of Alabama. That's what he has done and what everyone expected him to do from the jump. What almost everyone failed to consider was what it would take to get him to play like that in the nfl. Turns out it was just a matter of confidence. 
    • This is actually a good discussion that dime to Legette was about 35 yards very accurate but not the TD throw to AT, but I definitely found Bryce hitting passes extremely similar to Andy I didn’t think Bryce could a couple weeks ago but that’s just not true he can. 32 sec mark he drops a dime 40 yards down the field where only Cooker can catch it with plenty zip with elite accuracy, I’d say the exact same dime Andy threw just diff part of the field. Bryce is showing he can make every throw Andy can make.  And your question is way to specific to find examples but I can find you very similar plays and If my boy Legette catches the dam ball Bryce might be able to have a deep TD pass that traveled about 30+ yards in the air we just need him to catch the ball and take off up the field but that’s not my argument I’m here to show Bryce throwing similar darts to Andy in his first year of being in a competent offense. TMJ and DJ Chark Mingo Ian Thomas lol and others as your go to weapons I’d say can have a major negative affect on your performances. But to address the argument here Bryce has film doing what Andy can do here’s the proof. (See video above)
    • I agree with all of that and Fitterer definitely sucked.  Some of that may also be blamed on the fact that he did not start with a fresh regime to come in.  So he had already burned some of his wick when we were starting over with a new coach (twice). The reality is that we do not often see players traded for that kind of package in the NFL today.  We don't see teams selling off star players for large hauls to start a re-build.  Whether or not that is the correct decision is up for debate.  But in the NFL it's observable that the opposite is mostly the case.  Teams tend to over value present assets vs future assets. It all goes back to the fact that "now" is all that matters if you're running an NFL team.  They say the NFL stands for "not for long".  You don't have the luxury to sow a field that won't be harvested until after you're gone.  Nobody's that selfless in NFL front offices.
