Unless the Browns drop the asking price significantly I do not see the Panthers getting him although the interest is definitely there 

If we didn't give Watson what he wanted I doubt we give a 1st for a darnald clone.

Not really. 

If you make a move from Sam next season it needs to be a monumental improvement. 

A Russel Wilson Aaron Rodgers type improvement. Otherwise stay the course till we draft someone. 

I don't want some Baker Mayfield POS who isn't very good and all his teammates hate.

Phuck that.

I can understand arguing that we shouldn't pursue Mayfield. I'm not arguing that we should. But our fans have quickly forgotten just how atrocious Darnold is. 

Mayfield's TD:INT ratio is 92:56. Darnold a is 54:52.

Darnold could never have a 3500 yard season with 26 TDs vs. 8 INTs. He was throwing double digit INTs even in college.

Honestly, if Mayfield had Darnold's attitude he'd probably have an extension in Cleveland. Darnold's a good dude, he's just an awful QB. Mayfield has shown he can be a good QB but he's cocky as hell and I'm not sure that cockiness will ever allow him to be coached into being consistently good.

I just can’t understand how some fans are willing to take a chance on “childish” Baker, that’s the words of the Browns, but were annoyed by Cam. It doesn’t make sense. 
 

I don’t want Baker because I wasn’t impressed by what he did on the field. Now, I do give him some leeway due to his injury, but even before that, I just wasn’t impressed.

With the torn labrum and the 5th year option/potentially hitting FA if he plays well it's a waste of time/another gamble. Plus he's generally dislikable and I'm already sick of him from all those commercials

Hence why I say affordable. If it's a 3rd rounder or less, what is the real risk? Play him here for a year and then if it doesn't work jettison him. No 5th year pick up, none of that stupid poo. A one year rental to try.

Otherwise, why? We are just making another Teddy/Sam deal.

He's on his 5th year so it's the same money we're paying now for Sam, that's the issue for me. I'd rather have Minshew for the same trade with less cap hit

    • Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair. 
    • it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
