Jeremy Fowler: Panthers have done their due diligence on QB Jimmy Garoppolo

I think that Jimmy G is the best available option for the team currently. He's got a winning record, playoff experience, and is known to be a smart QB that's safe with the ball. If Rhule wants to run a ball control offense, then Jimmy G is the guy. He's led game winning drives as well, including one last year against the Rams where the 49ers had the lowest chance to win out of any team this season.

Fans that hated Teddy Bridgewater's style of quarterbacking are probably going to want to go ahead and sit out next season if the Panthers trade for Garoppolo. Most of his yardage comes from quick throws underneath and out to the flats so that his weapons can rumble after the catch. With players like CMC, DJ, and Robby that could work. If Tremble can continue to develop, that would give a much needed reliable tight end presence to work with. There's also the very real issue that Jimmy G has only successfully completed one full NFL season, so I would hope that the only way the team would trade for him is if they really believe that this OL is revamped and ready to go.

The problem with Jimmy G isn’t that he can’t play or that he doesn’t possess elite skills. Imo he does. He’s very mobile in the pocket. He has a good arm. He’s smart. 
 

The issue with him is that he’s the CMC of QBs….he can’t stay healthy and he just had major shoulder surgery. He averages like 8 games a season.

Exactly.

The injury concerns alone make the rumored x2 2nd round picks they're asking for him not worth it. At that point, hitch the wagon to Darnold behind a rebooted OL with a new OC + OL coach.

Would the Panthers win more with Jimmy Guap? Undoubtedly. That price has to be right tho.
