ESPN's Dan Graziano: "the majority of the people to whom I spoke with believe Jimmy Garoppolo will likely end up being released" sign with Carolina Panthers

ESPN's Dan Graziano talked to several NFL executives and writes that "the majority of the people to whom I spoke for this story believe both [Baker Mayfield and Jimmy Garoppolo] will likely end up being released."

He also canvassed player agents and coaches for this story, noting that the Garoppolo situation is less messy so there's more of a chance that something gets done. Ultimately, barring a big quarterback injury in training camp that changes things from where we are today, it's not hard to believe this conclusion is coming. Fowler also notes that people most often connect Garoppolo to the Panthers and Mayfield to the Seahawks

I don't care about any of the guys who's agents would love for them to play here. Whatever warm body for 6 games and then play Corral. I'm fine with it being Sam. Not sure how much Jimmy has left anyways now and Baker is a mess waiting to move

He probably has a few more choke jobs left. This coaching staff loves choke jobs.

Panthers reportedly have 'concerns' about Jimmy Garoppolo's shoulder

The Carolina Panthers have repeatedly been linked with Garoppolo in rumors, as it's widely thought he'd be an immediate upgrade over Sam Darnold and third-round draft pick Matt Corral. However, The Athletic's Joseph Person reported for a piece published on Monday that "there are concerns within the Panthers organization about the health of Garoppolo’s throwing shoulder after surgery in March."

With Corral in the fold, we're just showing disinterest until they hit our price point.

I even read somewhere that Drew Brees may unretire and upend the current, very small, QB market.

I'd rather just see Corral for 17 games. 

No more Darnold.

I don't have an issue with a cheap Baker or Jimmy G but solely on a one year deal. If possible, completely forbidden from resigning/extending them until April 2023.

    • Because being a pauper in the NFL is still making a king's ransom. NFL vet min is roughly 18x the median salary in the U.S.
    • At some point I sense it's gonna create some hate and locker room cancer between these cap hogs and the rest of the players. When the top 6 or 7 players take 80% of the cap, the other 40 plus guys are gonna get pissed off, especially when they're still only winning 5 or 6 games. Why put everything on the line to play with guys who are only in it for themselves? 
    • I am just spitballing here--let it play out and I will go to bed: Let's say Mahome's contract comes due and he insists on $100m per season.  Is there a team that would find the money to pay it?  Would KC? It was in 2015 (I think) when Cam was getting $20m and it was hard to grasp.  In the past decade, the price of a franchise QB has tripled.  Then the next QB bases his contract on the Mahomes deal.  The trend has been the last QB contract is the highest.  I see nothing to discourage that trend--Greed can destroy a league.  Personally, I don't watch baseball any more, and the NBA has a small group of about 8 teams that appear on national TV and they have players who make more than some eastern block countries.  Ticket prices go up---and we are headed for pay-per-view very soon across the board-
