The panthers are not going to tag him and he is not going to want to be tagged.  Rhule and co would most certainly give him a 5 year 150mil+ deal. 

You asked me what I would do.  I have you an easy answer and now you want to go and make assumptions.  There is no way to know what Rhule and co will do, and I'm pretty sure Rhule isn't calling all the shots anymore.

but but but we got better or something

YOUR biggest complaint is that we got better.  You are concerned we might extend Baker for having a good year.  My God you are just complaining and contradicting yourself while doing so.  Did we not get better?  Then Baker will be a FA next year and only cost us a late round pick.

We got marginally better compared to sam fuging darnold however its in the short term.  This doesnt do jack poo in regards to our long term goal and team building.   So what the fuging point is having Baker on a one year deal if we are going to let him walk?  This doesnt make sense but then again I am arguing with a dude that defend signing teddy and trading for Darnold. 

 

Baker is not a franchise qb and there are now 4 years worth of data to prove it.

Bro if that is balling out then we can agree to disagree.  He wasnt even in the top 15 qbs in that year

Agree to disagree. He wan games in 2020, winning a playoff game. This ain't your fantasy league Hoss, winning is the only stat that matters.

6-12-6-6

 

he is a below .500 qb with a stacked roster

Umm, Teddy did just that with Denver. He and Mayfield did that to go to a team as the starter to try and land a longer deal if they play well. It happens, we aren’t used to it because we typically pay way too much. Even this year our starter is on a $5M deal yet we are paying our QBs $24M.

Plus if we extend Baker off one year of play we just went through this whole "rebuild" without ever getting to Fitts philosophy of drafting a cheap QB to build around for a 4-5 year window. If we have no intentions of extending him it's also a waste of time, unless it shows Tepper that Rhule is the problem, not the 6 qb's he's trotted out on the field.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
