He's young, with proper coaching I think he can become a good QB.Darnold blows, typical Panthers trade.
So basically slightly better than Bridgewater but nowhere near good enough to win anything relevant. Seems about right.He's young, with proper coaching I think he can become a good QB.
Probably not great or elite though.
I'd be a bit surprised since they already picked up Darnold's 5th-year option (I know there are outs if he doesn't get injured).Good job by Douglas, I never thought that a 1st round pick was a possible return for Darnold.
It wouldn't surprise me if Carolina still picked a QB at 8 (if one is available). Rhule went all Defense in the draft last year and the offense has the weapons. They were competitive all year in 2020 without CMC and Teddy two gloves doing the bare minimum.

Yeah, real good job by Douglas. Assuming Panthers finish with around the 10th worst record next season the NFL trade point value would be ~600 points or equivalent to the 32ndOA, but for a team like the Jets multiple picks make more sense.Good job by Douglas, I never thought that a 1st round pick was a possible return for Darnold.

They also have so much draft capital this year and only so many roster spots it makes sense to push the best pick into 2022.Yeah, real good job by Douglas.

The Panthers need to pick-up Darnold's 5th year option by May 3, they definitely will, and be doing so I doubt they draft another QB.
i'd guess they trade teddySo, do you think we will see a Darnold-Bridgewater tandem in Carolina, or another trade (or release) is incoming for Teddy Bridgewater?
I like the trade for both sides. Need to give Darnold more weapons. Get him Pitts or one of the top-3 WRs.
Don't think they can drop too far back if they still like Slater. If QBs to top 3, and you still have Fields on the board, I think he goes, along with Sewell, Pitts, Chase in the top 7. If those guys are all off the board then it's Mac Jones and the Bama WR with Slater in the mix for the next pick.Ah, didn't know that part so nevermind. So yeah, there draft will most likely be:
1. Pitts
2. One of the WRs to fill the loss of Curtis Samuel
3. Trade back for Slater
4. Defense BPA
