Now I do not know whether I was then a head coach dreaming I was a Saints fan, or whether I am now a Saints fan, dreaming I am a head coach.
Yes thankfully our favorite team has no such looking suspensions for bad behavior for a variety of DUI, gun possessions, and assaults caught on film or a QB with a checkered history sexual assault.

the entire division is near or in bottom quadrant for playoff wins despite having a guaranteed entrant for 20 years

sad thing is most of the wins came in that time. everyone but Carolina sucked for a while after joining the league

Carolina entered the league in 95, nfc championship game in 96, didnt have another winning record until 2003.

My recall is that he was pretty good but they got rid of him anyway. Here is what Wikipedia says:

He finished the 2017 season with a career-high 135 combined tackles (97 solo), a career-high five sacks, and three pass deflections in 16 games and 16 starts.[17] His 135 combined tackles finished sixth in the league in 2017.[41] He earned an overall grade of 87.3 from Pro Football Focus and received the eighth highest among all qualified linebackers in 2017.[42][43]

It is.


He may suck, but none of the other options are inspiring and this also gives Carolina an opportunity to not throw Matt Corral in there right away.

Seems like a win win, unless people think they shouldn't have moved up to draft Corral in the first place.

It's a great trade for Rhule trying to save his job. It might hurt them long term unless Baker becomes a franchise QB for them, which I could actually see happening. But if he is just mediocre the Panthers probably still win enough games to knock themselves out of the top 10 to draft one of the top prospects. On paper, the QB class seems pretty strong for next year though.

The NFC is so lovely that the Panthers would have really needed to commit to a tank to get one of the top QBs. I’m also not really sold on next years class being as good as advertised. It’s Stroud and Young, who aren’t sure things, and then a bunch of other guys that people point to and say “surely one of them will have a good year and break out?”

Likely wins - Falcons x2, Lions, @Seahawks
Toss up - @Giants, Browns, Steelers
Likely Losses - Saints/Bucs x2, Cardinals, 49ers, @Rams, @Bengals, @Ravens, @Broncos

They kind of got a rough draw in terms of the NFC since they play the NFCW.

I wouldn’t pencil the Saints in as a likely loss for anyone. Hard to know what the team will look like under the first new coach in almost two decades. They could go 2-15. The two wins would be the Bucs, obviously.

Baker for a 5th and only $4M cap hit is a steal. I hope he balls out, but I’m guessing we are still in the market for a QB after this season.

How does the comp pick work for Baker? If he plays well enough to turn the 5th into a 4, would the Panthers get a pick back if he did walk next year?

I don't know what a QB has to do to get a 3rd round comp awarded to the team because that player always gets extended.

I don't know if that would happen to Baker in Carolina though

No one knows the actual formula, but Baker would likely yield a 3rd rounder. We know the formula is based on salary (compared to his QB peers), and snap count. Given the quality of free agent QBs on the market each year, Baker would likely be among the top available. He will probably play most of Carolina’s snaps too, since his competition is PJ Walker, Sam Darnold, and Matt Corral.

Panthers would need to lose more free agents than they pick up though.
