The Carolina Panthers are one of, if not the first team in line for the next available quarterback. You don’t think head coach Matt Rhule is really wanting to wager his job with Sam Darnold under center, do you?
And as of now, there’s an increasing feeling that—some way or somehow— Baker Mayfield lands in Charlotte. With the Cleveland Browns still looking to clear out the disgruntled passer to make the complete transition to Deshaun Watson, the Panthers can use a bit of their leverage to acquire the former No. 1 overall pick.
But, although they hold most of the cards in that potential deal, is Mayfield really the best fit for Carolina? Well, according to Touchdown Wire’s Mark Schofield, perhaps not.
