Panthers Postgame sadness

Best scenario (no DH is gone), AS is recovered enough to beat the Eagles and play the 1st (and honestly I expect only playoff game), then realises he's done what he set out to do when he started his road back and retire 'on his terms'. We then have the ability to bring in an FA who can play 1-2 years saving us from reaching in the draft or suffering a monster trade to get our guy. We draft a good prospect outside the 1st round who turns out to be Cousins+.

Bad scenario, AS holds on for another year, maybe backing up a draft pick that proves another lost cause and we're drafting QB yet again in 2022. Possible but if I'm RR I'm having a serious conversation with Alex about retiring, and maybe taking a coaching role instead of playing out his contract.

Worst scenario we give up most of our draft to pick higher and get another bust with no talent around him. I don't see this scenario happening with RR.

Any idea who the veteran QB FA's are? Wouldn't mind that route but that's a tough or very expensive way to find a starter.

I'd entertain Fitz if he actually leaves Miami. Bring back Kyle Allen maybe if we can't land a more solid interim starter. Not many on that list interest me much.

Good scenario if he's affordable (I doubt he will be and I reckon the Lions will retain him for at least 1 more year); get Stafford in a trade.
