New Carolina Panthers quarterback Baker Mayfield was provided a lifeline last week when the Panthers traded for the former number one pick. Mayfield will be fighting for his career in Carolina in 2022 while also trying to save the career of his new head coach, Matt Rhule. Can Mayfield save Rhule's job?

The arrival of Mayfield puts into doubt the future of not only incumbent starting quarterback Sam Darnold but of rookie quarterback Matt Corral. Corral now will almost certainly use 2022 as a "redshirt" season before possibly competing for the job in 2023. Is this the best thing for Corral? Had the Panthers been able to trade for Mayfield the night they eventually traded up for Corral would he be a Panther?

Robbie Anderson has had an interesting offseason, from commenting on the Panthers quarterback situation via social media to contemplating retirement to recently calling out his doubters on Instagram Live. Anderson's past comments on the Panthers interest in Mayfield could possibly create an issue between him and his new signal-caller. Will the two get on the same page prior to training camp? How much of a concern are Mayfield's past feuds for Carolina?
