Slowly, surely, the list of veteran quarterbacks available to the Carolina Panthers is going to start to build. Carson Palmer jumped on the list last week and jumped off it just as quickly Monday, or that is what the message is from the Senior Bowl workouts.
Palmer is unhappy in Cincinnati after the 4-12 seasons. He wants a change of scenery. He wants to be traded.
Mike Brown, the Bengals' owner, said he is not going to trade Palmer, who was the first overall selection in the 2003 draft.
Next? Half the people in Chicago want Jay Cutler to take a hike, but the Panthers have to be looking at veteran backup. Who knows, they might really like the Arkansas quarterback Ryan Mallett.

Carolina has the makings of a run game with some veteran offensive linemen and good backs. They cannot get better without better play from the quarterback and wide receivers.
If the Panthers do not improve these areas in the offseason they are going to be right back at 2-14.
