2020 Fantasy Outlook
After backing up Drew Brees in New Orleans for two years, Bridgewater is off to Carolina with a three-year, $63 million contract ($33 million guaranteed). Bridgewater went 5-0 starting for an injured Brees last season, completing 69.7 percent of his passes in those games with nine TDs and two interceptions. Like his mentor, he benefited from a short passing game that emphasized quick slants and the like, rarely asking him to challenge defenses deep - just 13 passes longer than 20 yards, 6.6 percent of his 196 attempts. Bridgewater's bad-pass percentage was 14.3, third lowest in the league among QBs with at least 175 attempts (Brees was first at 14.0), but his average depth of target was a mere 6.0 yards, lowest in the NFL. The Panthers are sure to ask more of Bridgewater, especially considering their weapons. Third-year WR D.J. Moore is coming off a breakout season, Curtis Samuel has 4.31 speed and the team signed another speedy wideout in Robby Anderson. And then, of course, there's Christian McCaffrey out of the backfield. Bridgewater will be reunited with Joe Brady, Carolina's offensive coordinator who was an offensive assistant in New Orleans in 2018. Last season, Brady was the passing game coordinator for national collegiate champion LSU, which no one would confuse with a dink-and-dunk offense. And new head coach Matt Rhule remade an offensive line that gave up a league-high 58 sacks last year, acquiring Russell Okung, John Miller and Michael Schofield, upgrades all. Bridgewater better warm up his arm. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS

Given permission to seek trade
The Panthers are allowing Bridgewater to talk with other teams to facilitate a potential trade, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The Sam Darnold trade didn't remove all of Bridgewater's leverage, as he still has a $10 million guarantee on his $17 million base salary for 2021. That means there's some chance he sticks around in Carolina, even if it's ultimately as a backup to Darnold. The Panthers seemingly prefer to trade Bridgewater, but that might be easier said than done at this point in the offseason.

Chase Edmonds sits atop the Cardinals' depth chart a month into the 2021 league year, hoping his starting job will survive the upcoming draft.

With Big Ben officially staying in Pittsburgh and JuJu Smith-Schuster trending the other direction, Diontae Johnson should see a boatload of short targets in 2021.

Trevor Lawrence may be a rookie but his upside is substantial and his starting role is all but assured, leading the writer to select Lawrence as his QB2 in the third round.

The severe non-contact knee injury that Bridgewater suffered during training camp in 2016 effectively ended his tenure as the Vikings' starting quarterback, but he's since re-emerged as one of the NFL's more well-regarded backups. As a first-time free agent in 2018, Bridgewater settled for a one-year deal with the Jets, who dealt him to the Saints at the end of the preseason after drafting franchise quarterback Sam Darnold. With the durable Drew Brees overseeing another productive New Orleans offense, Bridgewater didn't see any extended action until Week 17 against Carolina. Starting that game for a resting Brees, Bridgewater completed 14 of 22 passes for 118 yards, one touchdown and an interception while working almost exclusively with backup players. Bridgewater drew plenty of interest upon hitting the open market again this past offseason, but ultimately passed up a potential starting opportunity in Miami to re-sign with the Saints. He'll again rank as little more than a quality insurance option behind Brees, but another year under Sean Payton's tutelage could make Bridgewater the frontrunner to succeed Brees if the 40-year-old calls it quits after the season.
