The Facts: The Browns, Jets, Vikings, Broncos, and Cardinals aren’t the only teams looking for a veteran quarterback. Per a league source, the Dolphins, Jaguars, and Panthers also are heavily interested in finding a veteran QB this offseason. To that end, Bridgewater should be in high demand between the Dolphins, Jaguars, and whichever teams lose out in the Cousins sweepstakes. Bridgewater won’t be handed a starting job, but he should command $12 million-$15 million per year on a one- or two-year prove-it deal.

Diehards Line: According to Globe staffer Ben Volin, the Panthers simply want an upgrade to Derek Anderson given the physical playing style of Cam Newton, who has only missed three games in seven seasons but is constantly banged up. The Jaguars gave Blake Bortles a new three-year contract, but it’s really only a two-year deal, and they know that Bortles could easily regress in 2018. They are in win-now mode and want someone who can push Bortles, or take over if Bortles falls off a cliff. And the Dolphins are in must-win mode after a disappointing 6-10 season. Ryan Tannehill has missed 19 games over the last two seasons, and does not have much support in the front office, though Adam Gase and the coaching staff do like him. We'll be watching for more in coming days.
