  2. One move I argued Carolina should have made in the offseason, and still makes sense, is trading for DeAndre Hopkins. Panthers fans railed against this idea in the offseason, but the first seven weeks of the season have explained why it makes sense. No, Hopkins doesn’t make sense to pair with Young as a receiver-quarterback connection that can grow together and dominate the league for a decade. Sometimes, you just need viability while your signal-caller develops. Andy Dalton showed how far away Young is from that when he came in and everything in the Panthers' offense worked better. Dalton has 15 years of veteran experience to draw upon to counter the disadvantages he’s dealing with in terms of supporting cast. Young doesn’t. Hopkins would bring value to Young even as a short-term rental or a bridge option. — just somebody to throw to he can have confidence in. Even if this was definitively a worse move for the Panthers now than it would have been in the offseason — when they didn’t have to give up any trade collateral — that isn't a reason to prevent them from going for it. The original opportunity is gone, but there is no sense in passing up the deal the second time around when it would still benefit the team. There is a positive to doing it this way as well, though. While Carolina would now need to offer a draft pick to Tennessee to get Hopkins, they don’t have to pay him the full contract value that they would have had they signed him as a free agent. The Titans have already paid Hopkins a near-$10 million signing bonus, and he is essentially playing this season for the veteran minimum in salary. One reason teams balked at the prospect of signing Hopkins in the offseason was the cost, and the Titans solved that problem for any team interested in trading for him now. The question for those teams becomes: Is Hopkins, playing for the veteran minimum in salary cost, worth more than the draft pick needed to give up to acquire him? For Carolina especially, the answer is yes. https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-carolina-panthers-trade-deandre-hopkins-tennessee-titans
  3. Ian Thomas and Giovanni Ricci are injured, Stephen Sullivan was out today due to illness. We only have 2 healthy TE's Matthews is simply being brought in the event Sullivan isn't healthy enough to play this week.
  4. PREDICTION: Panthers will make no trades The Huddle should prepare themselves to be disappointed and pissed
  5. Good to hear, this is absolutely the correct decision.

  14. CAROLINA PANTHERS CB DONTE JACKSON → DETROIT LIONS Trade compensation: 2024 fourth-round pick, 2025 sixth-round pick Contract acquired: Two years, $12,222,500 ($600,000 guaranteed) Carolina restructured Jackson’s deal this offseason, converting $7,642,500 in salary into a bonus to drop his 2023 salary down to the minimum. The Panthers are dealing with a myriad of secondary injuries, including to 2021 eighth-overall pick cornerback Jaycee Horn, but Jackson’s name has come up as a potential trade piece for the only remaining winless team in the NFL. Jackson has played in various different schemes over the past few seasons and should be able to adapt to Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn’s scheme, which has also continued to evolve around the talent in Detroit. Jackson has earned coverage grades between 55.0 and 70.0 in six straight seasons, a consistent presence in the secondary. Fellow Panthers cornerback and former top-10 pick C.J. Henderson is also in a contract year and could be moved for cheap. There is the issue of a lack of depth at outside cornerback in Carolina, but they could find replacements to finish out the season and build around Horn moving forward. https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-10-more-trades-nfl-teams-should-make-2023-trade-deadline
  15. Prediction: we will trade no one, Terrace Marshall will be released and will Justin Houston, DJ Johnson will end the season as the starter.
  16. As much as they’d like to keep pass rusher Brian Burns long term, sources familiar with team owner David Tepper have told Yahoo Sports that the priority in the organization in the near-term is to use assets to help fortify the future of quarterback Bryce Young. What they’d like to do is acquire a nice young offensive piece to help Young (preferably a skill position player). That is going to come with cost. And that cost is listening to offers on Burns, who will carry a significant $11 million in salary cap load to any team that acquires him, as well as necessitating a contract extension. - Yahoo Sports senior NFL reporter Charles Robinson
  17. Chinn suffered a quad injury that could complicate his trade market should the Panthers choose to try and move him, but it doesn’t preclude a deal from getting done. He’ll be back before the end of the season off an injury that ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports will take up to six weeks to heal. The injury is non-surgical, and Chinn is considered a fast healer. There’s interest in Chinn, who is in a contract year and only played 28 snaps the past two weeks. He wants to play. - ESPN senior NFL insider Jeremy Fowler
  18. It was a back injury so I'm pretty sure they've shut him down he's out forever
  19. Dallas Cowboys offer a 4th rounder you trade his ass
  20. This is Fitterer’s last desperate attempt to get something anything in return and it’s not going to work. The good teams know Terrace is a project at best and won’t immediately help them The bad teams that might take a shot at him will prob just wait until he gets cut and pick him up on waivers
