I'm 100% against drafting a defensive player with the first pick and I don't care who it is. We are 4 years in and the talent surrounding Cam Newton has declined every single year. We are already paying him 14.5 in 2015 and that number will only go up. That's like buying a Lamborghini and putting Walmart tires on it. This poo has to stop.

The man stood on the damn podium and said he wanted a WR. He said at the pro bowl he has faith in management to surround him with weapons and we all know what he meant.

What have people been saying all offseason? Gettleman's main goal was to surround Cam Newton with weapons. You can not afford to keep telling Cam to fug off. When Cam doesn't trust his teammates to get the job done, he turns into bad Cam. I don't have faith in Byron Bell as our starting LT or Jerricho Cotchery as our #1 WR that's fuging insane.

We were the #2 defense and one of the worst passing offenses in the league, now we have a down graded wr crew, and a worse oline, and y'all are sitting here discussing take another defensive player?? fug all that noise.

Who's our starting LT? RT? RG?, you're comfortable with our WRs as is? Or are you just they type of guy the agrees with anything this organization does? It's ok to think for yourself. Deep down you know we have one of the worst offensive rosters if you take the qb out of it.

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
