Trading for Smitty mid-season.

Before you totally flame me at least hear me out. I understand there were some reasons aside from the cap situation for Smitty being traded however...

 

This past year after week 8 the Kansas City Chiefs were 8-0 and the Atlanta Falcons were 3-4. The Chiefs tried to bring Gonzo home since the Falcons were an obvious train wreck and KC believed they had a shot at a ring. I believe they offered ATL a 6th round pick in exchange for Gonzo. Now Gonzo would have helped KC's offense tremendously IMO and Smitty's return may not have had the same impact as Gonzo returning.

 

However lets just say after week 8 we're 7-1 or 8-0 and making a huge run and the Ravens are having a down season. What would you say to giving up a 6th round pick to the Ravens for the possibility of giving Smitty a ring as well as adding another weapon to our offense? I know this is a big "what if" considering our WR corps may be having a great season up to that point. But I would just like to hear some of your thoughts on it because it has me thinking.

8-0 and we add a locker room distraction?

Last season half of the Huddle was screaming to trade for Josh Gordon. If our WR corps is struggling would you really be that opposed to trading for the greatest Panther of all time for a chance to get a ring?

if we're 8-0 with a struggling receiving corps then we're making up for it with team chemistry in some form.

 

you don't mess with 8-0

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      Any idea what happened to him at LSU? im reading that he was considered a 1st round pick in 2023, had an off 2024 season with only 4 sacks but was also on a horrible FSU team then went to LSU where he was supposed to be on an aggressive defense that should have given him a lot of sacks but he only ended up with one….   was he injured? Did the top SEC competition expose him? What happened? Cause this guy was considered a top prospect .

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.
