Eagles trade for Barner

yeah he was totally heartbroken having to take only a 7th round pick for a guy he's gonna cut in a few days..... lol

he probably laughed for 10 minutes straight after he got off the phone with the eagles FO

no GM is happy about taking a guy in the 6th R, paying him $600,000, giving him a year of NFL-caliber coaching, and then having to give him up for a 7th R pick (conditional on whether he makes the Eagles' 53)

yes, could say that at least it is better than taking a guy in the 6th R, paying him $600,000, giving him a year of NFL-caliber coaching, and then having to cut him and getting nothing...but getting nothing for him might be better than sending him to the team most likely to get the best out of him, especially since it is an NFC rival that we could very likely be battling for a playoff spot this season and years to come. Maybe better to just cut him for nothing and let him go through waivers and keep him away from the Eagles

Good for him and hope he does well. Didn't fit in the offense at all and trying to pound him up the middle was ridiculous. While we are sleeping,D.G is planning and scheming. Good Job "Padrino" ....now sit back and light a cigar.

Green Bay just traded Jerel Worthy for a 6th. Was a 2nd rd pick.

Its not a 6th downgraded... Its a guy who is going to be cut for a 7th.

Barner has proven after a year that he will have minimal impact in the Panthers system.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
