Possible DE Trade?

We have an abundance of assests at DE. If someone is desperate for help, we could spin one of the DEs for a solid OL prospect. Keep in mind.

Hardy is likely gone at seasons end. Alexander is a FA? Or has one more year.

Nothing wrong with holding the cards.

Good to have assests either way.

 

Considering the QB's in our division, I would definitely do all I can to keep a strength a strength, we've seen our team with little pass rush...

No doubt. I like balance on both sides of the ball. Thus why I would support such a move.

I'm not completely against a trade if it gets us a quality tackle, but I think the possibility of that is low. We might get a backup, if that.

A legit backup OT is pretty high on my list lol.

If we are lucky cuts will provide us some depth and we can keep the DE group.

Rotating 6 DEs a game, that can play, could be a thing.

 

and with the chances hardy or charles gone i would like to hang out to all capable bodies

Yeah I think we will find a few guys after cuts that would be pretty close to the value of what we would get in a trade. We also should remember that we as Panthers fans put a certain value on our own players, and other GM's in the league may not necessarily share our opinions.

Keeping 6 defensive ends is unusual for sure, but the team is in an unusual position with the DE position next year. Hardy could be gone, Johnson is getting paid extravagantly, and Alexander will be a RFA. That leaves too many question marks to be unprepared for.

I understand that, but we're one knee injury away to Bell or Chandler from a real disaster.  

 

We still have cuts yet to happen. The team seems to have a knack for picking up a veteran guy after cuts to fill a position of need. We have done it at least the past 2 seasons and it has worked out pretty well (Dwan Edwards, Quintin Mikell)

      I will as soon as you withdraw your fandom from the Patriots. Informative threads are great but all of these estrogen and emotion driven threads you start are ridiculous.

      Canes vs Panthers 7pm

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      Will be there tonight and expect nothing from the Canes. They are soft and won't go after anyone, nor will they respond when, not if, Florida starts bullying them. Not to mention Freddie is in net. I fear this will be an ass-kicking.

      QB School - Bryce Young vs Bucs

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Is this not a bit contradictory?  Also surely if any of us are smart enough to evaluate what we're seeing in real time, a former NFL QB can at least manage the same.  Especially considering he's basing his analysis on hours (maybe generous?) of reviewing All-22 footage which he can play back over and over again, focusing each time on different position groups, match-ups, progressions, etc. which is simply impossible for a fan to fully assess in real time.  Unless you're actually at the game, we basically only get the QB/O-line in frame during the broadcast and even in that limited window of the field, there is simply too much happening.  I'm usually broadly focusing on Bryce, maybe peeping the footwork (or lack thereof) and just the overall pocket and whether there is any pressure coming.  I'm not able to watch every individual one-on-one o-line match-up on top of it to see who got beat, who didn't pick up a blitz, which o-lineman didn't shift to help double-team, or whatever else. I think the truth is somewhere in between (as is almost always the case).  Knowing the play call, audible, etc. is pretty important when judging individual performances, which is why we should always take PFF grades with a grain of salt.  But yeah we can also get a pretty good overall sense of how a player is performing just from watching the game on the couch on Sundays.  I still think there's a lot of value in a review video like this.  As long as you have the bare minimum media literacy to take the interesting insights while also acknowledging inherent biases from a video like this (i.e. obviously focusing on the good over the bad).
