He's supposedly available and could help our SS deficiency. He has underperformed but is still young and the kind of SS that I would prefer this team to take. Don't know what it would cost us nor if TB would trade within the division.

Thoughts??

The Bucs are definitely selling low on him right now, so I wonder if a 3rd would be enough?  A 2nd, might be too much for me, but I honestly was a huuuuge fan of Barron when he came out and was hoping he would some how slip to us.  Safe to say, I would be uber-pissed right now if we had Barron instead of Kuechly.  However, I can easily see us drafting a SS with one of our first three picks in this year's draft, so why not get a young former top-10 pick with 2.5 years of experience.  I feel like Barron would thrive more in a swarming McDermott defense than the bendable version of the Tampa-2 that the Bucs run.

I would love to have him for a 5th rounder but i know that's not going to happen. When was the last time the Panthers traded for somebody? I say the chances for us doing anything is slim to none. The Panthers don't make moves like that. It's against JR religion.

they were LOL at you, not your post. :)

 

I normally cut to the chase in threads where everyone (who knows nothing) is complaining that we don't just go out there and sign a pro bowl OT.  You know, all it takes is the will to do it.

 

Actually, there is nobody worth any more than Bell out there waiting, so in a thread where we think Ron might actually be wanting a better OT, to me, it means we might have to make a trade.

 

Or, we can just piss and moan for 20 pages about why Gman is not signing all the 1st stringers hanging around outside the stadium with signs saying, "will start at OT for food"

At this point the Bucs could probably care less if he gets traded within the division as long as they get a good pick. I say put a 4th rounder on the table and see if they budge. His production over the past 2.5 years does not denote a 3rd rounder or higher. With that said, dude is a gamer and he would thrive in this defense.

      I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By frankw · Posted

      Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
