Hypothetical - Panthers trade 5th to Cleveland for Johnny Manziel

You guys are brutal. People get too wrapped up in the moment, which is why he was drafted where he was to begin with. But it also works the other way around. Many mocks one year ago had him as a top 5 overall pick. I have never been a fan and a 5th round pick (30 "points" on the trade value chart) is absurd, but a 7th (ONE measly point on the trade value chart) is worth a chance on a guy with his skill set to be a backup. This franchise drafted Stefan LeFors in the 4th for goodness sake.

I would love this. We need that Johnny Football swag on the sideline. Would love to see Johnny throwing up some cash money while Cam is scoring TD's. The thought of boring old white guys cringing in the their club seats at BOA would make the trade worth it in and of itself. 

 

Plus the Charlotte's night life needs a guy like Johnny to mix things up. 

 

This is all of course contingent on him not getting sober. If he is taking his sobriety remotely seriously I wouldn't trade a 5th, I'd give a 7th tops.

    • It’ll be interesting to see how the board falls I completely agree with you on TE for us The safety from Oregon would be the cherry on top for Evero’s defense/scheme.  If a OL’men is there that you love it would be very hard to pass up. This fan base seems to just see Walker as a stop gap but I wouldn’t be so sure. He’s the same age as Ekwonu. He’s had a much more impressive career arc/progression than Icky has. He’s the better pass protector. As far as I see it if Walker has a good year I’d bring him back over Icky. Ekwonu isn’t some elite franchise LT. Playing next to Lewis is going to be great for Walker much like it has been for Icky. We definitely need to get younger/cheaper on the OL though so for this reason alone it’s still top of my list come round 1 if board falls this way  Could also use another corner with Mike Jackson’s deal up after this season and needing a nickel but Corey Thornton looked really good in that role in the limited time we got to see him. However he’s coming off an achillies injury and you never know with those.  Then as mentioned above we do still have a need at WR. As far as “weapons” go it’s kind of a 2 man show with Tmac and Coker and neither is a burner. If Jordan Tyson is there at 19 and we can have a young WR group locked up for cheap that’s a huge advantage cap wise  And don’t forget linebacker. That clip in Devin’s Lloyd blueprint they used from Evero saying they need more intelligence there could’ve been left out for Wallace’s sake but it’s true. Wallace is lost in coverage. Pair a smart linebacker with Lloyd and that’s a group with Wallace and Cherelus being depth 
    • The fact that this is even a discussion is a testament of the level of front office badassery that's going on. 
    • Not always. LT was for the Giants. So was Ray Lewis. Von Miller was moreso than Manning his final year in the season that shall not be named. It's usually the QB, but not always.
