We shoud trade with Chicago

We'll have to wait until the defensive line becomes as big of a problem as it was in the preseason before we do anything for it. They did some rotation on the line putting Brown and Johnson on the ends and putting Peppers and Brayton in the middle on a couple plays and had the usual DT rotation with Leonard, Lewis, and Hayden.

Chicago are not going to go for that if it was consider by the Panthers. And the only LB I would give away is Landon Johnson, but Chicago won't go for it & the fact is who would take Landon's spot? The only way we can get a DT & 1st round pick is by giving away several of our best players & that isn't a good idea. They would give us what you mention if it was Beason & no way in hell should we do that. Beason is one of our best LB ever & it's a shitty idea to give him away.

Actually, I think if we start Leonard, we'll be good at DT. The guy looked the part when I saw him in the game yesterday and even got a sack. He's got a big frame, but he's also got quite a motor for a guy that big. I don't think we need another DT.

WE HAVE BIGGER CONCERNS RIGHT NOW. lol

I think we done enough to fix up our defense. Its ONLY one problem left and thats the QB situation. Our GM is thinking short term instead of future. Its plenty options out there for the future

When you think future you give fans hope of what's going to come. There is no future in short term so after short term is up, ya ass is right back to square one

Our interior D actually looked good to me yesterday. It was their off-tackle stuff that got them the yardage. I know it's almost blasphemous to say it here on the huddle, but most of their big runs came from the over pursuit of our LB core. Thomas Davis looked good though. That whole swarm to the ball poo seems to be right up his alley.

    • Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
