Panthers trading out of Round 1 more likely

Gettleman won't want to give up a 5th year option on a first round selection. It is like a free franchise tag. 

 

Another team would have to throw in their first for next year, and they would be idiots to do that for the 30th pick. But, that said.... Hurney. 

What are your feelings on this, out of curiosity?

 

CAR would love to move out of 30, trading w/team who wants a QB ahead of QB-needy DEN at 31.

The other side of the fifth year option argument is teams will pay more to get qbs on a fifth year option. Extra picks would help us have more leverage to move up in the second. Would you rather have our 1st rounder on a 5 year option and miss out on the shepards and whomever will be gone halfway through the second or the same first rounder early in the second and a player like sterling Shepard both on 4 year deals. We can't move high enough in the second now to get those players unless someone takes a tumble.

u know if I am gettlemen and lynch is there at 30, knowing cleveland, and other teams want him.  I call denver and say look, u want this guy or what?  Were gonna trade out to a qb team unless you swap spots for a 3rd or 4th. just see what happens.He gets to keep his 5th year option.

I like the way you think.  Have no idea if Elway would go for something like that, but it's a very interesting idea!

I'd make the deal with Cleveland but it would require them parting ways with the 2017 first they just got from Philly. 

No one would give up a 2017 1st to move from 32 to 30. That would be insane.

Cleveland now has an extra first next year.

There's a value to the fifth year option, but that value goes down for RBs, TEs and Ss who are the lowest paid.  If the Panthers pick a DT or DE, I would expect them to stay put, but if they are looking at the former, I could see them trading back since that's where the value is for those positions and it would give them the ability to trade up later.

Id rather try to get the Browns first round pick or next year 

#30, our 4th, and 5th, for Joe Thomas and their now disposable other 1st next year.  They'd have 3 in the first 32, add multiple moneyball picks and drop Thomas' salary and still have their assortment next year.  We, likewise, would strike gold both short and long term, and would still keep our 2nd and 3rd.

    • I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years. 
    • We need to hope this scenario plays our next week he fails with pressure…what that means with Evero, is beyond me
    • Woukd be a great addition You know the issues from my prespective, 2 things the Panthers must do 1. Edge or pass rushers or 2 oline or 3 oline or as Andy Reid says, when in doubt, draft a lineman it is time   That oline is troubling plus a small person at QB  they   1. Can do a lot better than mayes at center, 2. and lewis has had injuries all season. 3. Moton should not have  been resigned long term, 4. corbett is a shadow and will probably be released  5 and Christianson coming off Achilles   6 and the kicker, would be Ickey’s contract if they decide to keep him INMO rookie and contracts will be needed to offset all that
