from derek anderson....maybe they might take him...i mean he wants to play in the 3-4 right and anderson likes to throw it deep which would open lanes for the monster running game we have....cause with jake back there safetys are coming up close to the line...think chad pennington last year with the jets

I don't think we can trade him, but cool first post!

Why can't we trade him? He's under contract with us. Does he have a no trade clause?

I wouldn't trade him to Cle. for Anderson. I'd trade him for their first round pick tho so we can draft one of the stud QBs coming out this year. Colt McCoy in a Panthers uniform sounds good to me...

this is a good idea. Let's trade one of the best DE's in the game for a one hit wonder that can't even beat out Brady Quinn. Personally, I think Anderson is a decent QB, but I would not give up someone like Peppers for him. That would be a very very bad deal for us. Plus, you still have the same issue.....who is going to pay him $17 millions. Ummm....no one and that is the problem.

I think we are extremely limited in our options with Peppers because of the way the franchise tag works. We missed the deadline to get him a long term contract, and no team (other than the Panthers) are going to want to spend that kind of money for a one year deal on him, he just isn't worth that much. Not to mention they only have to wait one year and see if he hits the market. Face it, we are stuck with him and his million dollar plus salary per game for an "impact" player that just doesn't bring that kind of impact to the game.

    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.  
    • Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
