What the hell? This makes no sense at all, dude was a 2nd team all-pro last year and is a beast. They have a lot of guys they'd have to let walk soon because of the cap but why not keep him this season and get the same 3rd round comp pick the next year?

I don't really get it at all to be honest unless he did something to piss Belichick off

And we haven't traded our comp pick because....?

In all seriousness, bizarre move at best without knowing the context, when you think about it maybe we will see some change in philosophy moving forward.

Getts has set the expectation for draft day trade ups, (I don't recall any trading down) so perhaps this is apart of our approach in the next draft, having more fuel to trade up is a good thing.

I think this up and coming draft played a role. This draft is loaded with talent. I also believe this draft played a role for releasing Josh Norman.

Railroading yourself into not being able to sign quality free agents so you can pick up a sweet, sweet late round pick a couple years from now isn't really something successful teams hungrily chase after.

They don't have the cap room to go out and sign any quality free agents anyways, otherwise they'd have just put the money towards Collins and Chandler Jones before trading him. They're contenders this year and let their best defensive player go for literally nothing.

      Panthers 2026 schedule

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      In May of 2026, it looks like a challenging schedule...and it probably is.  I rarely listen to the "strength of schedule" conversations that light up social media this time of year. Each year teams improve and decline. I think there's chunks of the year we need to take care of business and the week 5 bye is not desired.  I do think if we don't hit the bye week at 3-1, it's going to be a major uphill battle given the schedule in front of us. This season falls on three people, regardless of schedule strength: Canales, Bryce, Evero.  Canales: Finally can truly coach all aspects of the team and not focus with gameday prep for OC duties anymore. He drives the bus and needs to get these guys in position to win each week. There's no way vets come in and put it on the line every week to watch our QB sh!t the bed (See: SF game last year). Bryce: Despite everyone's obsession with thinking Bryce is a guaranteed extension, I think this year will truly be his "prove it" year. If he comes out the way he has the past three years, I really don't see how vets and coaches can continue to put him under center long-term. He might play out that fifth year as the starter, but I think next offseason his long-term replacement is found. I also think there's no excuses with the weapons and commitment we've made on offense to insulate him with every possible weapon.  Evero: Best personnel he's had since he's been here...no excuses. Figure out how to blitz effectively. Figure out how to use CBs whose strengths are press/man. Figure out how to utilize a talented front-7 to get the hell of the field. Outside of FS and maybe....maybe ILB, there are few weaknesses on this unit.

      Canales can never get his teams ready in the first week of the season so far. Hope that changes or Ben Johnson is going to take his azz to school.
