How about J.J. Watt as a Panther?

How insane would our defense be with a healthy J.J. Watt.

I don't think we have anything to really offer them but the thought of Houston trading him is insane. 

Why not dream,  What would you give up?

I definitely give up our 1st rounder for him, providing he passes a physical.    I am sure they would want more than just a 1st rounder.

Not sure if that trade would make any sense for Houston. Yeah, they get a dominant TE but a dominant TE who hasn't played a full 16 game season since 2011 and a dominant TE still doesn't do them a lot of good without a QB. Might as well add the most dominant defensive player in the NFL back to an already dominant defense. Watt had been very reliable up until this season. I get the trade for NE. They just won a SB without Gronk and that offense will keep humming along without Gronk, but Watt would be a game changer for their D.

As for us? Hell yeah, I'd love to have Watt! But what would we offer? Maybe Houston has a QB they covet at #8? #8 for JJ Watt... yeah, I'd do it as long as the medicals checked out.

Watt is such a physical player that his body has taken such a beating that I doubt he will have more than a few product years left. His best years are behind him and  will not be as good as he has shown or as healthy. He certainly will not be worth his contract.

I have a feeling that Watt will be retired due to recurring back issues in the next year or two. His back will continue to get worse and worse unfortunately. Once you have surgery on a disc it's only a matter of time until it goes out again....And he's had 2 surgeries on the same level in the last year. One more and he's likely done.

(AP) — It had been a while since the Carolina Hurricanes had finished practice, with players coming and going from the locker room. Yet Logan Stankoven was still on the ice, leaving a crowd of reporters patiently waiting at his locker. Such is the dynamic for the 23-year-old as the Eastern Conference's top seed heads into Round 2 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs to face the Philadelphia Flyers. Stankoven has been rolling at nearly a point-per-game pace going back to mid-March, including scoring in every game of Carolina's first-round sweep of Ottawa. Beyond the immediacy of that spotlight, though, is the other piece of Stankoven's story: the Hurricanes are betting he can keep growing into the role as second-line center, coming after spending multiple seasons searching for an answer there.
