But, but, don't trade for Joe Thomas. He wouldn't of helped us.

Who from this years top 3 Panther draft picks would you trade for a Joe Thomas who will be 33 this football season?

This. I would've loved to have picked up Thomas but given his age and what it would've taken to get him, not sure it'd be worth it. We went with a younger OT instead who can hopefully help us out for more than just a season or two. Cleveland wasn't going to just give him away, especially since they're planning on trying to break in a 2nd round rookie QB.

We'll never know what could have been worked out. His age would have likely been a main point in his valuation, but the possibility and yesterday's ponderings are hardly worth discussing now in my opinion. Our eggs are in the Kalil basket now and/or with some luck, Moton's. I'm at peace with that for now. If Thomas was ever even seriously in discussion, I'm at peace with passing on him, irrespective of Kalil and our draft.

Why not trade for Julio Jones too? Or we could've traded for Calvin Johnson in 2015. Why stop there when we can trade for JJ Watt? And Richard Sherman too. Hell, why not Earl Thomas and Kam Chancellor to round out the big 3 back there?

    • I have started doing my research on these draft picks and I like this guy. But I'm am iffy on taking a TE in the first if isnt a flat out generational guy more importantly on this team where it's questionable we get the necessary impact out of him. I say if a top defensive guy at their position falls to 19th you jump on it and push this defense to an elite unit. The offense will do their part. 
    • fans view “box safety” with the same disdain they have when they hear “game manager” QB. but there’s a reason most 1st round safeties are “box safeties”-it’s a much longer list of requisite skills to be a good box safety than it is to be a guy whose only real responsibility is to not get beat over the top. Fans crave the ed reed type and as someone who has never been able to enjoy this franchise having a guy like that, I get the enthusiasm-but I’m not really prepared to spend a first round pick on a free safety. If it happens it’ll be fun, it’ll address a need with a good player and that’s well and good. But those guys end up walking after their first contract because their pedigree usually outpaces what their teams feel like they’re adding to their overall win total.
    • Its criminal that the upcoming season is mainly in the tiny hands of BY.  I still member the time I did a full turn, if you member his first off-season from that Panthers all-time worst team....... Answering questions at his first presser, he goes along the lines " I didn't do nothing, no weight room or throwing" " I needed to get away". I was fully out with him, the guy didn't even try to improve his football mind, body, strength, in the biggest joke of panther football. I could not believe it, what a leader or dare say "point guard"(lols @ NBA point guards as a ref)
