This wasn't a bad trade for someone that was going to cost us 

1. 8.4 mill next year.

2. Didn't scare anyone (DB's across the league say it). 

3. Always showed up out of shape. 

4. Doesn't bring anything that can't be replaced or is already replaceable.

We do get immediate return by him not bogging down the offense.   Think about it, short of blown coverage, he is never open.  Cam has to make lobbing or pin point passes to him every time.   It's like yeah he is big bodied by does Cam always have to make a high degree of difficulty throw all he time?  Say what you want about Ginn but he got separation (may end up dropping it).   Olsen gets separation.   Funchess (sometimes) get separation.  Mccafrey damn near always gets separation.   We will be a better by subtraction.   

Also Cam doesn't have to feel obligated to try and get him the ball like he does with KB.   When he was just throwing to whomever got open he was a much better QB.  We get immediate return by that in itself.

Remember when Getts drafted Kony Ealy?

Remember when he also didn't trade future picks for him and then, as mentioned, flopped him back some value?

Can't really say the same for a guy who literally used a 33rd overall pick on a D2 QB to convert to WR... something even fantasy football madden enthusiasts wouldn't dare do...

Sorry not enough sunshine to make this a good move...

      Two Athletic articles about QBs

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Bad teams with new coaches that want to make a splash with big passing games kill young QBs. Solid teams that can lean on the run and play-action give a chance for QBs fresh out of college to grow and learn how to dictate a game. A lot of these guys, and maybe even Bryce, aren't horrible but they are being asked to go in and be something unrealistic. They are expected to be able to put out raging dumpster fires after being handed a bucket and being told to go find some water.  And I think we see some of these guys who were labeled as busts eventually developing into serviceable, sometimes decent, sometimes quite good QBs when they land at a well-built team with good coaching and a solid identity. Mayfield, and Darnold are two that come to mind right now. And the two Joneses are certainly showing more in Indy and San Fran than they'd ever really shown before. But we're a shoddily built team that has been weakly coached into a softer style of football that puts crazy amounts of pressure on young QBs. Heck, even Andy Dalton with his experience really couldn't sustain any results here.

      Smitty goes off on CLT on WFNZ

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      1. Charlotte has been very good to Smitty and his comment is out of line.  2. XL is Smitty, just 180 degrees out of phase. He is the quintessential anti-Smith. Give 89 the ball and he will win a game for you. His high gear was terrifying and he was fearless. He was the bully on every snap he ever played here.  XL is Mr alligator arms who lives in fear of contact. He gets boxed out by guys he outweighs by 40 pounds and looks generally clueless.  Why he has chosen to defend someone he would have BBQ’ed as a teammate stumps me.

      Fake outrage from an entertainer... And yes he would have absolutely chewed him out on the field for that kind play.
