Developing Trade pending with Raiders

Developing Story - Panthers have reached out to the raiders and made an offer for Crabtree. They have offered a a 7th this year or a conditional 7th for him that could turn into a 6th in 2019 , since they may have to cut him to sign Jordy Nelson. Panthers don't want to get into a bidding war but would like to secure his services if possible. My friend is an intern at the panthers office and this is what he is hearing in the building, but take for what it worth. I have not link to verify. Apparently is the war room they have a board with certain players names and values and who they would like to target via trade or FA signing. No picture taking is allowed of the board i already asked.

    • I always wonder how these guys get hurt in the offseason, your back didn't hurt in January?
    • I am not one who gets behind the idea of "unlocking" a player.  Did Barry Sanders need much in the way of blocking to "unlock" him?  I still maintain that Sanders career was far more impressive than Emmit Smith's.  Did Larry Fitzgerald need an elite QB to "unlock" him?  Antonio Gates?  Etc. Great players play well if you care to watch with an objective eye. Now, some players work better in a given system.  I do see that.  A player who is playing well can be made to look better by sticking him in a better / more tailored system.  I'm not sure Brock Purdy looks like a franchise guy in another system - but I would say the chances are probably 50/50.  He's a good player, you could see it in any system, but in THAT system he's great. But for our specific example - and I hate to use TB12 but it's the easiest to see - you need look no further than the NE dynasty.  Did Brady need Randy Moss to "unlock" him?  No, of course not.  Brady was just a great player, in a well designed system. Up until the end of the year last year, we hadn't seen anything resembling greatness from Bryce Young.  I hope that he continues to improve.  I hope he turns into our next franchise QB.  But it's on his shoulders.  If TMac is part of that, great.  If TMac flops, it should not affect an evaluation of BY. BY doesn't need to be unlocked.  He needs to perform.
    • nothing dishonest in pointing out that Bryce Young had the highest off target rate of any passer in the NFL last year.   PFF mentions it.  Others have mentioned.  I have pulled it from other sources.  That's sort of a giant red flag of concern.    Nothing dishonest about saying we were getting below average offensive production from the passing O as a whole on the season and post benching.  All of that essentially gets dismissed as not actually mattering.....and what really matters is just PFF's view.  And their definition of big time throws, how they view/score incompletions, etc in a small window, in one area of the field.   Wanting the convo to just be about PFF IMO is the intellectually dishonest part.  I mean, what is the actual great insult I am making about Bryce Young?  I said cherry picking a small amount of deep throws.   The way some here paint it, Bryce was lighting people up downfield at a high rate (volume) vs the league.  Which he wasn't.  Bryce improved.  For that, I am happy.  But folks just running crazy far with it.  Where are at the stage now where if you argue Bryce Young isn't close to a top 10 QB.....that somehow brings the pitchforks out.  Which is crazy.  If an argument can't be presented without PFF....then it's not much of an argument IMO.
