What do we need? Trade deadline talk.....

   With the trade deadline less than 3 weeks away, what(if any) position(s) do you feel need addressed? Or certain players that might be available you would like to see us make a play for. 

   I would like to see a solid CB option added. And/or a Safety with range to play single high FS. An injury at CB could be a disaster. And that’s with Cap playing subpar as it is. Don’t need an All-Pro just a backup plan and depth. Someone like the player who was signed for that role in Cockrell. 

    And neither Reid nor Adams is effective in space. And I don’t see Gaulden as that guy yet. 

   I’d mention OT, but if there were any available at a reasonable price, we probably would have made a move before. And they are playing very well.

Would love a spark at DE...but not sure what would be out there thats worth trading for right now.  Someone that can disrupt the QB to help out our Defense which right now is struggling. 

In a madden-like world id suggest Clowney as he’s in the last year of his deal and the Texans aren’t going to be competing this season anyways but that’s a dream.

Also a corner to start opposite of Bradberry to move Jackson into the slot would be nice.

  Agreed. But any true upgrade would be expensive I’m sure. But I would love to hear some options. Also hoping JPep is just rounding into shape. 

  This is where the “idea” of a pass-rushing EDGE option was solid. 10-15 snaps in passing situations with no responsibility but get the QB. Just draft a full-grown one instead of an undersized LB. 

  Obada progressing would be a helpful “answer on the roster” moment. Just don’t know yet.

Going to throw out a name. It's not likely but it's possible and especially given our trade history. 

Shaq Lawson. Beane didn't draft him and he hasn't lived up to his status. Wouldn't give up anything more than a 4th though.

      Meh… I wish there was a network that has all sports.  This thing will fail.

      If you could add one player from any team in the NFL to the 2025 Panthers to make them Super Bowl contenders, who would it be?

      Neither Barkley nor even a healthy CMC would move the needle much for us. Those are guys that impact teams that already have impressive overall offenses and defenses, so they can perform the complimentary roles that make them actually valuable. We should know that specifically because CMC almost never moved the needle on bad Panthers team after bad Panthers team. Ask Giants fans about that with Saquon.

      I would generally disagree. You see a lot more load management than previously but that is because being healthy in the playoffs is such a key factor. Different philosophies in that regard than previous generations.  Baseball really doesn't matter until at least halfway through the season. I am not gonna say they don't play hard but the physical demands are infinitesimal in the MLB in comparison to basically any other major pro sport.  People dislike all the shooting these days but that's a direct correlation with how much the overall skill level of the average NBA player has drastically risen over the past 15ish years. There are other aggravating factors, certainly, but that is the biggest one in terms of playing style differences. So many of the guys from the 80's and 90's wouldn't even be able to play in the modern NBA at all. The biggest problem the NBA has with the American market(they are the only US sport that has any real international appeal or interest, minus the NHL) is that they are so steadily corrupt and fix the systems against the small market teams. Well, you eventually lose a big chunk of the league viewership/potential viewership in the process. Take the very obviously fixed NBA draft lotteries. Superstar and upper tier star players rarely want to play for small market teams, nor can they usually afford to pay them. So how do you expect them to possibly compete in that environment?
