Not sure how much our hit would be. I thought that the signing bonus prorates to Arizona's cap when they trade him (but I very well may be wrong)

Looks like $11m base salary this year and next and $12m the year after that

https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/arizona-cardinals/patrick-peterson-7720/

Cap hits would be

2018: $6.4M

2019: $11.25M

2020: $12.55M

We would pay 10/17 of his 2018 salary and all of his 2019 and 2020 salaries and workout/roster bonuses. Cards eat all the dead money.

Unless we can add a pass rusher, I see no upside in this team making a trade during the season.

I think Peterson would get at least a 2nd, maybe more, and that's too much IMO for a guy his age.

And Bradberry hasn't been awesome, but he's been ok considering who all he has had to go against.  Yesterday was they worst outing he has had this year, but I think he will bounce back.

And the Panthers need their draft capital for the potential and/or likely holes we are going to have next year at DE, C, and potentially OG and DB.

Hurney had a great draft this year, and he's going to need another one next year to keep us in playoff contention.

The Saints are willing to forego next year's draft and/or blow up their salary cap for a couple of years post-Brees for this year.  Let them.

I'm willing to look at this long-term and hope we can play our best come playoff time if we make it with who we got.

A second for Peterson would be a steal. And I would give it for him in a hot minute. What we can't do is give up a DB because we a just terrible behind our starters.

The Saints and Patriots are always willing to make these big trades happen. Watch out. 

One big issue is we don’t have the cap space this year, next year yes, just not right now. We would have to cut Tory Smith and a few others to make space.

Maybe, but there's still a lot of cap hit a team would be taking on for a guy that is nearing 30, so I think maybe that factors in.  But who knows, maybe they could get a 1st.

Certainly a 2nd plus something else, either player or draft pick

Steve Wilks: "We're not trading Patrick. That's out of the question."

Though I do think if we were willing to give up Bradberry, a young player he knows and likes, that might actually be much more enticing to him than what other teams will offer which is just draft picks.

I'm sure we could restructure some guys, add voidable guys, etc.  Saints will probably being paying Brees $20M+ for a couple of years after he retires the way they are handling the cap.

That being said, you are right about it not working now, and I don't think it makes sense here period given how much draft stock we have put into our secondary to give away more picks at this point in this season

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By panthers55 · Posted

      Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.

      The Rams wanted to trade up for Williams who they ended up within the end. They even told him that when they called him to let him know he is the pick. The other teams are only an assumption. Like the Cowboys, who took a guard. The truth is the team wanted to trade down first and foremost but couldn't get an offer the were happy with. They took McMillan because they felt he was bpa at 8 plain and simple.
