Should we trade for Calais Campbell?

Here is an article from Catscratch that makes perfect sense. I think back to the Superbowl run, and how Jared Allen helped this team apply pressure and he was picked up by a trade. The defense was awesome with Allen, Short, and Norman. Our window is somewhat closing so should the panthers make a play for a top-tier DE with experience?

I mean, it would make sense. The only issue I see is that it's another 30+ year old DL. A trade for Campbell is still just a short-term band-aid. We desperately need young DL talent. Those Ealy and Butler busts sting.

And Hall

Jury is still out on Haynes

Laugh if you want, but I think Tepper could be watching the Huddle. I mean he did put the logo midfield to satisfy the Huddle faithful. What's the chance that he is reading this forum and telling Hurney to go make the deal now! LOL. Maybe the Huddle could will the trade into existence? LOL

To Mr Tepper.  Please.  Pretty please.  With sugar on top.

Who say Jacksonville is even looking to have a firesale?  Didnt they just sign him last season?  Although it would be awesome, this one is a stretch for me.

Of course it is.  There’s only one “sane” solution right now at DE to significantly aid our Super Bowl odds without giving up a TON for an old guy or a young bust.  No one gives away one for free, even a guy that’s two years older than Hardy in Campbell.

    • That is probably a good point that I did not consider. It doesn’t force their hand financially, to declare early. 
    • Realistically he's probably not still going to be under contract when hes good to go again? Unfortunately for him you cant sign him for more than a small one year deal until he can prove hes still a good player... that might not happen.  I think hes played his last down as a panther.
    • It has been going down that backyard ball road with the QBs a long time. It also has made it more difficult to evaluate OL for the pro game.    I agree though that the NIL is making it even worse. Then they get in the league and suck, coaches get fired. Here comes a new system every year for some of them, same as you are talking about in college.    Unfortunately, IMO, the league has responded by taking the path of least resistance offensively.    The only saving grace for the QB problem we identified here is the slotted salaries out of the draft. No more 100 million rookie deals. Which today would be 250 million and even more.  So to me, paying a player that doesn’t bring success in the first two or three years, you can’t do it. Better to take another shot in the draft or reclaim someone else's failure. Given that all staffs are not equal. Look what Shanahan did with Purdy for instance. And their getting off of Lance quickly.    In theory if Canales is a QB whisperer type, which we don’t know he isn’t at least to a higher degree than many (not including the established masters) we should be quicker on the trigger with these QBs. If Bryce doesn’t show out next year we really need to hit the reset.
