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.

    • I agree, but I've already said that the players will definitely take more money up front because it's more security. But they want more guaranteed money and NFL FOs don't want to do that for several and various reasons, and that's what's at issue.  https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-second-round-rookies-finally-starting-to-sign-what-took-so-long-and-what-it-means-for-future-contracts/ It's a tug of war between teams and players, and, sure, paying a player a signing bonus may satisfy them, especially if--and sometimes "only if"--it ultimately leads to a guarantee of more of their contract, but the teams are on the hook for all of those guarantees when cap time comes, so if they guarantee more money, they're ultimately losing the contract game.
    • TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive. 
    • I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.
