Samuel on the move? Philly rumors?

If the Panthers were to listen to trade offers, The Athletic's Sheil Kapadia speculates the Philadelphia Eagles would be among the most likely suitors. The Eagles are a sure bet to add at least one WR in the 2020 draft, but they steered clear of older veterans at the position in free agency and would seemingly sign off on Samuel's age and speed. The Panthers, he suggested, could be enticed with a package involving both picks and players -- like former second-round cornerback Sidney Jones.

Thoughts?

I think they are just playing both sides of the Person speculation to make two different stories to fill space. "He's not on the trading block unless someone offers a lot." First a story about him not being up for trade then one to discuss the "but if" all from the same Joe person statement.

I love samuel. He can be used in a number of ways out the backfield reverses sweeps and short pass deep passes yac. I hope we dont trade him seeing as he is one of my current favorite players but nothing would surprise me at this point. I wouldn't consider moving him for less than the 2 we got him for.

I agree, but the $3m we signed Roberts to play WR4 though? That's what I'm confused about.

If we decide to move on, I get it. But, I'd much rather see what he could do in Brady's offense than trade him for what we could likely get for him in the trade market considering the incoming WR class. If you're a team, what would you realistically be willing to part with for him? I'm thinking maybe a 4th or 5th? Anything more and I think I'd roll my dice on heading into this draft needing to add a WR.

I think someone would have to really wow us with a trade offer or we would have to get a guy early on in the draft. Maybe both.
 

We aren’t shopping him. Look at Brady’s offense. He wants lots of WRS running layers all over the field. I think Samuel is very much a part of that plan right now.

That was stupid. Again, bidding against ourselves when everyone else was waiting for a historically great WR class.

Exactly. Then you get the rookie contract and the possibility that you strike it right and end up with someone that has more upside than Curtis. Doesnt make sense unless we are also drafting a WR and just want to scrap him for an extra pick. We don’t really have the luxury to spend picks like that.

    • I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.
    • Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.
    • Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
