Jamal Adams, for a 1st and 18-20 million a year, who says yes?

We need to be more realistic in these threads.

People need to realize you don't trade for a player, you trade for their contract.  Basically whoever trades for Adams is going to be trading for the chance to pay him 18-20 million a year.  Also I think he gets a first when its all said it done.  Under that criteria how many people say yet?

Personally I think he is one of the better defensive players in the league, and for some teams I wouldn't be opposed to giving up a first, I just don't think that is where we are at currently.

I mean...do you want us to end up in permanent franchise purgatory?

The original thread was made with no regard for the supposed teams Adams said he wanted to play for (not us), and the thought that the cap very well may go down next year.  The latter, could lead to some kind of purge of talent from all over the league to get under the cap.  The next couple of months could force teams to rethink A LOT about the next few years, and trading draft capital AND big money for a guy who may not re-sign here? When there's still a chance this season doesn't happen? Dumb.

Really needed another thread for this? Could have just responded in the other one how you feel.  But I guess that wouldn't give you enough attention.  As others have said, trading picks right now would be foolish

Adams is the only one who says yes. He gets paid more than top CBs as a safety, I’m sure he’d take that from any team in the league in a heartbeat.
 

Panthers aren’t trading their 1st unless it’s for a superstar under team control for several years at a position of high importance (and those guys get way more than a 1st).


Jets would want more—at least a 1st and 2nd, probably two 1sts.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
