People get paid to write three paragraphs of opinion that 1) is pure speculation and 2) doesn't provide any detailed supporting evidence for the assertion? I'm in the wrong line of work.

He may be right or he may be wrong, but how about a breakdown of our available assets and analysis of why they wouldn't be enough?  We have plenty in the coffer should we decide to use them.  Just because Miami or some other team has more doesn't mean they are willing to use them all.  

You could be right there, yet a team like the Panthers that doesn't have nearly the resources are going to actually pull off the deal?

Rodgers won his super bowl outside of his Rookie contract and the Packers drafted a 1st round bust in Harrell in 2007 didn't have a 1st round pick in 2008 and Rodgers signed his mega deal in 2010. Then drafted another bust in 2011.

So what I am seeing is.... The Packers spent a shitload of money on QB, and won a super bowl with a bust and no first round pick. The proceeded to bust on the next year's pick.

So?  That's their problem.  Are you suggesting that because they missed on the last few QBs that we don't try to draft one because we are sure to miss as well?

This alone says you are more invested in his stardom than the Panthers.

Well, we’re likely giving up a first next year anyway to go get a college qb that May or may not work out. So if you’re asking me would I be in favor of throwing in an extra first to get a proven commodity, then that answer is a resounding yes. 
 

seems like common sense to me. Unfortunately, those three picks wouldn’t be enough.

I don't care if this ends up looking like the Herschel Walker or James Harden trades.  Just get it done.  I don't care which players or picks go in, CMC/Burns/Chinn whoever, get it done. A 25 year old all-pro HOF track QB goes on the trade market once a decade at most, and more likely once a generation.

Im suggesting that a franchise can win a super bowl without 2 first rounds picks and an all star expensive QB. it's how you assemble the roster around them.

Why would Watson want to come here he wants to leave the Texans because he wants to win , watsons not coming here so stop with all the hype

We are on his list for the no trade clause. Ask Watson. Maybe he misses the area? or maybe he hears Rhule is a legit coach? or he sees all of the weapons on the offensive side of the ball. Or he sees a division with 3 aging qbs and that the division is going to be wide open.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      Not totally inaccurate, haha Except that kid wasn't as excited as I was.  I was yelling louder, and more, and running around the room in circles until I almost passed out from exhausting and was trying to catch my breath for a good 10 minutes because I'm way too old to be doing that, LOLOL Oh, and I tweaked a muscle in my shoulder from all the punching the air I was doing too. For as awesome as that pick was for me, it really screwed me up for a few days between my shoulder and lost voice (Wrexham securing back-to-back-to-back promotions Saturday afternoon contributed to that though too).

      Getting Pierce jr isn’t forfeiting the pick they just had 2 1sts this year.

      Full disclosure and the real reason.... I'll be seeing my Nephew in basically one month from today, and while I've gotten him stuff from my other teams the past year, I hadn't been willing to saddle him with Panthers stuff yet, that's now changed lol. So if the jersey would get to me before I see him, I'd get that and him his first Panthers onesie/shirt so I can get a picture of us together in them. If it wouldn't get to me by then, I'd just wait to get the one I prefer.  So yea, my rush is really just about trying to get a picture of myself in it with my Nephew in Panthers gear too.
