But he gets to choose where he goes. If he wants the Carolina  then we will get him. It isn’t like the Texans hold all the cards. 

That's not really true.

He can veto trades, yes, but the Texans aren't just going to give him away for less either.

You also have to ask yourself what Watson wants. Right now he's more likely to want a trade to Miami or SF than the NYJ, or Carolina. We're still a ways from competing and we wouldn't be able to add much help for a few years with a blockbuster trade.

True. Which means we'll probably have to give away to much. Guess I'd still rather get behind exciting losses, rather than expected losses.

I so get it, but I'm thinking about 3 and 4 years from now. I always try to think about it as: Where do I want to be from our rock bottom point?

I think you can build a roster and compete for Super Bowls in 2023-24. I think some of these big trades push that back to 25-26 with our current talent level. We'd just end up with teams that are good enough to make the playoffs, and not good enough to win it all.

I think if anybody's hoping that he's got his eyes focused on the Panthers and no one else, they're gonna be disappointed.

It's like the 5th place team during the College Football Playoff selection time when Notre Dame is at 4, and just lost by 75 points.

Sure, in theory, you should be in the College Football Playoffs, but I wouldn't get my hopes up.

Guys we have a big advantage here.. the two teams that can offer more than us are in the AFC!!! NO WAY they trade him within the AFC right?!?

I would wager only the AFCS are the only ones they will really not want to deal with.  While the general preference might be the NFC they aren't going to turn away a good offer from a AFC not in their division.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Lions were never going Freeling over Miller for the same reason we wouldn't have taken Miller had Freeling not been on the board. Miller is a career RT Lions have a hole at RT, we have a hole at LT. If we took Miller, it would have been for him to backup Moton until he retires and/or we release him, so the best case scenario is it would have been a wasted 1st round pick for at least 1, if not 2 years.  At least Freeling has a shot at playing this year without injury ahead of him, he absolutely can win the LT job if he earns it, but Miller would have never supplanted Moton this year unless he got hurt.

      The Carolina Huddle

      By Chaos · Posted

      What up y’all. I like threads like this where we can stroll down memory lane. I remember the insane amount of site traffic pre-crash when we signed Keyshawn Johnson, 06 I believe. Raging about the Cowboys Christmas Eve loss in 05 (Peppers touched that FG attempt as sure as Cotchery caught it). When I found the huddle I basically had a first born baby, now I’ve got one in college and one in high school. Life comes at you fast, but the Panthers and the Huddle has been a steady constant in my life for many years.  Those who have been here, y’all are cool with me any time any where.    Cheers, genitals!

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      By MartyClemons · Posted

      This is a weird post since it wasn’t like we got A’s across the board. We needed a QB and got a consensus top 2 player at that position. (I was pretty vocal that Stroud should’ve been the guy but…)  I think this draft we generally got better value. I’m not particularly optimistic on BY but another year in this offense playing with TMac he really needs to be a consistently average QB at a minimum
