So, basically it would be two 1sts, two 2nds, and two of Burns, Chinn, and Brown.

Sorry, I just can't do it. I'd LOVE to have Watson but I can't do that. That's basically the equivalent of four 1sts and two 2nds.

Why do you guys all assume that two young players means...”we aren’t making a deal unless you give us two 23 year old future pro bowlers on rookie deals.”

They could just as easily be interested in Jackson who could fit scheme. Maybe they liked Gross Matos in the draft? Who knows...

The tweet said young starters. Who else are you offering? They're not taking Shaq's contract. One of the reason they're going to want "young" is the rookie contracts

From what I understand McClain is pretty connected with the Texans.  I doubt he came up with the numbers by himself, someone is probably whispering in his ear.

Ive said all along it will probably take at least a combination of “5” for Watson. Three 1st and 2 players, 4 1st and a player maybe they take two seconds instead of one of the first like McClain is saying.  Maybe they count the #2 overall pick of the Jets as multiple 1st.
 

Either way, all of you holding out this idea that Watson and his so called leverage is going to make trading for him cheaper need to give up on that idea. 
 

I do find it interesting that they are looking for young players also, minimizes the risk of them missing on all of the draft picks.

That does help us though, we definitely  have decent young players, especially on defense that we could include in a trade. 
 

Based on this tweet the starting point for the Panthers would be something like two 1st, 2 2nds, and Burns and Brown or Chinn. 
 

How many people would be happy with that? 

 

good luck with that texans

No thanks, not interested in giving up Brown, Chinn, Burns. If they could take CMC, Shaq, Jackson then all for it.

We went a long time with a old veteran defense who couldnt produce and we finally get some young talent to start over with just to give them up? Nah

Those guys have the potential to be the best at their positions in a couple years.  I dont want to walk away from that. Rather just trade up in the draft.

Why not? We pay Shaq’s contract this year if we trade him. Then he goes on to be the 16th highest paid linebacker in the league next year. They can also cut him post June 1 and only have 3.2 in dead cap the next year. I don’t think contract would have much to do with it.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
