Three firsts, Derrick Brown, Donte Jackson, Teddy Bridgewater.  Does that get it done?  
 

Draft a QB at #8 and TB is your bridge this year.  Two second year stars on defense (but not BB/JC).  I feel like that’s our starting point. 

McCaffrey, DJ Moore, Brian Burns, our next 3 1st round picks, 2022 2nd round pick, 2023 3rd round pick

No it will not 

Agreed.  Miami has two 1st’s and two 2nd’s *this year* plus Tua and plenty of young defensive studs.

If Miami is bidding against us...Brian Burns and/or Jeremy Chinn will have to be included.

And I doubt a $64 million RB is high on Houston’s list. Just saying.

I’d dangle CMC and Moore all day, but the rookie deals is what they’re going to value the most.  That’s what makes Burns, Brown, and Chinn so valuable.  Everyone loves CMC but I doubt a rebuilding franchise values a $64million running back that high.

Derrick Brown was the main reason our run defense was not terrible last year.  2019 was so frustrating Luke retired. I don’t want to see Watson on the sidelines watching teams slowly run down the field and control the clock. With YGM showing promise and Haynes developing, we honestly might be better off trading Burns instead of Brown. Burns will hold more value and probably be due a larger salary sooner....

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
