The FA WR group is really deep. I don't think Curt is in the top 5 in the group. I highly doubt anyone is breaking the bank for a slot receiver,.esp given the overall cap situation this year.

That is one thing that is going to be interesting to see. There are legit #1 and #2 WR's available this free agent class. Unless there are a lot of teams that want to spend loot on free agent WR's, Samuel COULD end up being more of a bargain signing.

#3 WR is very close to a starter in the Brady O, wish we could kept him, just doesnt make sense if gets a 8 digit per contract.. should have bought low and signed him past years ago.

WR Draft class is also, no it is the best class for the upcoming draft. Teams for sure factor that in. You need a seasoned agent for this coming storm. I bet teams will be calling 3 WRs at the same time and be like "We have one 4 year 35 million contract. Half guaranteed and the first WR that takes this get it...." I heard teams calling before and saying this offer is only good for 24 hours. With the WR market I could some holding out and losing millions by doing so.

Too many teams need a good receiver. Someone is gonna overpay. He is as good as gone, unless he's willing to leave money on the table just to play in Carolina.

Players are often much more valuable in the eyes of the team they are leaving. You have to remember that he’s had injuries and so his body of work isn’t maybe as impressive as potential. So are teams Really willing to overpay on potential when he’s had an injury history?

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      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.
