In the pre-draft presser, we said we have spoken with 5 teams about a potential trade down. Since then, I have been trying to consider who those 5 teams would be. Remember, in the same conversation we also said that we had 16 players as 1st round picks and we do not know who those players are. My guess would be at least 3 and as many as 6 are NOT commonly ranked as the 16 best players in the draft based on our staffs own personal preferences. Based on rumors, even if they make no sense to me personally, and then what I think some teams may be willing to do I have come up with these 5 teams:

Broncos (to stop us from from allowing another team to jump ahead of them for their QB)

Chargers (to secure a non QB they really like. Maybe Slater or a WR)

Patriots (to jump ahead of Denver for a QB they like. Yes they don't usually do this but they don't usually sign big FAs and they did and they used to have Mr. Brady)

Cardinals (to secure a non QB they really like. Specifically a WR)

Bears (For a QB. The coach and GM's butts have to be hot. Underachieving team might reach to save jobs)

Possible: WFT (I don't put them here as I think they may be too conservative now to move so high unless their owner hadn't learned his lesson yet)

Never trade with multiple partners...

 

What?

Not saying they undoubtedly would, but I could see them trading up for Lance...so many reports of them liking him a lot...they have Fitzmagic for a year...could sit and learn for a year...plus they have Marty who has no problems moving up....definitely wouldn’t shock me if they swapped 1sts with Lions and gave them their ‘22 1st as well

I will say, the potential partners in WAS, NE and CHI could be bad this season and they would need to package their 2022 1st rounder to move up to #8.

Could easily be a top-5 pick next year.  Could have 2 top-16 first rounders.  Great ammo to land the top QB.  It's an appealing strategy but I'd hope they have a specific player or two they're targeting in a trade down.  Jenkins, Darrisaw, Horn, etc.

I feel like Denver, even though they're just a spot back, would be the most likely. I don't feel the front office will trade back too far, and risk missing on a prospect they covet in an offseason this important. It's Fitt's first off-season, and Rhule's second, and both know they need to hit on this pick.

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
