And taken ourselves out of the running for the 1st round talent that slipped out of the first round.

Trading down for trading downs sake. 

Or maybe, and hear me out, maybe all the 16 first round talents we had on our board are already gone and we like a lot of players all in the same range. We now get three of them instead of two.

Why tf did we give them our 5th though lol....rather just get the 3rd and that's it like huh

Because we get a 3rd while everyone else is getting 4th rd picks to trade back. Great value in terms of the trade by us . Package those 4 6th rd picks we can easily recoup that 5th rd pick. Actually pretty smart

What the fug does 21 points matter for a special teams or fringe roster player?

it’s 21 points over and above what would have been a fair trade, which is how the chart works. get real. this is a win for Carolina. can’t believe I have to teach addition and subtraction here.

They actually have the length.  The rest of the guys have short arms.  Odd year. 

done your homework Bubba!  They are also better pass protectors that run blockers.

      I believe I just read somewhere that the Rams don't do Top 30 Visits. I mean, it makes sense from the standpoint of trying to keep information close to the vest.

      Emanuel McNeil Warren + Jacob Rodriguez

      I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.

      Panthers WR Xavier Legette named potential trade candidate for 2026 offseason

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
