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.

21 point win on the trade value chart, so yes.

Fug the trade value chart, we went from a spot where we could get borderline first rd talent to late second and also gave up a 4th just to get 83 back? Idgaf about the 6th round pick.

    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
    • Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
