Still Want to Upgrade -- Via Trade??

The big question is what, and or who, would we give up for a tackle?

Are there any WR needy teams out there that have excess tackles? Would they want Robby Anderson? Our receiver corp seems pretty damn deep this year, a guy that's good isn't going to make the final roster cuts, so maybe he's a pawn in the trade. 

Could we also be looking at dealing our first or third next year (we don't have a second)?

We're deep at veteran WR.  And our rookie WR Terrace Marshall looks like a stud that could (and should) handle more playing time.  So I'd guess the trade would be a vet WR for an LT.  

Maybe the Panthers will combine two problems into one:  trade Robby Anderson and let him do a contract extension with his new team ?

But what NFL team has so many competent LT they can afford to give one up ?

Please no bandaid trades. Only make a trade if it's for a player who is in the long-term plans.

Agreed. I hate using trades for short term fixes.

Reading between the lines, it sounds like the staff really doesn't want to move Taylor Moton unless they have to.

Moton himself seems fine with the idea, but I think the coaches worry about it being a "robbing Peter to pay Paul" situation.

Damn. The GM straight up saying, "we think we can do better than the guy we've got."

That's a refreshing departure from hearing about the answer being on the roster.

Even though that's the guy he himself signed... Bit of a double-edged sword there. I think there were better options out there like Reiff that really didn't cost much more than Erving. 

Regardless though we're here now and let's see how things shake out. Hopefully these risk/reward OL signings pan out.

A 35 year old OT feels like the definition of a bandaid.

I recall the same being said about Andrew Whitworth... Depending on what we'd have to give up I still think it could be an intriguing option. Could even slowly groom Moton to take over on the left side once he retired/moved on and then have Christensen at RT.

      I think the first 3 picks will be defensive players this time. At least that's how the draft is falling this year. I would not be shocked at all if our 1st pick is the number one safety in the draft. It appears he will be right there for the taking.

      Man oh man. That 8-9 record without a playoff berth puts at 13 if I recall, ahead of both Atlanta and TB with their 8-9 records, due to our weaker SOS.   We might have been in range to deal for that guy. I hope he doesn’t last to 8. And I hope some AFC team picks him.

      Cool. I am not wanting to debate or argue it. It is mostly my preferences. But a couple of things:  I just don’t think he sees the middle of the field well. But besides that I would rather spend a 1st round pick at different offensive positions if we went offense, otherwise we have neglected defense something fierce the last few years. Last 1st rounder was Horn. That’s like 5 years ago now.   Investments… gee the last 4 drafts we have used a 2, a 2, a low 1st and a top ten pick on WR. Bryce has been here three years, three of those picks were specifically for him.  And assets, I don’t think you are counting the haul we gave for the QB position. That counts and it was huge.   Add that up and add the Burns cap space we freed up when we traded him. We bought two guards and used the savings on them. Not on the defense.  I mean, that is a lot of investment in the offense when you put all that in a sack and weigh it.    peace. Appreciate your post.
