Still Want to Upgrade -- Via Trade??

The LT spot is difficult to decide.  Do you trade away draft capital for a LT on a team that he's not starting for?  Trade for a disgruntled player? Trade for an aging Vet?  IMO all of these could set us back further than what we are now.  If we are going to trade for a player than that player HAS TO BE PROVEN on the field otherwise you are gambling with your future.

Winning franchises, win through solid drafts not free agency.  You fill in gaps with Free Agency. It seems that Erving is not panning out, which is sad to here because he was that Fill in the gap player. I think our best option is to sign Russell Okung again.  Draft OT in 2022.   He's been out all preseason and should be healed from his injuries. I would assume he is in good shape just waiting for a call.  If we remember, Jonathan Stewart was always out of preseason and once the season started he was good.

One last thing on Okung, he won't cost us any draft capital.  If he were to go down again at least we have Erving to replace him or move Moton over to LT.  Or possibly Christensen has developed enough to go to LT.  

As far who they are extending I hope it isn't Anderson.  As I said before you build through the draft.  We just drafted two players in Marshall and Smith that can take the role of Anderson.  They're young and cheap. Not to mention that C.J. Saunders is making a huge bid to be in our final 53.  You work on signing our draft pick DJ Moore and let Anderson walk.  

If we continue to sign our draft picks we build continuity and loyalty to the Panther Organization.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
