Panthers about to trade for CJ Henderson?!?!

[Shocker]

This is a roll of the dice type move by the Panthers.  I am extremely curious why Jax would trade him for so little if there weren’t major issues with his level of desire.

It absolutely isn't his physical profile and speed.  Dude is a stud athletically no doubt

We sweetened the deal with superstar Dan Arnold. But for only a 3rd and they would have to give us a 5th to ease the pain of losing such a huge part of our offense.  How could they say no to that?

Jacksonville: we'll take no less than a 2nd for Henderson. 

Fitterer:  a 2nd isn't available. 

Jacksonville:  oh. Well, Dan Arnold?

Fitterer:  yeah, Dan Arnold.

The Jags apparently wanted Arnold badly in FA..whatever that tells us.  They needed a TE.  If CJ plays to his ability this is the Lufthansa heist.

If not hey, not the end of the world.

I doubt we will come out this trade worse than we were going in. The kid is too talented not to take a chance on.

Definitely worth a shot.  The whole Darnold to Arnold thing got cringeworthy quick.  Arnold was JAG so it fits nicely

Is there still a chance something happens and the trade doesn’t go through, or is it already a done deal? I don’t want to get hyped up only to be super disappointed.

Just watched the highlights of the Jags - Broncos game.

Henderson gave up a TD to Patrick and never returned to the game. He was listed as out with an 'illness' and a 'minor groin injury' for Week 3. He was absolutely loafing on the highlights though - clearly didn't want to be there and was quite clearly benched.

Rhule has a major rebuild on his hands here - the talent is there, but he's going to have to get inside the kid's head and flip a switch.

Yes, Henderson or Arnold could fail their physical and the trade would be dead but that rarely happens.

Sounds like a bad environment in general over there I can only imagine what the locker room is like. If he can't thrive here it isn't going to happen. Rhule will coach him up.

We should have no issue resigning him look at how much CJ is owed over the next 3 years, 7.3 million!!! That’s nothing. Donte can stay outside we can move Henderson and Horn around contingent on the other teams formation and really be elite. God my pussy is we rn, it’s too early to be this goddamn horny.

Trading Darnold will give us $1,272,500 in dead cap this season and next.

The Jags will take on $2.435 million 2022 salary.

Almost 65% of Henderson's four-year rookie contract has already been paid by the Jaguars, with about 60% of the total coming via his signing bonus.

Carolina will inherit a fully guaranteed three-year, $7.17 million contract.

 

Those numbers make this trade even more amazing!!!!

So we've given up on Sam so quickly?

And if you think about it Jackson hasn't been all that healthy in the past. We have great depth now at CB and we don't have to use Corn. This gives us the best CB duo since Gamble and Lucas once Horn returns. I'm thrilled. Although the naming duos of Corn and Horn, Arnold and Darnold, it was shaping up to be pretty funny.

Corn?  Is that what the "C" in CJ stands for?
