Fitterer definitely should have predicted that, months later, the Jags would be willing to cut bait on Henderson at a loss and Gilmore and New England would reach an impasse in extension talks.

 

Yeeesh. 

That's not what I said it's just a matter of reality. We're all seeking the same result we just don't want the oline which has been a thorn for years to hold us back from all this potential yet again. We are putting a huge amount of resources in this defense but if our quarterback can't do his job it's all for naught.

lol, that's like saying "Seeing Bitcoin at $50k now makes me wonder more if I should have bought it at $20 ten years ago instead of that McDonald"...

How was Fitt supposed to know that he going to get these guys for at this price?

And besides, Jaycee Horn is an All-Pro CB in the making.  I don't think people realize how good he is in man coverage, but they will.  I would have been cool with us drafting him even if we had already acquired Gilmore.  

We'll get the OL fixed.  Ya'll really think a GM who is this proactive in fixing our issues is going to let the OL keep sucking for another season?  Let's just be patient ya'll.  I mean do ya'll remember how bad our secondary was in 2019?  Look how fast we fixed it.  Remember how bad our DL was in 2019?  Look how fast we fixed it.  We got this.

Or we created a scenario that will likely net us a 3rd or 4th rd comp pick for a 6th

bingo. the pick given is a 2023 pick, which just happens to be the same year the Panthers would get a comp pick for Gilmore if he doesn't re-sign this offseason. and yeah, I'd probably put money on that comp pick being higher than a 6th. of course this is dependent on other FA moves the team might make after this year.

Pretty clear they just thought Horn was the better prospect. And at #8 overall, you should be taking the best guy on your board. End of story. There is no way to predict that months later he'd have the chance to trade for multiple quality starting CBs in the middle of the season.

Re-sign him, let D-Jax go at the end of the season and next year we’re looking at:

Stephon Gilmore

Jaycee Horn

CJ Henderson

Troy Pride

😳😳😳

Man, if Chinn moves back to SS and we can get a decent FS next year….oh boy. 

Did you mean to put Pride’s name in with those other guys?

Had Pride not gotten hurt, he most likely would’ve gotten cut

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By jb2288 · Posted

      I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes.

      Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.

      Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
