I had an epiphany

So I was just sitting here thinking panther this, panther that and it struck me 

Lets just trade 3 first for Watson and get this show on the road. We're young, hot and ready. If there was a team to do this successfully, it's the Carolina Panthers. We're built for this trade--- RIGHT NOW. Would be a dynasty I'm thinking. 3 firsts and Donte to sweeten the pot.

I just don't think the Panthers have the draft ammo to beat out the Dolphins or Colts.  Do we want to trade away some of our great defensive players for a guy who has massive amounts of baggage, and who may or may not return to his MVP level form?  I'd love to get the player Watson was before his "issues" emerged, but who knows how he will play after going through all of that?

Plus, we still need that draft capital to rebuild our OL...  Watson would still be running for his life behind our terrible line.

I don't see how we'd be able to trade for Watson and build an OL unless they traded him at a steep discount which sure doesn't seem like it's gonna happen.

Yeah, I don't think Carolina can put together enough, even at a discount for Watson right now.  We need to really work on fixing that OL for whoever throws passes for the Panthers.

I know everyone thinks the Panthers are cursed, but at least we didn't have a similar situation here with MVP Cam. Houston is really in a tough spot with Watson.

Cursed would've been orchestrating a blockbuster trade for Watson and THEN all of this coming out. Oh wee fuging mayne.

    • Oh it's nothing elite, but we played without Horn last year.  Gilly playing at 80% is better than any CB2 we have had in a moment.  Luvu was fun, but he was out of position in Evero's defense.  Jewell is a tackling machine and has had over 100 in 3 of his last 4 with his highest being at Denver with Evero.  Pass Rushing and CBs are strong red flags but they also were last year.  On paper it's the same or maybe slightly better than last year and Evero had them keeping us in some games.  Hell our 2 wins were due to the defense and the kicking game.
    • I mean best case scenario is horn plays 15ish games, brown and clowney replicate last years stats, we sign gilmore and he reverts back to form after his injury but even then we still lack pass rush and our linebackers are dogshit.  And thats best case.  If horn goes down and if clowney starts showing his age then it could get ugly.  We are going to miss the tenacity of luvu.
    • Well you have year 2 of the new scheme so several players should be more comfortable.   Vs last year DL we added Robinson to play DE giving Brown a solid presence on the other side, plus he is familiar with Evero (I don't like Shy at NT but he was there last year too)  LB- Clowney and Wonnum are more complete/probably better than Burns and YGM, Jewell and Shaq are better than Luvu and whatever random guy from the streets we had playing last and again Jewell is familiar with Evero CB- This is a big red flag but vs last year we kept Hill at slot, we lost Henderson and replaced him with Jackson which seems like a wash to me.  If we can sign Gilly I will consider this upgraded but as of now it's a weakness and a wash Safety- Fuller replaces Bell as an upgrade who is also familiar with Evero.  I think we signed another vet in Scott as depth   Depth is still an issue no doubt but it looks slightly better on paper than last year IMO...
