Trading for CJ Henderson was a mistake.

Some of us are big boys who can handle talking about multiple subjects, from the highest highs to the lowest lowes without making it a 'mood first' thing, whatever that is.

It is a subject that will continue into the offseason. The fact you follow the 'serial doom poster' around to whine says more about you then him.

If you don't see how the timing of this post is enough to irk people then I guess there's not much more I can say. And I don't follow them around lmao I'm literally just responding to a thread on a message board. But if you wanna be doom and gloom all the time and never take a moment to celebrate anything because there's always something you can complain about, then more power to ya, just don't be upset when people are actually happy and optimistic.

At the time, it was not known that Gilmore was going to fall into their laps. The secondary is playing so well, both as a unit and individually, that there just isn't anywhere for him. 

He was a player they had ranked very highly. He was obviously in a shitty situation in Jacksonville. 

Depending on how he develops in practice, you have options moving forward with the contracts of Jackson, Gilmore, and Bouye. 

This is all for a third. If you truly had him ranked as a first, this is a brilliant move.

It will take time to fully judge this trade, and it'll be dependent on how he pans out. The panthers lose nothing now for giving up a 2022 third. If he turns into a legitimate starter, this looks like a steal. 

These are the kinds of forward thinking moves you should cheer on. 

Thoughtful, sensible and almost polite.

Who are you and where is Fizz?

It is a legitimate subject. I didnt agree with the original poster comments completely but there is some relevant Panther football subject matter there. I think it was covered well by other posters after that.

See, zero emotion or negativity. And no I do not see how this post irks anyone, this is the Huddle. Some great, some awful and a lot in-between.

This subject could've been brought up at any time, but it wasn't. Like you said, this will be an offseason subject to talk about, so it could've waited until then. But the timing of this purely negative thread the day after signing Cam, gives it the appearance of being a wet blanket thread. There is nothing more I have to say on the matter. Cheers.

Did they said from day 1 this was a trade to build for the future and not a win now move? The kids going to be just fine here. He shouldn’t be starting over Gilmore, Jackson or Bouye. Let him learn our system and adjust. He’s still really young. When we lose 1-2 of these guys next year due to free agency he will slide right on in while on a rookie contract. It’s fine.

It seems like Hepcat is just a miserable poster. Even when things are going well, he’s posting about when/how the other shoe will drop. What an awful way to follow a team. 

lol man, I posted about how happy I was that Cam was back yesterday. It was a desperately needed move on a team that has admittedly gotten pretty miserable. 

Now I'm thinking about how much better it would be if Cam had Dan Arnold to throw to and a 3rd round pick next year to beef up a pathetic offensive line instead of yet another corner on a team that seems hell bent on collecting them.

Everyone is touting the "buy low" aspect on Henderson but lest we forget that the Jaguars gave up on this guy 1 year after drafting him in the top 10. What did they know that the Panthers didn't? Even the Jaguars aren't stupid enough to give up on a guy that fast unless something was seriously wrong.

I'll bump this thread next year when Henderson gets cut in training camp because he doesn't give a sh*t.

I’m not sure if Cam has lost the zip on his throws?  If not, Dan would not be catching them.

Dan needs an accurate ball put where he can get it.  Cam has and always has had shotgun accuracy matched with terminal velocity.

I want Cam and CMC fuging people up at the LOS.

”ok… watch this”

He dropped a dime on Moore today. That's without playing for weeks. Just saying.

This bump was not necessary man. 

This was a thread about how we got fleeced and CJ was never seeing the field. Give credit where credit is due. CJ is getting healthy and seeing more playing time. The outcome of this trade is still very much up in the air. We got screwed on the Sam trade, hopefully this one will turn out differently.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
