If we wanted to acquire more pics, would you rather sacrifice #6 overall or a player on the roster?

Could you trade DJ Moore, yes but he's on a 5th year option, and a team may not be willing to pay a premium price for a receiver on a one year deal, and likely looking for premium compensation. You also don't get better trading away your best players, imagine where the passing game would be in his absence in this past season.

It’s funny cuz I got roasted in the offseason for mentioning trading DJ for a 1st as I likened it to a Diggs to Buffalo kind of trade.  I was told we’d be crazy to do this. And I’m not saying it was u at all who said that. But we should definitely be able to get a 2nd and 3rd. For me, DJ is not some difference maker. I think he’s talented for sure but I’d easily reallocate the money that would be spent on his new contract and put it to better use. I also do think you can trade away a player like him because we aren’t a few players away from being a contender. Sacrifices will need to be made for the betterment of our long term success.

If you can get a first or a couple of 2nds then do it.  But nobody is going to give you that much

In my opinion both are solid options and it should not be viewed as one or the other..

 

Players trades:  Two big names to trade would be CMC and Anderson.  If we can get 2nd/3rdish and wash away those contracts it would be good to clean that up.  

Free Agency:   I wouldn't bet on FA for starting OL guys but if you could get a solid G who is a huge step above Eflien and Erving you do it.   If you have one of those slots filled things will not be as dire as they are now. Also don't know what Deonte Brown can do.  If Brown can make an impact you have more flexibility.  I don't think he goes from sitting out an entire season to being the starter next year.  So I think best case scenario is you have a guy you can rotate in that isn't a turnstile. 

Draft Trade Down:  I think you have to see how the board shakes out and what happens in free agency.  Right now I think you have to go with either the best LT you can get at 6 or trade down and snag an interior lineman in the 1st.  If we can trade down and acquire more picks in the process it would be ideal so long as we address the OL early with guys that are ready to play.

Now watch Rhule burn 2023 draft capital and trade up 2 spots for Pickett...

don't trade any players this season. Be prepared to know it'll be another 4-6 win season and hope for CJ Stroud or Bryce Young next year.

Trade down #6 then take the best OL available. 

would actually like to use the gained pick for a possession WR or receiving TE so can move Robby next offseason and also insurance if Moore can't be retained.

This isnt going to be a 1 year rebuild and we should be prepared.

You can't trade either, 

CMC - Has a 26M DEAD cap hit for 22' and would create -12M in cap space

Robbie - Has a 15.6M DEAD cap hit for 22' and would only save 1M

People need to do some research before things like this are proposed, Teddy was moved because the coaches thought they could replace him with Darnold, and still had to eat a considerable amount of dead cap. 

You can't operate / waste cap that way two off-seasons in a row, especially if there are talks of trying to figure something out with Sam...

Could you trade DJ Moore, yes but he's on a 5th year option, and a team may not be willing to pay a premium price for a receiver on a one year deal, and likely looking for premium compensation. You also don't get better trading away your best players, imagine where the passing game would be in his absence in this past season.

I would not consider this team with a competent staff in ''burn it all down'' mode. Use the 6th to acquire more picks, and solidify the roster as a whole. IMO find a way to move Sam if a team agrees to take on some of the guaranteed salary and keep Cam as he'd perform the better of the two with a competent OL. If you can't find a partner for Sam, we are forced due to his 18M guaranteed to likely ride it out with him for 22' and Cam is released...again.

In 23' we should be in a better position roster wise to move up for a QB where the talent is expected to be higher. 

Turn off the cap. Boom, free money!

      NHL Olympics Thread (Or just Olympics in general)

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Dude, I think I might be having Jarvy withdrawals... I ripped the sleeves off of all of my t-shirts in my sleep last night. Every bite of my Alpha-Bita cereal spelled Seth, this morning. And, I took 7 naps before lunch. I'm losing it guys! Jarvy's Jaunty Band of Jaggoffs are getting more play than he is... smh Team Canada doesn't treasure Jarvis the way he deserves. He should take his band down to Liechtenstein, get a bag of passports, and start his own Olympic team! The raw animal magnetism of Jarvilicious will bring in a handful of NHLers on its own. And, since the IOC believes in collective punishment, he could have his pick of the rookies. Then, just fill out the rest of the roster with the maple blooded great white northerners who couldn't make the top squad. Can't trust this assembled awesomery to just any old Liechtensteinien with a clipboard and a whistle. Gotta bring in a legend worthy of this gold medal gambit. A hockey HOFer with the balls to buck the system and the aura to match our maverick. Huere geil, Vaduz!!! 2030 Gold Medal guaranteed!

      NFLTR: Panthers Offseason:Team Needs, pending free agents, draft picks

      Tennessee isn't trading a QB on a 2nd round contract that has starting experience.  That's bad business.

      OT is the top priority as it is both an immediate and future need.  I wouldn't be past trading up slightly to get the guy we want.  You need that rookie contract right now.  Icky is a dead 17.5 million for the season.  Morton is 20+ mil for the season, Hunt is 20+ mil for the season.  There needs to be forward thinking regarding the future.   Caleb Lomu is a left Tackle, he's a solid prospect, he may be the best pick for us now and in the future.  I would seriously consider cutting Hunt after 2026, and let Lomu and Icky fight for the LT job, loser moves inside.  Icky's future may be at guard after this injury anyway.  If Damien Lewis keeps up his level of play he will need to be paid sooner rather than later.  Yosh and BC can be our top two depth OL at an affordable price.  You will need to look at OT again in 2027. Getting an EDGE for the sake of getting an EDGE outside of the top 10 is pretty risky.  I wouldn't be against eyeing someone like Cashius Howell, Derrick Moore, or TJ Parker in the 2nd (even if we trade a future pick to move up) or DDS in the third. I'd love to see us try to sign both Leo Chenal and Matt Millano in FA.   Chenal for the blitzing element we are missing from our LB corps and Millano for his elite coverage.  They could both work in tandem.  Remember, our FO has deep ties to both KC and Buffalo. I love thinking about the draft, but until Free Agency hits, we are clueless.  Looking at the strength of FA and the draft, OL is priority #1, LB #2, and EDGE #3.  We know what happens to Bryce when protection falls apart.
