Is there anyone on this roster you wouldn't trade?

Chinn, Horn, Moton, Shaq, Burns. Shaq really impressed this season and showed up laying the thunder.  We need to move Chinn closer to the line of scrimmage to let him impact more plays.  I think it would help Burns out, as well.  And Moton is literally our only good OL.  Can’t let him go.

Given the right price no one. But at the same time I wouldn’t want to be erratic about trading players when they are not part of the problem. The big issues as pointed out here and everywhere else this team comes up is OL and QB. 
 

That said, does the trade ultimately help you improve these areas without creating an issue elsewhere?  Trades alone will not fix what is broken.  It might make you feel better because doing something feels better than doing nothing but you have to do the right something to reap benefits.

Everybody can go for the right price. 

BUT from an NFL realistic perspective....

+ how hard it would be to find alternative production.

+ Your workers, your grinders, that winning mentality certain players have 

Defense: Chinn(LB), Shaq(Heartbeat), Burns(Still in development. Loses contain but his upside is ridiculous), Reddick (Beast), Horn (Beast), Gilmore(Still a top 15 corner IMO + guidance). 

You keep those 6 alone and surround them with template players and you'll still field a top 20 defense imo. Sadly 2 of those may never wear a Panthers uni again. 

Offense: DJ(consistent production no matter the QB), Moton(consistent protection), CMC (been injury plagued these last two seasons but IF healthy he's more times the not the best player on field including the opponents roster)

But that's just me attempting to talk myself away from the cliff.

Chinn, Horn, Shaq. If you have those three with a solid pass rush then you can build a top 5 defense. 
 

I was a big supporter of trading Burns, Brown, CMC after last year to try and get capital for a QB. If we had done that we’d have a HAUL of picks this year and a TON of cap room. Instead all of their values decreased and we still had a sucky season.

    • You have to think about it in terms of trade value. What can you reasonably expect to get on the trade market for a 5th round pick? Certainly not a guy who is going to be a highly sought after free agent.
    • Even if the 5th being lost is guaranteed, that’s better value than we’ve gotten from a 5th round pick since 2012 with Josh Norman.
    • I'm not sure he's even worth signing to an extension at any point, even if he has a solid season. He turns 28 in a couple of weeks and has ONE 1,000 season in his career with better QB play than Bryce (and better coaching as well). He's a solid player, but fact remains that probably the best team at recognizing WR talent in the last 10-15 years, decided he wasn't someone they wanted to keep around.  I'd rather overpay for a better player in the offseason, and/or use our first rounder next year on a 21 year old WR with truly elite potential to pair with Legette. I like the trade to get us a solid WR option this year, but extending him now just makes absolutely no sense, it's the same problem we've had for the last decade, overpaying for average to slightly above average players. We aren't contenders this year and short of some absolute miracle happening, we won't be contenders for the following couple seasons either.  So why in the world does anyone think signing a 28 year old without a single elite season in his 5 year career is a smart move? We're not going to be contenders with a 30 or 31 year old Deontae Johnson making 25+ million a season, that's just asinine to think it's a smart move, even with a rising cap. I'd rather overpay a Aiyuk or Higgins by $7-10 million a season next offseason than pay Johnson a fair market contract.  Or try to trade for someone like DK Metcalf next offseason, who I don't think gets a new deal in Seattle, it's why they drafted JSN.
