Florio: Panthers understand they have to give up 3 firsts, another pick, and 1-2 (Chinn, Burns, Brown, Horn)

Per Aaron Wilson's article 

The Panthers, sources say, wouldn’t be willing to trade Brian Burns or Jeremy Chinn. But other players that could be involved in a potential Watson deal are running back Christian McCaffrey, defensive tackle Derrick Brown, and wide receiver DJ Moore.

On one hand its been refreshing to see an owner put his foot down and not tolerate stagnation. But it is alarming that he seems to meddle too much. I feel like he risks stalling necessary growth and road bumps to chase instant success. 

Except he has allowed it. Rhule still has a job here.

Won't trade Burns or Chinn but will Moore? Why tf would Deshaun Watson want to come here to throw to Robby Anderson as his #1 receiver behind a swiss cheese OL?

Yeah.  No OL, Anderson as his #1, Rhule as his coach with a time bomb ticking under his chair.  Perfect!

Houston is going to milk this thing to the point where they don't get anywhere near what they are wanting.   If the Eagles dropped out, they were one of three teams that had enough cap space without huge changes to be realistic.  They were also one of two that had enough draft capital to actually make the deal. 

Before this is over, it is possible everybody involved winds up skillfully screwing themselves.

It doesn’t matter if we don’t fix the OL.  Deshaun Watson will look like PJ Walker behind this line.  I see him checking out mentally after taking a beating the first few weeks behind this OL.

I can’t see why he would want to come here

I think that takes the list of realistic suitors down to:

  • Raiders
  • Lions
  • Panthers
  • Seahawks

Based upon current QB, division, cap space, and no putting out disinterest

From what I can see, you are correct.  It's always possible somebody like the Eagles puts out disinterest as a smokescreen or to ground the Texans' increasing demands. 

I haven't heard much about the Lions in this mess.  But they do have two first rounders this year, albeit one of them being the Rams' #32 pick.

Easier to hit on 4th round wide receivers than 4th DEs.

Oh it's easy for Carolina huh? 😂👀

Panthers WR's drafted since 2010:

Brandon LaFell Armanti Edwards David Gettis Kealoha Pilares Joe Adams Kelvin Benjamin Devin Funchess Curtis Samuel DJ Moore

I want Rhule gone and I think this team won't have a chance until he is  gone, but I don't want it done because some player won't come here unless he gets his HC of choice.

Once Tepper opens this Pandora's Box there will be no closing it.

It will be Watson's team and Tepper will be dancing to his tune.

All the coaches will be walking around on eggshells for fear that they might displease Deshaun. 

This situation is reminiscent of when the Panthers OC was not permitted to talk to Steve Smith, only worse.

    • I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.
    • From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"
    • Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
