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

No to Horn, but the other three are replaceable. As much as Chinn is a good story and teammate and we love him, we could just sign one of the numerous starting level safeties for the same production. There are about 12 available in free agency 

Chinn’s positional value just isn’t there and I have his jersey. Burns is the one that will hurt the most imo. Id like to keep horn if this trade goes down.

Watson’s contract is going to eat up our salary cap. We already have dead money/cap issues. If we trade for him we will have no picks and no money for Free Agents. It will be a one main show and he will probably get injured behind our line with our shitty coaches. 

I wonder if we plan on restructuring/resigning him to a different deal? Could make it advantageous for both sides, and free up some cash to fix the line.

Panthers can renegotiate his deal if he’s traded here. There is stuff they can do.

from the Texans forum

Bargain for whatever team he lands on compared to the more recent QB contracts ..... the Texans having paid ~$50m in up front money and taken the cap hit .... They better get a kings ransom in picks.

Tepper and Rhule killed the franchise.

This trade would be a total disaster. Gut the team on a career .500 quarterback. The Texans put a lot better teams around him than we’re close to having and he still won nothing. Barely won divisions in the porous AFC South.

There’s no way other teams are beating that offer. Wtf is Seattle offering? Dk? They have no good players on rookie deals

Replace able how? With first round picks? We would have none. FAs? We have no money. If this trade goes through the plan is literally field a team with 6th round picks and bottom tier FAs. Atleast now when we suck we have first round picks. Gonna be insanely painful to miss playoffs and not even have a first to help the team

We are going to get fuging fleeced and still not have an oline or resources to build one.  We just need to hope Watson says "nah dawg" to us
