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.

    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
    • Yea Bryce was definitely a top half qb the second half of last season but I'm not sure Canales is 100% sold on him.  Like I've said in another post I think that's part of why we talked to so many South Carolina players in the draft process.  I think they are doing early due diligence on Sellers just in case.
