Last year's mistakes are double compounded. Not only did we pass on Fields and Jones but we gave up a pick that would have netted us a QB this year as well. Talk about a massive failure trading for darnald. 

What has Fields done in the NFL to convince you he's the guy?

If Strongs knee can hold up, I think he could be the biggest steal of the draft for some team.  Hes got all the arm talent in the world. 

I wouldn't go that far.

He's got a good NFL arm, which is obviously quite rare.

I'd love to pick him up and develop him - he makes some throws that stand out on film (both with accuracy and anticipation).

Fitterer stated pretty clearly on his radio interview that they were not at all up for trading next year's first and second round picks.

He seemed to hedge a little when it came to talking about picks after the third, though.

Robby and next year's 4th for a 2nd tonight for Howell?

As down on the Panthers as I've been recently that would be an immediate

If you could convince me that we were getting the Sam Howell I saw last year, I could more easily get on board with it.

And I'd really want to know that he had the right skills to run a West Coast style attack.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
