(*probably fake news*) Panthers turned down a trade offer last night.

Well its from Campbell so we know its legit. I would have done it for Linderbaum. Our offensive line would have gone from worst to first with Icky-Bozeman-Linderbaum-Corbett-Moton and then you just have to hope Hoskins and Roy continue to develop. But outside of the top 13 players and Linderbaum, I would hold on to Brown

I don't think you can give up on a 1st round DT after year 2 when he wasn't god awful. Can we have some patience for players to develop? You don't think he's kinda good if someone wants to give us a 1st rounder for him? 

 

Plus then we would have to spend that pick on a DT anyways unless we want to be real thin at that position....which we have seen before and it is not pretty.

Total guess, but I could see GB making that offer. They had picks 22 and 28, and went DT with pick 28. Seems reasonable in that we could have grabbed our QB on a 5year deal, but our Dline would be terrible without Brown, so I see the reasoning behind passing on the deal. 

Again, This is all just random speculation with me AND Walter football.

Yeah right lol

Article says sources told him we turned down a mid 1st rounder.

The guy has not been particularly good at pass rushing or run defense. A few outlier plays don’t make up for what he should be for spending a top ten pick. I would be disappointed with his level of play even if he had been drafted a couple rounds later.

Hoping he might finally be good in his 3rd year would nowhere near justify turning down such a pick.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
