The Hornets need to figure out a way to get rid of Hayward ASAP.

They probably have tried but maybe no takers.  If Bridges is looking for a max deal they should try to get something for him.  It’s a mess but I don’t see us giving him that deal with Jordan around.  My 2 cents

The Pistons Athletic contributor seems to believe that the Pistons won’t be players in the big FA market as they need to sign five or so players to build out their roster.

"As I reported last week, even with room to sign a player to a max contract, the Pistons are unlikely to throw max offers at the likes of restricted free agents Deandre Ayton and Miles Bridges, though things can change. Instead, signs point to Detroit looking to add quality, veteran role players to pair with its young core as it furthers this rebuild."

Starting to hear that Hornets aren't giving out any max contracts so Miles has to consider taking a lot of money instead of max money.

Max money is all-star money. So for Miles, there goes at least two potential max contracts including hometown Detroit.

Why would the Hornets say they are giving a restricted free agent a max deal already? That makes zero sense since they can just match any offer Miles gets and will want to keep more cap space available for any other free agents they may want to sign.

      Panthers Select Xavier Legette with Pick 32

      By Tbe · Posted

      This team once again got tunnel vision on one guy. This might be my biggest issue with the trade. It points to the same behavior that led us to drafting the fewest prospects in the league over the past 3 years. They need to let the draft come to them and stop chasing ‘their guys’.

      Panthers Select Xavier Legette with Pick 32

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Buffalo was in need of a WR, and after Pearsall was drafted, the Panthers may have figured that a team needing a WR (like the Panthers, for example) could trade up with Buffalo to get the fifth year option at the end of the first round.  Look at the teams picking early in the second round and look at the big board.  There is going to be a run on WRs.  This not only provided the Panthers with the fifth-year option, but it assured them that nobody was going to deal with Buffalo, and Buffalo was not going to take Legette.  So Bean decided to upgrade his day three sixth rounder to a fifth, and Morgan got his guy and the fifth year option.  Win Win.  Obviously Buffalo was open for business, so if you consider the fact that Buffalo might have been getting calls for the pick, Morgan switched places with Buffalo.  It is likely that Buffalo did not want to drop farther than 33, so they dealt with Carolina--dealing with anyone else would risk losing Mitchell, the guy they probably covet (or Ladd).  The ONLY team who was assured they are not going to lose their guy is Buffalo.  I am not sure this deal goes down unless Morgan tells Bean who he was going to take and that Beane trusted Morgan's word.  After pick 33.... Pick 34.  New England needs a receiver. Pick 36.  Washington needs a receiver. Pick 37.  Chargers need multiple receivers. Pick 44.  Raiders need a receiver. Pick 45. Saints need a receiver. The NFL Draft ESPN Big board for "Best Remaining" Players features 3 Wide Receivers in the next 7 picks.  I am guessing that Buffalo wants Mitchell, and when the Panthers decided to go with Legette, they were willing to deal.
