Panthers trade Dennis Daley to Titans

There's no 8th round values.  So how do you value a 2024 7th? Zero?

So trying to adjust for the value of time in the picks:

Daley:   '24 5th- '24th 7th= 6th-8th=  21-0= 21
Shenault 23 7th + '24 6th = 7th+7th=8.2+8.2=16.4

We received 4.6 more in value for Daley than Shenault after adjusting for time.  Essentially we came out with an additional 7th round pick 25 after both trades.

 

Put another way….

We were given a late 7th round pick to trade Daley for Shenault straight up. 
 

No brainer

That's awesome. That dude is trash. Something for nothing.

Wasn't really that bad for a 6th round pick... Large large majority of those picks are out of the league by now. He has value as an end of the roster lineman, clearly, considering we got a better pick than we drafted him with anyways.

I like Daley over Jordan but I doubt anyone was going to offer anything for him. If the Titans gave up that I doubt we'll find anything of value during cuts to improve our line. 49ers were also checking out John Miller lol. O-line is tough on GM's

Four years after you're drafted I no longer really care about your draft status. The reality is that he was a bad OL that hung around on our roster because we had a bad OL.

Yeah, he wasn't an awful 6th round pick. But it's past time we moved on and I'm thrilled to get actual trade return for him.

There are plenty of worse 8/9 OL around the league. It's embarrassing that we had him starting so many games and not due to a ton of injuries, but having him on a roster is not a problem. He's better than Bell and Chandler ever were and those guys were our plan A at OT one year...

Bell and Chandler were quite possibly the worst planned starting OT tandem in NFL history. No exaggeration. That's the type of OT tandem you'd expect to see after a team freakishly sustained 5 or 6 injuries at OT.

Completely agree. And Bell even stuck around the league for another 4 years across 3 teams while starting multiple games in multiple seasons after he left here. 

My point is, while Daley is not good and it's nice to get something for him, many teams have worse on the end of their roster than him. Him being on the roster for the last 3 years just isn't an issue. It could've been much worse, and is much worse for plenty of other teams. I'm glad we're finally looking to have a rock solid starting OL AND better depth such that Daley is expendable for us, but that doesn't mean Daley isn't a valuable player on a 6th round rookie scale contract. Obviously he is considering what we got for him.

People can tell themselves that Fitts "swindled" the Titans on this deal, but I disagree -- the trade was just fair value. Fortunately we are in a position with the OL where we can make this move and have it be a positive since Daley may not have made our roster anyways. Just good business all around from our front office.

Fitt is great at getting value. He is a value junkie. He can give a coach all the value that is available. Its up to the coach to do his part of the deal and actually coach them.

Topper is all about that too, so it probably scores on that front. A point in the job security column.

I'm not going to celebrate our newfound OL situation until I actually see us field an NFL caliber OL. Because damn, it's been awhile.

Posted this is the other thread, but I'll post it here too.

I know Daley's play seemingly regressed each year after his rookie season, but I still liked him.  Actually I would've kept him over Erving, Elf, and Jordan.  He's versatile, and when put in a good situation, has shown he can play quality football at this level.  I wish him the best in Tennessee and I think he will do well.

Also, for those that forgot...  I'm driving the fuging Fitt Wagon and we ain't stopping.  Dude is such a breath of fresh air.

He's an improvement on Hubbard and an addition to the WR corps giving us another dimension. I think he can play the slot, but he can line up anywhere. I said before, he can be used like Cordarrelle Patterson. A true hybrid guy.

I have a feeling he’s the new Chubba.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
