Burns and Moore are the only ones with Tradable contacts after two years of restructuring CMC Robbie and others.

Robbie has a out next year and I suggest we take it. He's the second highest paid player on our roster! We could also trade him for the same hit.

What rebuild are you guys talking about? Spending $80M+ in cap in 2020 on Teddy, Robby, Okung, Weatherly, Apple and Searcy doesn’t seem like a rebuild. Did we trade away players for picks or did we maximize our comp picks like losing our 3rd for Bradberry? Nope.

2020 was a retool and try to compete using almost all you salary cap, etc. we did not commit in any way to a real rebuild.

When most losers rebuild they trade away expensive cap players for picks and don’t load up on FAs year 1 of rebuild. It’s about maximin cap rollover to use in future years and getting as many draft picks as you can. We didn’t rebuild. We first tried to save Marty’s job and then tried to maintain Rhule’s job and compete in 2020/2021. We did it again with Baker and are over the cap in 2023 right now by a lot even with $10M to rollover (might be $0 later).

Yup there was no rebuild at all. More like duck tapping and praying for good results.

    • I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes. 
    • Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.  
    • Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
