Its been a rough five years as panthers fans, we all are in some level of fan frustration. That maybe a way hes trying to help you lower you levels. I know a year of complaining has done little good for the huddle. I rarely complain, but join a few of crybabing sessions, it was good to get some of that out. But daily, monthly, and now yearly?? Thats like hearing someone complaining about a restaurant that they always go to.... "I hate this place", pulls into parking spot.... 

Welcome to the internet social media and America in general. People live to complain. The human species is a mess. We can go on for hours about this but we all share blame. In the meantime I'll get back to hoping my football team doesn't get too embarrassed today.

You have the choice to evolve pass complaining. Each morning when you put your feet down, just ask yourself "Am I going to do like others and constantly complain or not". You still have that freedom, godspeed bro!!

Yeah man I'm sure out of the other 31 teams in the NFL hardly anyone else is complaining about anything.

It seems clear our staff isn't trading him unless they receive multiple top picks or significant young players in the deal. Our staff is smarter than Huddle posters about it. So those of you saying we should take only a 3rd or 4th rd pick are just showing your lack of knowledge on the topic.

 

Since the Broncos were mentioned, I wouldn't mind seeing if they would send Javonte Williams (2nd rd - significantly injured), Quinn Meinerz (3rd rd), and their 2024 1st/2nd round pick for CMC. They know with Wilson's contract and some of their other signings, they need to go for it now and Javonte's injury may have them willing to make this move. We end up with a top pick, a promising young RB that won't prevent our tank this year, and a solid interior linemen that can help bolster our OL.

I’m firmly in the camp of not trading McCaffrey. Obviously the game plan yesterday was too heavily skewed toward passing him the ball on screens because our QB situation prevented us from running a normal passing attack. But you saw what McCaffrey was able to do with all those touches. This type of use (obviously as a lower percentage of offensive plays, with an offense that also throws intermediate and deep to keep the defense honest and guessing) is how McCaffrey should have been used all along. When you look at that sort of offensive role, where McCaffrey is more of a WR that can also line up in the backfield, the contract doesn’t look so bad. And having him as an incredible weapon, perhaps along with a decent, at least functional offensive line, is really the only attractive qualities our offense has for a potential new head coach. I don’t think an extra first or a couple 2nds is going to provide more value for us to having him on the roster. Even if I had more confidence that the front office could select players in the draft that will be studs or major contributors with the picks we’d garner for McCaffrey in a trade, the trade would still really hamper our ability to construct a talented roster because all of the dead money. So when you combine those two factors, I say we hold onto him and try to restock the cupboard by trying to trade other pieces, even if the return won’t be as good.

Like I said, if we can get a first you couldnt say yes fast enough.

 

Jonathon Jones is reported that is the asking price.  A first or multiple picks

 

 

Unless it's expected to be a really high pick, i'd still consider it dumb to settle for just that.

There's way bigger News In that clip though.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
