Did we publicly announc we were trading burns or Moore? Last that I checked Panthers have been adamant that the only way they are trading CMC is for a haul. 

 

Fitt said he would always listen.  Not the same as he is trying to trade someone.  Teams thinking the Panthers are looking to dump players.  Not. They could get a discount on players from Temple and Baylor though....lol.

I'm fine with it for all the reasons stated already. If he didn't ask for it then I doubt it happens. He feels like a Wilks type guy and no one in house is really setting up for next year...yet. If they still think they can compete after this weeks game then they will ride it out while failing unless the players start to ask to be let out of this mess. 

I know the whole Wilks angle in the optics of it all but he is not helping with the hopeless offense so it is all inevitable anyways and that guy is really coaching for a DC spot going forward at best anyways.

I predict Robbie Anderson will be the only player we wind up trading 

I think CMC, Shaq and any older player has fair odds pending their agent can find something realistic.  But there isn't much here to be desired on that front.  I think we have forever overrated Jackson and I don't think others would really want him. 

They make sense.  They aren't the youth.  They are the older  

Icky, Moton, Horn, Chinn, Burns, Browns, etc are probably untouchable ones pending their isn't some in house drama/issue specific to one of them that they can't work past.

Shaq and cmc to the bills for a first, 3rd and 4rth

they couldnt afford it. Haha.  They are in the negatives next year. They would have to come to terms that they couldnt extend Ed Oliver, Matt Milano, Gabriel Davis, AJ espenesa, and Jordan Poyer. 

 

Thats a lot of talent to have to let walk....

Why would next year matter? They would only have to pay their base salary for this year. About 1.5M combined. 
 

  Then the Bills can walk away. Both players lose significant value after the trading deadline.

    • I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.   
    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
