We even messed up on tanking

The goal of tanking is to get a QB, as long as they finish with a top 2 pick they’ve achieved that goal

the teams who do finish with a top 2 pick probably aren’t moving off that regardless of whatever draft capital you offer them

besides if you’re really desperate to outbid those guys will still have immense trade value come draft season

Burns is still our best pass rusher and one of the leaders on Defense.

We need help at both LB and Edge. Not only is there no competent threat across from him there's literally no depth to spell him or wear out the o-line.

It's so weird how you guys think causing MORE roster problems will suddenly fix the roster problems we had but you know, again, post lost reactionary huddle takes are the funniest.

Trading Moore for a one was a nonstarter. He's arguably worth more than that now, especially with his relatively decent contract. The dead money wasn't worth just a first alone. If they had added a second, then yeah, but a first was basically nothing.

Not trading Burns was ill-advised in my opinion (bordering on crazy). But, Burns is still young, and will still have high value once mid-March rolls around. Hell, he added a sack today. 

Like I said in another thread, if we add a more complete DE and a more complete WR, we'll maximize Burns' and Moore's effectiveness and productivity.

These QB's some people want us to tank for sure don't look like Cam Newton or Andrew Luck types to me. And who the hell wants to sit there and have no fun while cheering on their team to lose so they can come here bitching about how bad their team is right after yet the entire time wanting them to lose anyhow. Seems like a toxic shitty way to do a fan experience but what the hell do I know anyhow I guess.......

But, But, but we can have all those 1sts round draft picks and rebuild with unknowns.  Come On, Man

So to make Burns and Moore useful we need a real DE and a real #1 WR, gotcha.

So we are paying them like superstars to be complimentary pieces, sounds about right for the Panthers.

One of the few good posts here, most others appear alcohol-induced nonsensical blurbs....

Explain what keeping burns has done for us?

We now have the right to give him a mega contract that he is not going to be worth. On a winning team Burns is only in on clear passing downs, he cannot stop the run, why is that so hard to see? 

He is only a pass rusher and he isnt even a top 5 guy at doing that.

You same guys will be wishing we had those first round picks in 2024/25 when we are paying burns 20m a year and he is still only getting 8-9 sacks and getting abused in the run game.

    • This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.  
    • I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it. 
    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
