If you want to get the #1 pick from the Bears, what's your move?

I've been giving this some thought, and it's hard to see the Panthers going any other route this year than marrying a new HC with a new QB. If you have a guy that you love like Bryce Young, you have the capital to do it, so you make it happen. I have no idea what trade value would look like, but the Panthers have assets that would be a great fit for Chicago like Brian Burns and/or DJ Moore. I'm in the camp that likes Burns and would hate to lose him, but you have to believe he would be in play and is probably valued at around 2 first rounders+, himself.

I think Burns + our first rounder this year (#9) and the 49ers 2nd rounder would be in-play. I could be way off when it comes to value, but I think the Panthers can get that pick without sacrificing the future.

If you were the Panthers and coveted the #1 overall pick, what would be your move to get it from the Bears?

According to this: https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart.asp trade value chart. the Bears pick is worth 3000 while pick 9 is worth 1350, number 40 is worth 500 and number 60 is 300. That only gets us to 2150. Would likely take next years first as well. 

That's if there is no bidding war. If Chicago was smart they would leverage us against Indy and only trade down to 4 and be all but guaranteed either Anderson or Carter

 

I bet Bears fans are absolutely salivating at the possibilities right now but I wouldn't jump the gun if I were them. It's very rare for a team to trade up to #1 overall. Jacksonville tried like crazy to trade out of the 1 spot last year and no one would bite. I think teams in general are getting smarter about not hemorrhaging future picks.

With all so respect that was one of the worst drafts in recent memory to hold the top pick. Top end talent wasn’t there (I thought sauce should go first ovr personally). A draft class featuring Atleast 2 top 5 qbs and a plethora of teams in the league needing a qb = a massive bidding war.

Oh, and we likely lose said bidding war bc we won this week. But I’m sure that momentum we gained will be worth it! I can’t remember ever giving a damn about a meaningless week17/18 win but I can for sure remember lasting draft effects. Bring on the poo emojis tho I know this fanbase hates draft picks

If we lost, we'd be drafting 8th. Don't think that's going to cause us to lose a bidding war.

If they’d take Burns and Moore and leave all the draft capital I’d pull the trigger today 

Same.

Draft Young 1a

+  WR Johnson/Addison with 1b

+ TE Kincaid/Washington with 2a

+ WR Flowers/Rice with 2b

and let's build a proper offense.

Yesterdays win made the Panthers drop 1 spot in each of the two first rounds. And 5 in the fourth.. and 3 in the fifth....

From to.

8-> 9

39 -> 40

109 -> 114

143 ->146

Or am I wrong, gladly correct me.

We had a top 5 pick a month and some change ago. Now, we’re 9th and no playoffs lol. 
 

Might be too steep a climb to get from 9 to 1. If one of Stroud or Young make it to 3 or 4, you find a way to get up there. Honing in on that 3 from Arizona. We could probably get there.

I wouldn’t want number 1 in this draft. 3 or 4  maybe…. But 1 is overkill. 

Same. None of these QBs are worth mortgaging our future for. Arizona at 4 would be an interesting trade partner if the price wasn’t crazy. They don’t need a QB and it would depend if one we liked was still there or not.

    • My general thoughts on the roster as it stands right now:  - Most interesting positions to watch: TE, NT, WR.  - If we add a TE I feel like it'll be a bigger name FA or Kenyon Sadiq in the 1st round. I don't expect us to take a TE that early with our need at tackle, though, so it's likely one of the top FA TEs or we ride with Tremble/Sanders/Evans again. Signing a mid-level FA or drafting another mid-round TE isn't going to help us at this point. We have three of those guys already.  - I don't buy the 1st/2nd round WR hype. I do think we will sign someone to play the slot because XL is... not good. John Metchie, Juan Jennings and Calvin Austin would make sense if the money does.  - NT could be interesting because I don't get the sense that they view Bobby Brown as a true starter. This could be a position we look to add a veteran starter at or possibly take one early in the draft.  - Devin Lloyd was a huge addition, but we need another starter beside him. I fully expect us to go after one in the 2nd round. Jacob Rodriguez makes a ton of sense here.  - The Luke Fortner signing gives us a veteran fallback at center this season. I don't expect he'll end up being our long-term starter, but it's likely he will at least begin the year atop the depth chart. Even if we draft a center it's unlikely that player ends up being a day-one starter. But I think right now we're likely targeting a center in the 3rd-4th round as that seems to be where the value is.  - We have no punter on the roster. Interested to see if we sign a veteran or go the draft/UDFA route.  - The OT situation is pretty bleak. I now fully expect us to take a tackle at #19, but even after the Stone Forsythe signing we also need better depth there. Brady Christensen would be an idea re-signing; I also like Jamaree Salyer from the Chargers as a younger option that still has room to develop.  - Guard depth is also lacking. Again, having a versatile backup like Brady Christensen would go a long way toward having some security for our entire OL, but even if he comes back we should add another veteran backup, IMO.  - I assume Lathan Ransom would be the starting FS if we played today, but we know Evero loves him some Nick Scott so I won't be surprised if/when we re-sign him. He's basically the defensive version of David Moore, unfortunately. Ideally we'd look to add a true FS, but I don't get the sense that is a big priority at the moment.  - Nickel corner is a need and I fully expect us to sign someone in the next few days to upgrade over Chau Smith-Wade. Long-term, I won't be shocked if we go CB earlier in the draft than people might expect given Mike Jackson's contract expires after this year.  - I wouldn't be shocked to see us sign a RB. Sean Tucker or Brian Robinson could be interesting. We know what Chuba can do, but Jonathon Brooks has to be considered a question mark at this point.
    • Considering the Raiders and Crosby’s disagreements about his health late last year and the Ravens’ history of being an extremely well run organization I lean towards the Ravens not being in the wrong here
    • Hoping for Chig as the TE signing.  N'joku and Goedert are more proven and names, but give me the guy entering his prime that hasn't missed a game over the older guys with better stats but injury history.
