Trade Brian Burns straight up for Sean Payton 

Dear God yes, then Payton will scheme to run it right past Burns for a billion first downs

I would absolutely give up #9 pick for Sean 

Fug that pursed-lip, bounty tossing, smug ass MF.

I've seen him once at Chima's on a Saturday night before a Panthers / Saints game.

 

The guy is an immense prick but with that said I would gladly have him coach this hapless franchise

It feels dirty. Really dirty but we can't pass up on just what we need, Payton or Harbaugh.

I don't expect some huge bidding war for Sean Payton.  He's 59 years old and what assurances does a team have that he is in it for the long-run?  I think teams have it set in their mind what they are willing to give up, so I don't think this raises or lowers the asking price for him.

I'd honestly be fine with a future 1st, not 9th overall this year but 2024 sure. He'll get a 1st or more from whoever he winds up with IMO.

I agree with this.  I might be a little uneasy but that's it.  Ensuring you get a top 5 (at worst top 10) head coach would be worth it.  However preferably I'd rather give up multiple 2nds.  But we'll see.

I really really really don't think we get him and honestly I'd much rather have someone like Ben Johnson or Steichen, but I'm no fool.  Sean Payton is a proven HC.  So definitely good on us for doing our due diligence.

He was a good RB for a couple seasons but he needs more experience.

Wild thought - adding Payton to the list is simply a smokescreen for the one remaining Rooney candidate (whoever that may be) to convince them Tepper hasn’t settled on Ben Johnson.  Add a high profile non-minority to the list…brilliant move

Panthers offseason has already been more exciting than their regular season

Per me and Adam Schefter 

One reliable source--who is this Adam Schefter guy?

Anymore, nothing would surprise me

no way this happens or would be worth the cost but it's nice to see the Panthers competing / doing their due diligence for this sort of thing. JR would never.

[Shocker]

Do not want…please don’t give up picks for this guy
