Id be willing to give up for the right QB (which I think is CJ Stroud) 2023: 1st round and (1) of our 2nd round; 2024: 1st round, (mid round to late round), maybe include a conditional pick!

the most you’d be willing to give up for a franchise QB is one mid first rounder and some middle round fluff

gonna be a no for me dawg

He's sure as fug not a low end No. 1 WR.

How does he compare to Justin Jefferson, AJ Brown, Lamb, Adam’s, Kupp and the rest of the top 10?

if you could have DJ or one of the top 10 receivers as a GM, would you choose him ?

Look, DJ is tough, he is durable…he has improved in route running every single year and makes tough catches….

but a game breaker, he is not, even when CMC was on the team so all attention couldn’t go to him 

his flaws have been talked about many times, even by Steve smith. 

he is a serviceable mid level number 1 receiver but in teams like the Chiefs and KC, he is a WR2

Yeah, he's far more respected among non-Panther fans. When you consider the QBs he's had to endure, and still put up big yardage, yeah. I'd go top-16. Probably around 12-15.

I think he is in that massive clump of around 15-30.  

Once you make it past a somewhat clear cut top 10ish....you got the Lockett, Juedy, Higgins, Godwin, Cooper, Evans, McLaurin, and on and on types.  I mean, I think Panther fans put him at the top of that clump.  Not sure other fanbases put him at the top of it. 

I think DJ brings a clear cut level of consistency at the WR position.  But on an ideal roster, you would want him playing the Tee Higgins role across from the Chase.

I like DJ, but he’s more in the 25-35 range imo.

27) DJ Moore, Carolina Panthers

Just like Aiyuk, Samuel, and Waddle, Moore is a fantastic athlete that has leveraged his explosiveness and speed to turn into a great after-catch player but still lacks the finer details to be a high-level route-runner.

His hands have been an issue, but he does make up for it by reeling in passes that “should” have been incomplete. Though he can moonlight as a running back at times, he doesn’t have the strength of Aiyuk or Samuel and is a little more limited there. Nevertheless, Moore has been a big asset for Carolina and can threaten to score at any time.

and on PFF

25. D.J. MOORE, CAROLINA PANTHERS

Moore has battled bad quarterback play his entire NFL career. His rate of catchable targets over the past three seasons, in particular, ranks 62nd of 78 qualifying wide receivers. Despite that, Moore has still managed to rack up the fourth-most explosive receptions of 15-plus yards (84). The 2018 first-round pick earned a top-30 PFF grade in each of the past three seasons, with his best being an 82.2 mark in 2019.

Shouldn't penalize someone for bad QB play. His performance is not poor, nor is he a low-level WR1, if he gets wide open and the ball is delivered into the second row of the stands.

his ceiling so far is unknown because of his QB. it's all just potential. can't judge on potential. have to judge on what is known and demonstrated. what measure should be used to fit him into the top 15? what would make him better than those who have shown to produce more?

Also, the top tier guys? Take a Nuk Hopkins before his recent issues….was a freak show with Davis Mills.  He didn’t need Watson to make him elite.  

Moore’s ceiling IMO isn’t just limited by poor QB play.  He doesn’t have insane route running, hands or freak tools you see with the elite 1s.  DJ is just a well rounded good WR.  

from what we have seen to date, I think DJ is best described as having a high floor.  Everyone loves DJ.   Saying he is a 16-32 ish #1 isn’t hate.

He doesn't get open as well as you're portraying here. This site ranked him 89th in the NFL among wide receivers and tight ends at getting open in 2022: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/nfl-receiver-rankings/

    • I get the rookie QB formula and fully expected to see it implemented. Oh well. For the run game there was no or very little under center stuff until a good ways into the year. At least that is how I am remembering it. And no deep throwing - so stacked boxes which you can say chicken or egg on why.  Hard to run like that.  The QB that people said was so great was pulled for a designated Hail Mary thrower. That’s pretty unusual. And may speak to why we saw few deep balls in some part, along with the OL. To ignore that stuff means you aren’t working with all of the information when you try to mentally model or project what it might be like on the field.  Me, I have a slice of hope that he could maybe be NFL average but getting him to be a plus type of QB is a huge job. It depends on designing the playbook with certain values at the foundation that have to be adhered to first . You have to integrate the other pieces around this one guy’s skill set because he is a real outlier. And he has to learn the under center skill set. Maybe put that Only Positive thread back up people can go there if they don’t want to deal with rightly frustrated fans. 
    • Someone has to bare witness to what happens. It's hard to complain if you don't sit through it all. 
    • I do not pretend to be infallible or without flaws. I've been wrong on things over the years. We all have. Realistically most of what's been said here and on other Panthers fans social media platforms between the months of May and September for the last several years amounts to little more than spam. People drew lines in the sand over contentious takes on Bridgewater too. To the point of being asked if some people are really a Panthers fan over it. There will be reactionary spam during the season too particularly on gamedays. I've been reading these discussions on the huddle for 20 years. It's the same stuff rehashed the only thing that changes are the names in the front office the coaching staff and the roster. Some fans might be best served to stick to the official team social feeds if they are burned out on all this. Nothing wrong with that either. Different strokes for different folks. We're all human. As for the huddle. Honestly most of us post here out of habit. It's a habit hard to break. No different than the majority of the population that can't stop scrolling Facebook or X. Basically.....
