I haven’t been this Happy/Excited with this team in years. HAPPY PEOPLE REJOICE THREAD

Remember the last time we were in the playoffs? Remember that feeling? It’s been a very long time. We have an A+ coaching staff, and a brand new franchise QB on the way. Free agency is Monday and we will fill a lot of holes between now and draft time when we get to pick the future QB of our franchise along with picks in Second-rounder (No. 39 overall)
Third-rounder (No. 93 overall)
Fourth-rounder (No. 114 overall)
Fourth-rounder (No. 132 overall)
Fifth-rounder (No. 145 overall)

WHAT AN EXCITING TIME!!!!! HOW EXCITED ARE YOU FOR THIS OFF-SEASON??

We would never get a future picture like this with a Darnold, Carr, etc. We have our golden ticket and this could be a franchise Savior, or worst case we repeat the last few years but at least we are doing everything possible to get our QB.

What a time to be a Panther fan…..

I've read, re-read and triple read the compensation package to be sure I understood it right. It's certainly below what the Bears were said to be expecting.

Yeah...I'm happy 😁

The Bears wanted a sure thing in DJ instead of another lottery ticket.

Smart.

Exactly.  Losing DJ certainly does hurt going into next year, but this is a massive, massive long-term W.  The draft compensation outside of DJ was honestly minimal

The past 5 years have been brutal for Panthers Nation.  We actually have a plan and vision going forward.

We never, ever had than under Rhule.  It was done half-assed the whole way.

This is a true new beginning.

You're right.  Now try explaining that to the people on this board who can't understand why the Panthers weren't willing to part with Burns, who plays a position that is much, much harder to hit on than receiver.

Exactly. People around here and twitter saying we got fleeced are ridiculous. I thought it was going to take A LOT more than this to move up all the way to #1.

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
