Why do we have negative Nancy’s about trading for #1?

You’re really worked over DJ Moore who’s basically a smidge better than Gabe Davis?

 

WRs can be had as FAs or cheap trades, in fact I’m glad we kept a third 1st round pick!!!

 

in case you’ve missed, we haven’t had a solid QB1 since 2018, 4 years of disastrous QB play

 

 instead of hoping or settling Carolina got aggressive and I’m honestly surprised at the trade package we didn’t give up more.

This site is a beautiful reminder that nothing will ever be perfect. We won't ever all agree on something. And that's life.

I can see it now, it's 11pm EST Super Bowl evening - Stroud is raising the Lombardi. I'm on the huddle 30 beers deep...and what do you know - someone comments "most boring super bowl ever lol" "that's the only one we'll get until blah blah blah".

The way I look at it is that we traded away two first round picks for the number one pick.  The other stuff isn't really all that worrisome - including DJ Moore.

You're going to give any first round rookie QB at least two years anyway.  By the time we find out what our rookie has (or doesn't have) we'll have a first round pick again.  I just don't see the problem.

We did really good. We only gave up 1 first rounder. We still have a high second this year. We still have all our picks next year besides the first rounder. Then we only gave up a 5th rounder in 2025. And DJ is easily replaceable. I don't think we got robbed like so many are saying. We have our choice of QB and control the draft

I can see it. "Can't believe yall are excited about a one and done Superbowl team.  We should have tanked to assure multiple Lombardis."   Some people are never happy.

But we only traded away 1 first round pick. We just swapped firsts this year. We only lose 1 first

I'm not completely blown away about it but it's fun and that's the point. 

Panthers huddle is like a canoe packed full of baboons. Every ripple that hits the canoe is going to cause a monkey fight on that canoe. So a wave like this is bound to create reactions.

Exactly!

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
