Because Fitterer will choose the wrong player. 

Man you live a sad life, sh*tting on this deal because boohoo we're not the team of Fox/Rivera anymore.

Go touch grass my friend.

Ive heard some talking head say this- "Its much easier to find a good-great WR than good-great QB". 

Talking heads should probably be referred  to as talking asses. Wrong more than right and still get paid somehow.

I think most the people upset must have just bought a DJ Moore jersey.

Panthers got fleeced in the Darnold, Mayfield and Corral trades, why should I believe this trade is any different.

Honestly the price doesn't feel THAT extreme. I think both teams can feel pretty good about the deal they made. Now it's time to see how it all plays out. Sometimes the "winners" of a trade end up not winning when it's all said and done. The Chargers got an absolute haul from the Giants for Manning and hit some home runs with those picks but when it was all said and done the Giants won two SBs and the Chargers rarely kade any noise in the postseason.  Gimme them rangs.

I probably rechecked the trade terms about twenty times

Couldn't believe we got the #1 for what was quoted, but it's true.

I don't think either team got fleeced. I do think a lot of this fanbase significantly underestimates DJ Moore's value and that might lead them to believe that we fleeced the Bears.

Yep, both teams likely improved with this trade.

Win, win situation.

Fitterer seems to be good at those.

Handy skill to have, too. Teams like to trade with you when that happens.

some people just can’t be happy unless they’re bitching

Remember a couple folks saying we got "raped" in the deal. To me, this doesn't even qualify as someone telling an offensive joke in front of us.

Due to previous trades/picks, I'm not quite on onboard the "Fitterer is a good GM" express just yet.

However, Panthers management likes to tell us these sort of decisions are a collaborative effort and I have no reason to doubt that. 

So, what I'm willing to say is this: 

Fitterer and Tepper are now keeping company with a much more knowledgeable group of collaborators.

Hopefully, that makes for much better results from here on out.

That doesn’t even make any sense. What do they have to do with anything 

[WUnderhill]

The Bears traded a first, a fourth, and a fifth to move from 20 to 11 to take the 4th QB in a draft.

The 49ers traded 2 firsts and a third to move from 12 to 3 to take the 3rd QB in a draft.

We traded a first, 2 seconds, and DJ Moore to move from 9 to 1 and take the first QB off the board.

And some of y’all are actually complaining lol.

Reading the reaction on reddit and social media you'd think DJ was at the level of Chase, Hill, Brown, Jeffreson, lol
