Thing is teams that have WRs worth trading for like Denver and AZ are looking for Capitol/have their ILB & S pretty wrapped up.

You have to find someone willing to take a one year contract for a player with no real position. 

Oh, he has a real position alright. His position is as a cover 3 SS.

I had previously sort of wondered if Chinn might be a potential trade piece. I can't recall the new staff really saying much at all about him. Then you see Von Bell signed who plays a similar style to Chinn... honestly, I hack EXPECT Chinn to be traded at this point

I think someone is getting traded. Losing DJ changed everything about what happened after they get their qb. They will either need more draft picks by trading someone or they will have to do a player for player trade or combinationofthe two. They do not have the cash for the top guys in FA without making more cash available somehow.

Losing DJ plus targeting D in FA. Chinn seems like a potentially valuable trade asset and we've made a move that makes him expendable. 

I don't like the thought of trading him but if he doesn't fit the scheme...

I didn't say it would be easy. I also didn't say it would necessarily be Chinn.

Oh I'm absolutely for trading for one of the WRs rumored on the market -- Jeudy, Sutton or Hopkins would make me content at #1 for at least the next two years.

I just think it'll take more picks.

If it gets us a stud wr I will not complain.  Drafts are full of tweeners on the defensive side of the ball.

It probably will take more picks if it's Chinn they are looking to trade.

I doubt it would get us a "stud". A Tyler Boyd level guy would probably be about the best we could do. But that's also a lot better than we currently have, so...

Fitterer will have to do something in FA. He cannot hope to fix this in the draft alone. Not in one offseason anyway.

Yeah, we cannot give up all we did to get a QB at #1 overall and then put these offensive skill position players around him. That would be criminal.

      XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By CRA · Posted

      my understanding is a big time throw, could be a 5-10 yard slant to Adam Thielen given AT isn't going to separate.

      It's a subjective stat that PFF made up. https://www.pff.com/news/pro-pff-qb-grading-most-effective-tool-there-is
