He also said the trade was bad for the Panthers.  He seems like a moron

I mean we gave up a metric ton for the pick.

If we get it wrong we've set the franchise back 3 years.

Damn this is a deep dive on Paulines pretty rough track record of rumors/predictions

This feels a bit dramatic. The only assets we gave up that could hinder us were the 2024 1st and DJ. I love DJ but he's not impossible to replace. And that first rounder next year should be a late round pick.

To add a little context...

Just a few days ago, 4MR said he was tired of talking to Stroud and Young fans so he was going to become a Richardson fan.

He's trolling.

Some of us were on that train weeks ago.

This is stupid. If AZ trades down its with a suitor for a QB and they take AR or Levis.

I mean you don't have a first round pick or second round pick next year to replace him.

You also, basically, gave away McCaffrey to make this trade happen too (we traded THAT second round pick).

We have our second next year, we don’t have a second in 2025.

Could also blow the lid off this draft if the Texans aren't goo-goo gaga over Stroud.  Ryans may want a *potential monster like Anderson.  

Then that could throw AZ into a tizzy without their expected man there.  Could trade down w/SEA for example.

And the Colts would still be screwed hehe.  

1-CAR Bryce Young

2-HOU Will Anderson

3-SEA (from AZ) CJ Stroud

Now THAT, that would be wild.  

Texans are going to take one of Stroud or Young. I feel pretty comfortable in that. So they will be taking Stroud

The draft is not the only way to replace WR production. And unless I'm mistaken, one of the factors that led to us trading CMC was to amass draft capital in order to move up for a QB.

At the end of the day I just don't think this trade leaves us in as dire a position as you're making it seem.

Mike Lombardi agrees with Chris Mortensen. Clearly Carolina is dominating the smokescreen game.

For me, I think things are trending towards Young, and I think it's been that the whole time, I'll eat my crow if I'm wrong on draft night.

I think the reality of this is slowly starting to hit. Carolina is all in on Young and are giving Stroud all the opportunities to change it. I think they will stick to their guns though.
