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

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

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.

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.

    • im a big believer in strong  o lines in general and really strong  olines for not so strong  QBs and we have one if those not so strong  QBs, plus with one LT done for the year and another that is aging with knee issues, a versatile tackle, on a rookie contract for the second most important position on the team, is a good thing    from cat crave Dean Jones    “If Francis Mauigoa (Miami) made it this far down the pecking order, it would be a difficult proposition to turn down.   The Miami prospect might not have the prototypical length associated with premier offensive tackles, but you wouldn't know it. His pass protection is exceptional, which is matched by a strong base on running plays and enough athleticism to make a difference at the second level when opportunities arise. Mauigoa can play either tackle with ease. This makes him a short-term replacement for Ekwonu and a potential long-term successor to Moton. And if fans don't think this is possible in the first round, they haven't been paying close enough attention.”   Excerpt From “Carolina Panthers 7-round 2026 NFL mock draft: Pushing forward edition” Cat Crave https://apple.news/AYEo7NKteR6mIGHtthRnzZQ This material may be protected by copyright.
    • I don't know their cap situation, but if they're able to pick up Malik Willis or Mac Jones, they could be trouble. Hell, they were only one game worse than us last year. If Cousins had played all season, who knows?
    • I think it is funny that we label coaches without considering their circumstances.  Bill Belichick has a .449 winning percentage as a head coach when Tom Brady was not under center.  He will be a Hall of Fame coach. Stephanski, on the other hand, was asked to function in the shadow of the Watson crippling signing, one that he opposed (as it came out recently).  I am not quite sure what to think of him, but I am not dismissing him as a bad coach.  He had the worst situation in the NFL the entire time he worked there.  Frustrations mounted between him and the players over the six years he was there, but the dysfunction was manufactured in the front office.
