I mean we did buy the publicity. But it’s short lived. Once the season starts if we are good, we are going to get publicity. If we are bad, it’s going to be like everyone other year for us. 

I dont know about that. Whichever qb we take is gonna have a lot of interest as long as they are on the field. Especially the Young Vs Stroud narrative. Just about guaranteed to keep both teams relevant.

Publicity? Winning is what matters and all the publicity in the world will get us zero(O) wins.

#1 pick and we're getting the runt.

But that runt is going to be hoisting the Lombardi  for us when he wins both the NFL and Superbowl MVP.

He might have to have help lifting it, but he'll  lift it, dammit.

Also Young going undefeated all season, undefeated in the playoffs, and win the SB which has never been done except for the 72 Dolphins when they did it by going undefeated all season and won the SB. We would be right behind them. Mess with the Patriots and show them how to go undefeated all the way to the SB. I know this is just a dream thought but you never know.

"A runt of the litter appeals to many buyers. Runts are frequently the heroes in fiction and movies. The runt at eight weeks is a true survivor. Much like the fictionalized runts, the runt puppy has beaten the odds and has continued in its quest for life. The runt stands out among its many same looking littermates. Its diminutive size can be very attractive to many different buyers."

Ok,  then after week 8 , I'm hoping we have our hero    🙂

Ive heard so many criticisms about what it cost the Panthers to swap first round picks with the Bears.

Too many picks in return, 25yo WR in his prime, ect.

No clear number one QB.

Since the trade, 90% of news about the NFL in general and 100% of draft coverage includes the Panthers. 

You cant buy that kind of publicity. 

100% worth it to me.

I'd rather have publicity during the season.  If you're getting publicity during the offseason it means you suck.

Panthers should have stood pat and traded up next season.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By TD alt · Posted

      You see, I just don't subscribe to a cookie cutter type of philosophy when it comes to trades or team building. Every situation is different. Many may disagree, but I think that FOs that can't draft impact-players beyond the first round aren't really viable.  Just for argument's sake, because we all know this hypothetical trade is as realistic as the moon being made of cheese, Micah is a young dawg really just beginning his prime and is arguably the most valuable pass rusher in the league. He could realistically play at a high level for at least the next five to seven years. Parsons' current trajectory is Canton. That being said, he's not some old merc that fits the mold of "one piece away," he's a core piece to any defense for the better part of the next 10 years. Pass rushers of his caliber and age don't generally become available, so, sure, he'd help an elite team, but he's also a fit for a younger team that's building. I know that you don't agree, but it's all good. I respect your rationale.

      Here's my not important take on this subject.  Who wouldn't want a pass rusher of his consistency?  I would absolutely love to have him on this defense.   Would I give up Brown in a trade for him.  Nope, I would never do that.  Interior linemen are way to important to be settling for whatever you can get at the position.   Would I trade 2 firsts,  plus fork out a big contract for him?   Without knowing if Young is for sure going to be our long term, franchise guy,  there is no way I'd be okay with letting go 2 firsts. As for the contract that he'd demand, I just dont get caught up with NFL contracts.  They have been out of control for decades.  So I really dont get upset over big contracts. It's just a fact of life in the NFL.  You HAVE to pay for talent.
