What are your guys thoughts on this potential trade? My personal opinion is it’s unlikely due to the fact we already need to pay Burns, paying another elite DE would be very cap restraining. At the same time, Hunter would be a great scheme fit and we are lacking another true edge threat. Potentially you could argue due to Bryce starting on his rookie contract that we have the space to afford paying multiple premium contracts.

doesnt make sense bc he is in contract year and wants big money. We would trade for him with what little collateral we have and then spend cap on a player that would lead to us potentially losing another player we'd like to resign ... a la D. Brown/Chinn/TMJ (if he goes off)

Yeah, it's crazy how thin we are at CB given the resources we've spent in relatively recent years. I guess that happens when your top 10 pick is made of porcelain and your 2nd rounder pops an Achilles. Everyone is thin at CB if you take way both of their outside starters.

God it hurts when I hear the word pop, I hope I never have one of those injuries(I’m pretty safe on the couch I think).

Something has to give. You have to have a beastly front or a backend that can hold for 3+ seconds to compete. I wouldn’t be mad at all if they decided it was easier to do the former and make this happen. Is there any DB even worth a poo available?

Of course is it even possible? Probably not. And we will even be competitive this year for it to matter? Doubtful.

Still with our spotty front and hampered DBs…it’s not going to be good. But this is all part of accepting the fact we simply won’t be ready for a couple years. And we desperately need top picks to start blooming into a worthwhile starter or stop getting injured.

Jackson's at least put up some respectable (mostly full) seasons, even though his ceiling is below Horn's

If they can create a consistently strong pass rush, the backend doesn't have to elite.  

Nit saying we can't use more talent and CB, but I don't see any starting quality CBs laying around. 

Burns and Hunter rushing would be scary, two of the fastest edges in the league.

That's where I am at the moment. Whichever unit is stronger, it helps the weaker unit.

Between the two groups, when healthy, we're deeper at CB.

The available Pass rushers via trade/FA are better than the current CBs available via trade/FA. It'd be easier to upgrade the pass rushing unit, which would in turn help the DBs. The available DBs are a bunch of castoffs and JAGs.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks seem to be Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team). Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?
