We got raped in that trade.  I said it before when it happened.  I say it again now.  And mark my word, I'll say it again years from now.

The trade for the top pick in the draft? I’ve heard very few people (aside from the ones that don’t like Bryce) hate on that trade. Giving up Moore next year’s first and a future 2nd to move up to the top pick in the draft is solid as far as value goes. Look what the Niners did for Lance who was pick 3. The Texans traded pick 33 plus next year’s 1st and 3rd to move up to pick 3. The value was solid whether you like the pick or not is a different story.

I still think to this day the bears really effed up and couldnt have traded at least 2x back possibly 3.  Flip with Houston, then go to 5 and possibly again to 9.

Yeah they got a mid second, one first next year, a future second, and a solid young WR. Hell AZ got pick 33, next year’s 1st and 3rd for pick 3 on a non QB player.

The issue is the Panthers wanted to move to 1 for their guy. Not 2 and hope your guy falls. Or 3. So why would they trade up to 2 or 3 if they knew Houston wanted a QB and they weren’t sure who it would be. 
 

Both teams won this trade. It’s fair value for both sides. We got our guy and if he doesn’t pan out we haven’t set the franchises future back by mortgaging a bunch of future firsts. 
 

The Bears stuck with Fields and if he doesn’t work out then they have a high first rounder, and if folks here think we aren’t a playoff team then they have two high first rounders to chase Drake Maye and Caleb Williams.

You are completely wrong OP

Chicago is getting a top 3 pick and Marvin Harrison Jr.

Panthers moved the ball Cams preseason. I remember that Cincinatti touchdown rush and thought "holy poo, this guy might be something special".

Panthers have shown a grand total of absolutely nothing so far. O-line sucks, defense sucks, this new kicker sucks, offense skill positions not in sync. 

Its gonna be bad. I will be shocked if the Panthers get more than 4 wins this year.

Double correction the 1st pick.

 

Caleb Williams for sure will be a Chicago Bear.

 

 

Top two picks = Caleb Williams and Marvin Harrison Jr to pair with Kmet, Moore, Herbert and Johnson is a pretty nice offense. And maybe their line will be healthy next year.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
