And in the process miss one of the most talented QB drafts in recent memory. There’s so much talent coming out in 2024 it’s almost stupid. Imagine not trading DJ, sucking this year, and being in play for Caleb Williams. That’s what we fugged ourselves on. 

Yeah but that poo sometimes get said about some pretty disappointing classes in hindsight. 

I mean, has Sunshine down in Jacksonville really turned into a generational talent? Just one example of how those hype trains can sometimes get out of hand.

Guys, Bryce will be fine. I don't think that trade sets us back as badly as you all think. It only sets us back if he sh*ts the bed on actually working around the trade. 

And get outta here with that CMC talk. Paying that one player would have set us back more than the trade did. 

I am not a Fitterer apologist by any means, but I think the premise of this thread is a bit dramatic.

trade for Gilmore, did not resign. 
trade for CJ Henderson for a 3rd, dan Arnold. 
Trade for Shenault. 
Trade for Bryce. (2 1st, 2 2nds, and DJ Moore)

Traded CMC for a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th 

Rams offered 2 1st, 2nd for burns. Last year of contract, no extension. 

Got cute and took local fav CJ Horn over Pat Surtain. Tepper sucks and so does Fitterererer.

Jesus this fanbase sucks.

2 games into his rookie year and he's already been written off.

Unbelievable.

The knives are out for Reich too.  A few weeks ago the Huddle was completely in love with Reich and his dream-team of coaches.

Yes, this fanbase sucks.

I'm kind of on the other side as time goes by.

I honestly get packaging Moore to make a trade for a top QB.  It sucked, but you swallow that pill, take the gamble, if you think you found your guy. I understand the gamble.

What I still really don't understand, is we had a perpetual OPOY candidate, 26 years old, one of the biggest stars in the NFL, the best possible guy to have for a rookie QB, and the first step we take into a rebuild was giving him away to the top team in our own conference for a few mid-rounders.  No players in return, just a few draft picks.  

Someone, please explain that to me.  

I guess it made some sense at the time to collect assets, but we didn't blow the team up! We tried a soft reset.  The more that time goes by, I'm trying to understand exactly what we were trying to accomplish with that.

All that about CMC would make sense if the team didn't so dramatically improve in all phases after we got rid of him.  He was too much of a security blanket.

      Little worried about Jarvy Shoulder and that torn cuff, it's needed surgery for 2 years now and he's gonna play with it injured again next season.    I like the toughness but would definitely prefer it to be fixed. He's an intritical player on the team going forward.    Also I was high on pain pills last time I wrote about saving cap space but I didn't go into detail cause I wouldn't have been able to do so. "still on a ton of pain medication but not as nearly as many, think I'm down to 23 pills a day from 32 a few days ago, 18 of them are for pain management in some form or another."     But I digress let's get to the point I was trying to make in my last post about saving, I'll now use Jarvis as an example.    Let's say the canes spend 23m of the 28m in space they have available. Then have Jarvis get surgery and put him on LTIR at the start of the regular season.  You let the cap space sit til the trade deadline. At the deadline that cap space would have accural on it and the team can use that space and spend 24m on incoming salary for the rest of the season. Let's say they bring in 5 players and send out two. "player A has an 8m AAV contract" he'd cost Carolina 4m the rest of the season. Player B makes 10 "cost of 5. So forth and so forth.  Using that accural system and the Jarvis LTIR, the Canes could then go into the playoffs with a healthy Jarvis and be 19m over the cap legally for a cup run. The more cap space available at the start of the season, the larger the accural would be at the trade deadline.    That was the first part of what I was going to try and articulate the other day but I'm on 35mg of oxy every 6 hours plus ketorolac and two other pain pills and another for kidney spasms.    Have a wonderful night everyone

      Will history repeat itself and Carolina make it to NFCCG this year?

      The main thing that makes the NFL so appealing is how unpredictable it is
