At this point it doesn’t matter. It was a bad move to decline that trade but we can’t let that prevent any future moves.

Agreed. Sunk cost fallacy. Yesterday's price is not today's price. Fitt fumbled the ball with that (non)move, but if you're not prepared to pay Burns $28-30m per then you gotta move him.

The whole reason they’re moving on from Higgins is they can’t afford him and Chase after paying Burrow. How would they pay him what he wants with the Chase extension coming?  I want burns as a Panther but at this point expecting a tag and trade. Also would love to send him to Detroit for Jameson Williams and a pick.  Also Chicago has the cap. Could get our pick back but then looks like we got fleeced.

decline rams-burns trade and then trade away our best WR since Steve smith because "receivers are easier to replace than premier pass rushers"

to now, unable to resign Burns and having a bunch of slow bums at WR

DJ wasn't elite but he was very solid especially in the short and intermediate game along with his YAC. Which is perfect for QB play style like Bryce's and the "offense" we seen the past two games. not only that, he was on a reasonable contract

It's going to be a buyers market for him this time around because whoever gets him knows they'll have to pay him after half a season.

If we could get back into the 1st round and a handful of pocket lint, I'd do it. Burns could have a great career just getting swapped around to teams that feel they are a pass rusher away from a title.

As if anybody who would have traded for him last year didn't know he was up for a massive new deal then?

I think it would more have to do with tying so much money up in 3 offensive skill positions.  Burrow, Chase and Burns is a much smarter investment than those 2 and Higgins.

I'm afraid the Panthers front office has the same football acumen as some of the posters. 

Rhule sure did, getting rid of Bridgewater after the one season, the only reason were even competitive that season and he and his offensive guru Brady were being crowed about. 

To becoming a laughing stock onward. 

If we get rid of Burns now after saying no to the Rams trade and sending Moore to Chicago just turn the GM position over to AI see what it can do.

I kinda had the same feeling roll across my mind but there’s got to be someone of near equal value and I’m not sure who that would be.


also Michael Pittman is currently not under contract with Indy next season

Yeah pittman, a splash. I wish this franchise would go all in on skill positions

      Yes, more recently. The way duke fans act you'd think they'd won five of the last ten or something crazy when they've actually won zero if the last ten. They haven't even even played in a championship ship game in the last decade. Carolina has played in three. For all the elite NBA talent that has come through Durham, duke is in a woeful championship drought. Duke fans used to talk all kinds of poo about how Carolina failed to win titles with Stackhouse/Wallace and Carter/Jamison and honestly they had a point. We should've gotten a title or two out of those teams. But man, duke's current run of elite talent with no titles puts that to shame.

      A Zietlow (observer) 3 centers to consider for draft

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      In response to mailbag questions about drafting a center from Observer, Zietlow gives this infO  From Alex The Panthers, after all, aren’t going to be as stacked with interior offensive linemen who can be converted into centers as they were last year. Cade Mays is already gone to Detroit. Austin Corbett moved on to Buffalo. Brady Christensen might still come back, but his future is murky too … and he ruptured his Achilles five months ago.   Keylan Rutledge. The guard out of Georgia Tech has received high marks in the pre-draft process, and if he drops to the Panthers at No. 51 somehow, they should take him. He worked at guard and center during the 2026 Senior Bowl.   Jake Slaughter. The 6-foot-5, 303-pound center out of Florida really impressed at the NFL Scouting Combine in February, notably with a 5.1-second 40-yard dash time. He’s a center by trade, and coach Dave Canales likes athletic centers who can get to the second level of the defense. Slaughter is projected to be a third- or fourth-round pick.   Billy Schrauth. Another draft, another Notre Dame draft pick?At least, it’s possible with Schrauth, the 6-foot-5, 310-pound interior offensive lineman and team captain. He spent most of his college career at guard, but reports indicate a transition to center would be easy for him. He’s projected to be a Day 3 pick.
