If Bryce busts, was that the worst trade in the history of the NFL?

If CMC ends up with a HOF career then the Panthers trade to the 49’ers ends up being the worst Panthers trade…..I was shocked by how little they got for one of the best offensive weapons in the game. He is more than a RB…..

 

Three of the four worst trade scenarios in Panthers history have happened in the Tepper era.

1. The Bryce trade

2. The CMC trade

3. Turning down the Burns offer

The other one being trading for franchise tagged Sean Gilbert.

Tepper is going to F this up even more and decide everyone needs to go and start auctioning off disgruntled defensive assets; Brown, Horne, Burns, Woods, etc. Those trades will also go down in history as bad trades as well.

they gave up more firsts. Imagine not having a first round pick not only next year but the year after too.

That got totally neutralized by them getting Purdy 

I guess If you're just completely focused on the trades themselves then sure.  But from a broad perspective if youre considering everything that happened, they were already loaded with talent and found another qb pretty quickly.  

We were bad team that got significantly worse with our #1 pick and if we don't solve it any time soon the trade up to 1 will seem even more egregious

Imagine having three straight winning seasons. That's what the Niners have had since that trade. Panthers fans can literally only imagine that.

Yeah, they blew that trade but what keeps it from being an all-time awful trade is the team success they've had in spite of it. Winning fixes everything.

And technically the Gilbert one wasn’t even a trade, it was signing a franchise tagged player

    • Appreciate that, bro!  And I could definitely see that with Cam.  Even though he’s a little younger than me, he is also someone I admire and feel a kinship with for a lot of various reasons. Funny enough, a few years after that encounter with Steve, I went to Charlotte with one of my friends whose brothers owned a moving company at the time.  He dropped me off uptown and went to work the day with them where I would wait until he got done and then we were gonna go to the Bobcats game that night.  So I walk all through that area for hours.  After awhile, I walk back towards the arena and sit in a bench on the backside of the arena, where the practice court and player’s entrance was.  As I’m sitting there, I look up and almost think I’m seeing things - I squint and blink my eyes a couple times just to be sure, and yes…  it’s one of my childhood heroes, Muggsy Bogues walking across the crosswalk and into the arena.  I think he was coaching the Sting then, iirc.  Part of me wanted to just say, “Hey!  Muggsy!  Thank you for the inspiration and memories!  You were one of my favorite players as a kid!”  But, I just watched him walk by and into the arena and thought, “that was cool!”  I also so Miguel Cotto a couple years back while in Orlando and told my kids who it was but didn’t say anything to him.  I think somewhere in my subconscious, that encounter with Steve really made me feel like the gamble on finding out if they’re receptive to interaction just isn’t worth finding out.  At the end of the day, no matter if they’re receptive inspired us or were a hero, unless they initiate it, I likely never will…  because again, they’re humans just like us.  Not anymore unique or special, they just have a highly visible and very public job that we get to watch and in some ways participate.  So, I just appreciate it for what it is.
    • I'm pleasantly surprised they gave it to Bryce Young over Josh Allen. Finally we're getting some respect. Now I'm just hoping the team follows this up accordingly and doesn't lay another egg.
    • What weird blood red moon has cast its spell?  What’s next, dogs and cats sleeping together? Bonus question:  Did Canales open up his playbook or did Bryce find an extra high gear in his stick shift?
