Kyle Bailey seems to be more and more convinced that Burns won’t be here after the trade deadline, so probably yeah

unfortunate to watch this team get so close to a competitive roster then start stripping down all the talent. Should’ve included Burns instead of Moore in the Bears deal. Offense is more valuable than defense, Moore was already signed, and he actually wanted to be here. 

A pass rusher is more valuable than a WR in a vacuum, but I completely agree with you here. I bet they made Burns untouchable, and now we're going to have to ship him out anyway for less after turning down two trades for him.

Last i seen higgins got cracked ribs, out 1-3 games.

 

Im like you, there are no #1 WR on the trade market. (i dont hold brown or even prime higgins as 1s)

i saw he was playing this weekend this morning. Did they announce they are sitting him? That timeline actually works out for us - if we did this

I still don't understand how people can honestly think Higgins isn't a #1

Far too often in today's NFL fans, they view things in terms of fantasy football, not real life football.

No, Higgins isn't a WR1 in fantasy football, he's "just a 2" for fantasy, but there are 32 teams in the NFL, if you don't think he's one of the top 32 WRs in the league, you don't know football.

No, he's not a Top 10 guy, but only 10 teams can have a top 10 guy, and that's if no teams have two of them (like the Dolphins might with Tyreek and Waddle).

But YES, Higgins is without question a WR1 in real life NFL football, no question about it.

Having said that, not sure the Bengals would give him to us for what I'd like, I'd do Burns for Higgins and a high pick (I'd like a first but don't think they do that, maybe a 2nd).  But I'm not sure they do that before they know they can't make a playoff run this year, and even then, not sure they're trading Higgins plus a pick for a player they have to give a big contract to, more likely will just trade Higgins for a pick.

Huh? Howell has Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson and Curtis Samuel as a slot (where he belongs). I'd trade every skill player we have for Terry Mclaurin.

Yoooo samuel LOL at that!! Samuel even healthy(another story), got what a barely above 500 yards twice in his 7 year career?? (i think) 

its scary terry and not much else form TEs, RBs, and 2-5 WRs. Plus LOLLOLOLO at their OL and paper its one of worst and hes still able to make play after play.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
