If they trade them both that D is going to get straight LIT UP. They're already bad and the only thing keeping them from being utterly atrocious is that pair of edge rushers.

Like I said earlier, I think they might be getting ready to make the switch from Rivera to Bieniemy.

(less emphasis on defense, more on offense)

I've been saying for weeks now they need to just cancel Rivera and give Bieniemy a test drive.

He has to quit his bad habit of completely abandoning the run. His OL sucks at pass protection and Howell is getting beat to poo. The kid is tougher than a $2 steak but damn... at some point the body will break.

OL play across the league pretty much sucks so I don't see anyone trading viable offensive linemen. You have a handful of good offensive lines and the rest of the league is varying levels of suck.

27 y/o Sweat instead of a 2nd rounder next year is nice for Chicago.  They can go full offense with the 2 firsts for a new coach.  

He's only under contract through the end of this season.

To keep him, they'll need to work out an extension or maybe franchise him.

I think they had discussions with him already on an extension before making the deal official. And franchise tagging him probably get him for cheaper for one season than a new contract would have.

Possible. Don't know yet.

Common complaint I've heard from Bears fans is that Poles won't extend their own players but is willing to trade away draft picks for players on expiring contracts.

This may or may not turn out to be an example of that.

This, Jamo or Jalen Johnson would be an excellent forward-thinking move. Probalby comes down to assets going out from Carolina, which will most likely be too expensive for us.

Still holding out hope that TMJ + 4th gets us a reuniting of Bryce and Jamo Williams.

Probably because they aren't "Poles Players" since he just joined. So all these guys on the team are from a previous regime and none are up for extensions yet.

Does that matter if they're still good players though? Jaylon Johnson certainly isn't a bad player.

Roquan Smith is one of the names mentioned in these complaints.

The vikings are fuging stupid.  With the injuries they have and Cousins walking its damn near criminal that they dont just roll with Hall and target a qb in the draft.    This is the stupid type of moves from front offices that drive me bonkers.  WTF do they really think dobbs is going to bring 8 weeks into the season?

      yeah, but the actual jersey Bryce Young is wearing is not the same jersey you are buying from Fanatics.

      By bandu · Posted

      i just feel like i read this he says she says poo all the time over & over again  on the internet  TV  work ,in public & then i think back to myself oh what a sick slandermongering world we live in now. ts just like those National Enquirer magazines you find in the grocery store at the checkout counter which are nothing more than complete & utter BS  & more often than not when you assume something then you make an ASS out of U & ME. so chill &  let the courts do their job & if he is guilty well he is guilty  LOL either or this has nothing at all whatsoever to do with Carolina Panthers football

      XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter
