Last year i called it, I felt since we were under pressure to win we would trade our first round pick. I gots lucky.

I feel like they're addicted to it. They've supposedly been on the "hot seat" for 3 years now. 2012 draft will be pretty deep if they'res a lockout. More insentive to trade now.

Hell even if they trade peppers I'd be they'd still do it.

So, if they do another draft day trade, you want them gone before they can get results? lol.

The players they got in the last two drafts have all had impacts.

I'm hoping they don't have the leeway to perform any mega-trades this draft, considering we don't know who our coach/GM will be after this season. That, and we're living on the credit card as far as draft picks at this point.

You can only justify so many "FINAL PIECE OF THE PUZZLE" choices when you're losing out on depth picks and not making any headway into the postseason regardless.

Them getting fired during the actual draft would be pretty entertaining, btw. Imagine the dramatic zoom in on the Panthers war room.

Im still troubled by the trade last year. I was a little stunned really. Trade a 1st rounder...for a somewhat early 2nd rounder? still doesn't make sense to me at all. And I also dont see whats so impressive about brown? Def not worth a 1st round pick, the guy played how many snaps this past year? might as well just have kept our 1st rounder this year. But just my opinion. (16/17 in the 1st round at that.)

If we trade a 1st...we need to get a 1st in return.

to do this a big time DT or WR would have to drop into a spot we could move up without trading our 2nd rounder.

if dan williams, brian price or golden tate fell into the 2nd, i would move next year 1st for 1, and hope to fill the other holes in the 2nd and 3rd.

i would love to get DT brian price with a traded pick, CB kyle wilson with our current 2nd, and WR dezmon briscoe in the 3rd. personally idk if wilson last that long, and there are 2-3 other CBs that i see being in the mix in the 2nd, but wilson is my favorite of them all. wilson is also a great returner, good athlete, and has a great motor. guy loves to get after it.

i could also see us jumping up to snag lafell too, but imo he is a boarder line 1st rounder in this draft or next draft. idk, but i dont like that idea as much (kinda did that with brown, but his stock could have gone up with another year in school idk).

      Not looking good for TB. Buffalo and Habs fans are the worst so I will be cheering for the meteor.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Arguing about who had what and who did what with more is just going to end in the same charades. If we're going to waste a lot of hot air arguing then make it about something that cannot be denied. What you are seeing with your own two eyes. Cam Newton was a tremendously talented athlete albeit flawed in fundamental aspects. And although he played poorly in and lost a Super Bowl you cannot deny him that more often than not through his prime his teammates knew they could count on him to hold up his end of the bargain usually and be a key driving force for keeping them in games. Giving his defense much needed rest and motivation in wanting to match his grit as a competitor. That aspect is just not there with Bryce Young. Yeah he's dumped on the Falcons in a dome twice but what about his other 44 games? When has the Panthers defense the last three years ever looked at their starting quarterback and thought to themselves "man I'm so glad he's my QB"?

      Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.
