Would you do it (trade)

What pick would you take straight up for Horn today? 

I would obviously take a 1st, 2nd and consider a 3rd but probably not at this point. Anything less and I would just hold onto him to see what happens and if somehow he actually beats the odds to play a full season. 

I wouldn't even consider Jeudy though. Bryce has so many issues and limitations at this point that I don't feel as if Jeudy would be of any help at all to him.

I'm listening if a team is offering a 3rd.  A 2nd is an instant yes.

How many times has that happened? 

CMC is probably heading that direction. Was injured a lot here in his last 2 years, but goes to a grass surface and good OL, and he stays healthy.   Funny, but that would put Horn and Surtain in the same defensive backfield.   As with QBs, we should have taken Surtain and not Horn.

This hypothetical trade depends on your willingness to keep Horn on the field.  Someone said no to the trade, and yes to a third rounder for Horn.  JJ had 52 catches last year and over 750 yards.  He has improved each of his three years in the NFL--now, for him and considering his draft position, that is underwhelming, but most third rounders never get to that level. 

So how good is that?  The average NFL passing attack in 2023 averaged 219 yards per game.  Jeudy averaged 44 yards per game.  Considering that the running backs catch some passes, subtracting from that figure, I will use Chubba Hubbard's numbers--pretty average (14 yards per game).  The rough average for TEs per game is 41 yards.  Breaking that down, Jeudy had about 27% of the yardage for WRs on his team, based on these overall NFL numbers.  Expecting him to improve in year 4 due to his progression and the fact that it is a contract year, I would expect that number to rise above 30%.   What would a third rounder give you?

It is all about projecting the future, but people on this board and in general treat contracts as rewards for past performance.  While the past is an pretty good indication of future performance in business, it is more complicated in the NFL.  For example, would I pay Derrick Henry a boatload of money?  Heck no.  He has been a beast and his track record is strong, but according to the statistics, he is past his prime and should decline rapidly over the next two years.  He will want a three-four year deal.

I think I would keep Horn the more I think about it,. but I would also worry that this soccer turf might be injuring Horn.  I would want to see the data, and if Tepper is unwilling to change it, we should predict more time on the IR.

this is the worst trade deal in the history of trade deals

we just traded 2 first round picks and DJ Moore for a starting QB nearly the size of my middle schooler.

I suggest the Panthers give Jayce Horn, who can be a shut down corner, another year to see if he has shaken the injury bug.

If he remains healthy this year I feel he is a keeper but if he shows he is still injury prone, then it is time for him to be moved in a trade.

Hey Web MD I just cut off my left hand is it a good idea to cut off my right one too? Don't want to be asymmetrical

    • Every year it looks like someone does a sales pitch to Tepper and that's what he goes with. It's also why it has been a horror show on the outcome side.  The hard thing about Bryce is he is likable so people not only like him but feel like they need to defend the good guy. If he was a jerk like Wilson was on the Jets then they could just have signed a QB off the heap to try and Baker into the playoff this year while being justified but not with Bryce. I can't believe people let McG scam them. I guess some people have money to burn and like to be sold regardless of reality. 
    • Fun game last night.  Defense on both sides really was good. 
    • alright im going to post seriously here for a second what you are seeing with bryce young is the confluence of some well understood cognitive phenomenon: mistaking what you want to happen for what is happening and working backwards from there (call this working backwards from a conclusion/cognitive dissonance, im sure im mixing up the terms a little here), and getting scammed and defending the scammer (call this the gregor macgregor affect i don't know there's probably a term somewhere, google is unusable.) People who care a lot about the Panthers want them to have a good player at the most important position in the game, and the Panthers gave up a ton to be in position to take one, and they took one, so that must be the good player. There is obviously an overload of available information any lay person can find that they can use to convince themselves that what they wanted was happening. to the lay person, it was aggressively obvious right away that it wasn't going to work out. it was clear halfway through the first quarter of the atlanta game he did not belong in the nfl. a bird's eye view of the season shows at best the second worst season ever. But people who really wanted something to be true cannot accept this, and instead pick apart details or blame things or wishcast into the future or move goalposts to defend it because they cannot accept that what they wanted and what they believed they had is actually....not there. People do this all the time. I've got a patient right now in late stage frontotemporal dementia and her POA just will not listen to me or hear what I'm saying because he was told I'm an amazing provider with inpatient neuro experience and when I look at him and say "you need to understand expectations" or "she has no quality of life" he just refuses to understand what I'm saying. The second is this weird trait we have where if we get scammed, some people will defend the scammer. if you get bored read up on gregor macgregor and the mosquito coast, but basically he was charging people to join an expedition to settle this absolutely poo stretch of land in south america. all these people either died or had to be rescued, but when they returned to their home towns they refused to believe they'd been scammed, blamed other things, or even blamed themselves. This guy was CLEARLY a scam artist but they could not accept they, smart rational people etc had been scammed. This is some weird vestigial evolutionary trait that helped a group of monkeys work together to take the watering hole and no of course there's no modern day political equivalent why you imply such a thing. Panthers' fans were scammed with Bryce Young. Tepper (david or nicole im not sure which) were scammed with him. Obviously it's more complex than one scottish dude drunkenly walking into a bar in Buenos Aires but it's a similar setup. And yes the stakes are lower than moving to the other side of south america but a scam is a scam is a scam. It is very difficult for people to admit that they, ostensibly smart, rational, logical people would believe and buy in to something so obviously rotten so the blame has to go somewhere else. Every problem with Bryce has an cause external to him, and all problems will be solved by /random thing that has happened the specifics don't really matter. Currently it's a guy who no other team interviewed for the HC position. if you read this and your first instinct is that i'm attacking you, you need to take a deep breath and reevaluate some things. this is an opportunity for personal growth and you should take it. surely some people will counter with "well it's just football it's not that serious and why does it hurt to be excited for something?" This is what's called a "though terminating cliche" and is just a cutesy little phrase meant to stop the conversation and help the person using it avoid defending their terrible ideas. and to the person saying "lol wow you typed all this up u mad," <puts poo posting hat back> don't judge what i do by your own limitations. I'm much higher functioning than you and this was neither time or energy consuming for me. This is a casual thought. I am learning not to hold people to the same standards I hold myself, so I don't blame you for reacting defensively out of a sense of wonder and inferiority.
