Trade Johnson and this offense is unwatchable.

 

 

For goodness sakes sign the man already. His name is a hot name in trade rumors because he actually has talent. Keep him you morons!

If you cheap then enjoy Mingo being your #2 WR. Let's see how that works out.

 

 

Fools!

If they are gonna play Young may as well trade him. 

But otherwise it is exactly what to say if you want the best price.

Anyone on this team is on the trading block for the right price imo. The hard reality is that even with a good o-line, veteran QB, and decent weapons we're still the worst team in the NFL. That's when you know it's over for the next couple of seasons, so ANY advantageous trade should be taken imo. Now Morgan and Canales are fighting for their jobs, so they'll want to hang on to productive players and may pass on a sweet deal. Like Fitt passed on two first round picks for Burns because he had a win now gotta' save my job mentality. Drop a Steph Curry QB into place and we're winning. It was a fantasy. We need reality. I want a GM like Gettleman but with actual draft evaluation abilities.

I would be trying like hell to resign him right now, but I bet his camp is wanting him to hit the open market this offseason. If he isn't going to re-sign no matter what we offer then it makes sense to trade him but the compensation is going to be bad

You can’t resign him and you’re not playing for anything. Why keep him around? 

Because I think they hope to actually resign him and I think it kind of makes sense for him as well.  He wants to be the undisputed alpha in the receiver room, and here in carolina its pretty obvious we'll give him that reign, many other places, hes splitting the role with other alpha type personalities.  Unlike hubbard, he is playing a position that does get highly paid in the NFL, so IMO, we lock him up this offseason and chuba walks (or my preference is we trade him to dallas or another RB needy team).

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
