Regardless of how either team ends the season, it won't be a one pick trade up due to comp picks.

We really had no leverage in this and it sucks.

  • He isn't under contract next season
  • We weren't going to extend him
  • He was in a position to demand more money than he's worth due to our poor overall roster structure
  • He wasn't exactly lighting the world on fire aside from the Oakland game
  • He's on tape giving up on numerous routes and refusing to block
  • Letting him walk in FA would NOT have resulted in a comp pick due to us needing to fill out the roster by signing a FA in the offseason. It would offset the comp pick formula.
  • Team is overall dogshit so there was no point in keeping him when we have young guys on the roster to try to develop in Legette and Coker.

I wanted more like everyone else but I get why that's the best offer we got.

Hard to believe the best offer we could get was a 5th rounder for a 6th rounder and Johnson... At that point, might as well just release him and let him go to whatever team he wants because we literally gained zero value from this trade.

And it's trades like this that make it easy to understand why we are and have been the worst team in the NFL for several years

There is no way you could ever convince me this was the best option.  Especially considering kirk and diggs just went down

People getting upset about this trade expected wayyyy too much. We had no leverage. What did yall expect?

honestly this should have been expected. 

I don't know... A trade that resulted in us getting more than 1 pick that is six spots better than what our 6th rounder would have been...

We honestly just need to nuke this entire franchise. Cut all the players, fire all the staff (from coach to coordinators to position coaches to medical staff to anyone else), and just completely start anew. We need to get the shitstains that are our players and coaches off this team.

Unfortunately our cuck owner can't fire himself, but the next best thing is just getting rid of literally everyone else, forfeit every game the next few years, and see if we can draft some winners with someone that hasn't been a part of this dumpster fire the past half decade

    • Fowler: Bucs 23, Panthers 16. Baker Mayfield only won a single game when he was an unimpressive Carolina starter, but somehow he’s 5-0 when playing AGAINST the Panthers. For the Panthers to pull off this upset, they’ll need to score at least in the mid-20s. With Tampa Bay relatively healthy following a mini-bye (and Mike Evans’ return is huge), it feels like this will be too tough a task. Kaye: Bucs 24, Panthers 20. The win-loss-win-loss streak comes to an end. It’s hard to trust the play-calling following the loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Panthers know what’s on the line, but they also knew last week, too. It’ll be close; I just have trouble trusting a positive outcome after a defeating one on the road. Zietlow: Panthers 38, Bucs 35. This prediction goes against conventional wisdom, but then again, conventional wisdom doesn’t seem to apply to these Panthers. This group, after all, has yet to lose back-to-back contests since Weeks 1 and 2. I think they win this one to make Week 18 interesting — and yes, that’s even with motivated Baker Mayfield and future Hall of Famer Mike Evans in good form. Why not?
    • Sam developed into a different player after he mostly sat for a year and learned a ton by being in that QB room under Shannahan in San Francisco.  Then he went to the Vikings who have a poo load of talent and another genius level offensive mind at HC in Kevin O Connel. I think they genuinely built up his confidence in a way he never did in New York or Charlotte.  He would not have been the same player if he stayed here IMO. Especially if he had been involved in that disaster season with Frank Reich in 2023, that might have cooked his confidence for good.  I guess you could argue we wouldn't have been that bad if we also kept cmc and dj i guess. 
    • Willis was impressive last night given the circumstances. GB and SF seem to just have it figured out as far as QB goes.   It's frustrating, but I enjoy seeing our old players find success elsewhere.
