I cannot recall such a shitty trade for a decent player that contributes

Basically Robby Anderson+ trade. Johnson is a better player but similar circumstances were incoming, IMO.

No real reason for us to fret about it. It was either this or keep him around to create more and more drama until he got released. That's not a better alternative.

Davante Adamas is a ALL PRO, likely future HOF and he got traded for a 3rd round pick. Johnson is not even top 15 WR in the league, temper your expectations. 

 

Wash got a 3rd for Jahan Dotson and he definitely not as good as Johnson.

A pick is a pick. This is the smart move.

He isn't an elite player, he went after multiple teams had filled their need and he wasn't happy to be here. 

There wasn't much to negotiate about. 

It’s a meaningless swap. The guy we’d get in the 6th is probably the same guy we’ll get late 5th.

Also, on a day when Kirk (possible alternative to Diontae) goes out for the year and Diggs is also out for the year, that’s all we could get? I didn’t even realize Baltimore was interested in another WR but I’m sure Houston is.

I get all of that but there is no way you can realistically convince me there wasnt a team out there that wouldnt even give a 6th for him?  Is he more of a malcontent then Adams?

Like I said, I don't think he was as valuable as people think. If he wasn't he wouldn't have been traded to us for a relatively low price.

He's a talented and high maintenance player that probably creates more BS than he solves in most cases.

    • This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.
    • Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
