La Canfora says trade of Haynesworth is "very likely"

Hypothetically speaking, if we do get Haynesworth, who do you line up beside him?

Apparently I don't know anything and have poor predictive powers but honestly if we could get Haynesworth and Osi through some draft picks and trades, we go from having a very sorry line to one that is likely tops in the division. There is no way we do better through the draft and free agency and frankly both of them are cheaper than peppers was alone. If we can't sign our young core until after the season at least fill in the pieces and give Fox a chance to contend this year.

Going young shouldn't stop up from getting some playmakers while the rest mature and learn from the veterans. So we really want to be Tampa north for the next several years while we build a team.

Maybe, but the whole "it'd be different if I were coaching him" notion has burned many a team.

Again for what he would cost I would take his production as it is. He topped everyone one of our DTs and actually was more productive than Jenkins was most of his career. I just think he could help Haynesworth with consistency much like he did Peppers.

Possible, but I just don't see him as a possibility here. There's more than one area of their philosophy that he just doesn't fit.

Would that be the cheap part, the keep draft picks at all costs, or the build through the draft and ignore obvious upgrades and probowlers no matter how reasonable?

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By trucpfan · Posted

      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.

      Give Legette another season?

      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.
