chances panthers trade into 1st

we will trade a 2011 2nd and 4th (and maybe another) for a 2010 2nd.

most likely, and I wouldn't have a problem with that, next year is going to be weak, and there is plenty of first round talent around in the second this year, which is why i doubt they will trade into the 1st this year.

The talent pool has little dropoff from the late 1st through the early 3rd so why give up so much to move into the 1st?

This. Or why trade next years picks to move up in the 2nd this year. And how does anybody know that next years draft is going to be weak? Crystal balls?

i would really like to see us trade next year's first for a 2nd and a 3rd. i'd take a 2nd and an early fourth, though.

if this year is really deep with a lot of first round talent dropping into later rounds why not get as many as we can get? especially if next years talent pool is going to be pretty poor comparatively?

get as many picks as we can get this year.

Next year's class is projected to be weak because a ton of underclassmen came out this year becuase of the impending lockout and rookie pay scale.

This year's draft is being projected as the deepest in nearly 20 years.

first, one of the reasons that this class is so good is that players that would have come out last year jumped the gun at their agents suggestion out of fear that there will be a lockout next year.

if there is a lockout next year (pretty likely at this point) there could be a lot of players deciding to stay for another year or put off entering the draft until the following year. why try to get drafted if you aren't going to get paid?

    • Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
    • Crosby will garner a haul in a trade. I would be reluctant to make that trade because of the following: 1. Our overall roster is awful. We cannot afford to be trading away valuable draft capital. 2. He isn't the best fit(IMO) for the scheme that Evero runs.  I love the player but it would really need to be at a reasonable deal and I think he is likely to garner an unreasonable price if he gets traded.
    • In terms of need, EDGE is currently #1. Our pass rush is near league worst levels. However, I don't subscribe to "need" based drafting. BPA all day.  We do need to dramatically upgrade over Scourton, Jones, Wonnum and Umanmielen. That is likely in the running for the NFL's worst two deep. Not saying all those players are bad, but I am saying 100% of those players are 2nd or 3rd stringers.
