If we fuging trade up to get Carter, fire everyone and do it yesterday.

Yeah, I like him a lot but we have way too many needs to be sacrificing draft capital to move up. Big moves up should be limited to QBs or teams who think they're just a key piece or two away from being a legit contender.

I am not a fan personally. I think he is a very poor man's Brian Burns and that isn't worth the #8 pick.

I honestly don't see the Burns comp at all. I doubt there's any non-Panthers fans out there making that comp. Carter seems to have quite a bit more playing strength than Burns.

I would disagree. Carter is a substantially less effective pass rusher than Burns.

I'm not just talking about rushing the passer. I'd take a lesser pass rusher if he played the run better. Burns has always been a good pass rusher but he's also always been an absolute liability when the opposing offense runs right at him. He's a good pursuit tackler but he can't set an edge or get off a block to save his life. Pretty much all of his success comes from simply beating an OT around the edge with pure speed. There's no plan B.

Yes, and I mean that Carter is more effective in basically every single aspect of his game than Carter.

I am an outlier, I really, really, REALLY dislike Carter. I think he is a massive bust waiting to happen.

No we don't....

I said thugs...not murderers or intent to commit murders.

More importantly im talking about players that play with a mean enforcer streak on the field.

I'm to the point that it never really shocks me when a prospect busts but honestly I see Carter as a much more developed prospect than Burns was coming out which makes sense since Carter is being talked about as a potential top 5 pick and Burns was a mid-1st rounder.

See, I view it quite a bit differently. Carter is a far, far less developed prospect than Burns.

Burns was a one trick pony coming into the draft and he largely still is. That's not Carter at all. I mean, he was largely a stand up off the ball LB prior to this season.

That is sort of what I mean. He isn't even a real EDGE. He is a LB in ED clothing.

    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
    • Nah we just talking about giving a platform and normalizing predators (who both beat women) opinions and celebrating it if it fits your narrative.  If that's fun I'm fine being a miserable fug by not supporting P.O.S like that. N b4 you call me a libtard or some other dumb ish know I'm an Anarchist/Libertarian and believe both these dudes should get a complete ass whooping (at min) or something worse for what they have done to women in this world.
