DE Josh Sweat Sweat, 27, is coming o an eight-sack season in his seventh year with the Eagles. Philadelphia has several notable players to re-sign (including All-Pro linebacker Zach Baun), and Sweat might hit the free-agent market solely due to a lack of cap resources. During his career, Sweat has produced 43 sacks, with the entirety being collected after his forgettable rookie campaign. Sweat was selected to the 2021 Pro Bowl and followed up that honor with an 11-sack season in 2022. The Panthers could use Sweat as a full-time starter opposite D.J. Wonnum and Jadeveon Clowney on the edge. The Chesapeake, Virginia, native grew up a big Clowney fan, and with his hometown not too far away, perhaps he’d be enticed to join a Panthers team that badly needs pass rusher help

DT Milton Williams The Panthers badly need help in their front seven, and Williams can play nearly every position in that grouping. Williams, a versatile interior pass rusher, has established himself as a key contributor for the top defense left in the playos. The 2021 third-round pick is used in a powerful rotation that also features Pro Bowl defensive tackle Jalen Carter and Charlotte native Jordan Davis.

I'd be interested in is Sweat and possibly Reid. 

But if this was the waiver wire I'm picking up Williams and Uche. 

Still amazes me that we were the worst team defensively + #1 on the waiver list with a below average roster and that only netted us some ST aces and a couple corners. Maybe I'm missing something.

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO.

      Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
