Cooper Kupp available for trade

Yeah.  I think trading for him taking on about $9m in salary (guestimate) is a luxury for a contender looking for a #2 to compete.  We have Kupp in Thielen.  I am so worried that we overpay for a free agent WR playing in a good system (like we did the Eagles RB) and he underperforms here.

Smart worry. It's how bad teams stay bad. We'll see Morgan's mettle this year, it's when most GMs fug up.

This had me curious so I looked up tee higgins and adam theilens career stats.  Adam thielen average a higher yard per catch last year than tee did.  Tees injury history suprised me he has played in 70 of 90 nfl games.  Not sure him or Kup is worth a lot of money but would be worth seeing how they did here if they came are right price.  Thielens career stats are pretty impressive he has been putting up good sometimes great numbers for a long time.  He is definatly a bargain for the panthers

the more I think about higgins the less I think he will be very good on another team he has jamar chase taking most of the coverage from him, and he has only averaged 65.6 yards per game.  Kupp has averaged 74.8 yards per game or 8th out of current active nfl wrs 51.3 for adam thielen   I think Kupp if healthy is the better WR, I think higgins could be a great wr2, but do not believe either are worth salary demands.

Just my opinion but I'd rather sign a couple cheap alternatives like Slayton and mvs, draft a mid round guy and develop Coker, x and jt than make a big splash for kupp or higgins

I agree. Slayton and or Hollywood Brown are two names that come to mind. We need a speedster to stretch the defense

I think Kupp is on the backside. Unless this is a value deal(we would have to overpay in that value range, obviously) it doesn't make a ton of sense. 

Seems like he would be a lot more interested in going to a contender than a team that is very unlikely to see the playoffs in the remainder of his career.

    • 4610 total yards 27 total touchdowns 8 yards per attempt. Completion percentage was usual Cam ie mediocre or below at best at 57.7 and 86.2 passer rating. But the man scored points and moved the ball at will often. Compared to 2652 total yards 21 total touchdowns 6.3 yards per attempt completion % 60.9 82.2 passer rating. Let's just not do things like this. We can acknowledge Bryce improved (from realistically a bottom 5 QB) and hope he can work his way within the top 15 this season without dragging Cam Newton into it and unintentionally diminishing him. That's all I got to say. Carry on.
    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.
