Josh Norris: Panthers-Garrett Wilson trade options

Coker is our best WR prospect, but we're talking about a #1 receiver that defenses plan around.  Coker might develop into that, but he might be a WR2-3 his entire career.

I don't understand turning our noses up at elite players because we have rose tinted glasses about our own guys.

3 seasons, 3 straight 1000+ seasons. You might not get a top 10 for him but he is easily worth a first round pick. 

He's on the last year of his deal. Same reason we got jack poo for burns,  he's about to get PAID.

There is usually more money in free agency and every agent knows this. It's how we got those 2 OGs last year.

Right but he's not a UFA until 2027 since this is the last year of his deal, and then in 2026 they have the 5th year option.  He may not want to be stuck on the Jets for 2 more years.  Plus a lot can happen in 2 years.  Look at what Diontae Johnson did in less than 1.  A trade and extension agreement fixes both of those problems.

Why are we so pressed to get weapons when we can't get the ball to them? We need O-line to protect the QB before any "weapon". Our first pick needs to be something boring/foundational O-line or D-line. We went to the Super Bowl with Jerricho Cotchery, Ted Ginn and Devin Funchess. I say that to say that we don't need the weapons at this point.

Burns was also coming off a season where the passing rushing specialist who sucked vs the run was tied for 37th in sacks.

Johnson was a known character issue, people here willingly avoided it except for a few. Injury seems like a much bigger issue IMO, the NFL is brutal even if he is only 24.

An extension only works if he agrees or it's just an expensive 2 year rental. Maybe he wants out of the Jets so bad he doesn't care about winning or getting his biggest possible payday. Once his 5th option is picked up it's as guaranteed as his pay next year so he doesn't have to sign anything if he doesn't want to do so and still hit free agency in 2 years if the team trading for him doesn't have those negotiations locked up before the trade is finalized. Franchise tags being much diminished as they are and all.

On the flip side he is a proven #1 WR with 1 year left on rookie deal and a 5th year option.  He is only 24 and if you are going to spend the money why not on a young guy who can give 6-8 years

Most people would use a top 10 pick on a receiver with those numbers and have no problem paying them.  But giving a pick to another team to get that player?  Unreasonable.

Our OL was one of the better overall lines in football last year ... We do need depth, and our DL is legit garbage but the OL was the best unit in the team by far.  Ultimately we still need weapons, tho I'm not big on giving up #8 to get someone that's likely only here for a year or two.

    • They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.   
    • There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?
    • I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
