Mike Garafolo: Panthers are in on DK Metcalf trade

Give them a top 10 pick for a WR who will be 28 by the end of the year and will be one of the highest paid at his position? That's how you remain firmly in the cellar as we have been....

Dropping from 8 to to 18 in the first and moving up from 57 to 50 is right around the value of a 2nd round pick.  

DK, even at 28 years old, is 100% worth that. Still get a top 20 player this year and lose zero picks.

This makes even more sense now that Seattle needs a QB. The Raiders will likely take a player we're coveting instead of Shedeur now. Moving back with Seattle for better draft capital and DK could be in play.

TBH, I would rather just get more top 90 picks from them for that swap.

We get far better than DK Metcf being added with competent drafting and more resources(I know, I know, we haven't seen any competent drafting in years).

I think that also depends on if Seattle opts to go free agency for a QB.

I will say, it would be a pretty strange move to deconstruct the offense like that in year two of a young HC.

We would have to give up too much in my opinion.  Even if he was only a free agent I'd think twice about the money it would take.

I’ll never understand the crowd that says “we would have to give up too much”

A 2nd rounder is too much?

We’ve spent 2nd rounders on TMJ, Mingo and a 1st rounder on XL trying to find a guy that’s like DK. Given this organizations inability to draft WR’s they need to trade for one

Just a fun fact:  Arguably, our WR corps last season was (ranked in order, imo):

Adam Thielen, Undrafted

Jalen Coker, Undrafted

Xavier Legette, First round pick (32)

David Moore, Seventh round pick

Well wouldn't the better idea be to just get better at drafting?

He won't be 28 until NEXT December!

    • Who believes after Rico went off that Dave will go back to Chuba, go very pass happy again, run Chuba 7 times, and give Rico 5 carries?   he has a weird obsession with wanting to pass it over and over with Bryce. 
    • I never once said I believed in Sam. Only that he’s proof that the Jets and Panthers are bad organizations. You spent all that time on me. I’m flattered. 
    • Story of the year. Get down massively to Arizona, look like your first NFL game to throwing for more than 300 yards and getting the team to within 40 yards of a come back win. Get down 17-0 to Miami, execute the offense to outscore the Dolphins 27-7 the rest of the way. Defeat the Falcons 30-0 throwing for like 150 yards. Personally, I think it would be great to have retained Darnold. Darnold in this scheme with Canales would instantly make this team a contender for the NFC South. However that didn't happen.  I don't know what you do because when they run game gets shut down, and it will get shut down, you have to depend on Bryce to play efficiently. On one third down ball to someone (I forget who), when he was rolling out and made that throw close to the sideline to convert, the TV people would talking about how special that was. What I saw was another receiver streaking all alone 45 yards downfield, with about 5 yards of separation. Even while rolling out, an average QB is able to deliver that ball, signed, and sealed for a touchdown. Bryce's lack of deep ball ability is the achilles heel to this offense and it's something that can't be fixed.  I would love to be able to draft Carson Beck. I think he took a lot of crap at UGA which now seems unwarranted. Looking at how inefficient their offense is now compared to how it was with Beck at QB, and now how he has gone into the system Cam Ward was in and outperformed him massively in just pure execution and efficiency, along with the physical traits, tells me he will be a Top 3 pick. We won't have a Top 3 pick though. So what do we do? I have no idea. Canales is too good of an offensive coach for us to get a Top 3 pick and Bryce is inconsistent enough to get us a Top 10 pick. So absent finding a guy like Nix with tons of experience and good enough measurables, which requires great evaluations, I just think we are stuck.
