Trade Sutton? Panthers say no.

(By Darin Gannt, [email protected]) The Carolina Panthers take pride in having one of the deepest running back groups in the league, and had no intentions to break it up.p/A league source said that one NFC team called recently inquiring about the availability of running back Tyrell Sutton, but were promptly dismissed by the Panthers, who had no interest in trading him. Panthers officials wouldn't comment, saying they don't discuss conversations with other teams.

It was for Vincent Jackson, right? :)

Actually, I wouldn't be surprised to find that the team was Baltimore and the player was Mark Clayton. He went to the Rams for a late pick, the Panthers have a need for a WR, and Baltimore would love another good running back.

Don't negotiate much do you?

Every player on the team is available for trade... for the right player(s).

Well, you suggested that they were going to trade for a WR. Not a hint in anything says that was the case.

What's come out is that another team contacted them about getting a FB, and they turned it down. Frankly, I would be surprised if the Front Office didn't field at least one trade feeler a day during this time of year.

I think the call may have been about a WR who was recently moved, but that's just as speculative as the post you linked to. Really, no one has any idea what it's about. And it didn't come from the Panthers. So I'm not sure where this negotiation is, honestly. Not that Hurney does a lot of negotiation through the media anyway...

    • As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.
    • He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.
    • Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
