If he were to be dealt what team would you all not oppose the most??

I would hate to see him leave more than Dockery but lets start being realistic, it could happen more than we believe.

New rumors regarding Panthers trading Steve Smith

Incarcerated Bob is an infamous NY area radio personality who seems to have his finger on the pulse for breaking NFL rumors. He's reliable enough in fact that today Adam Schefter of ESPN recommended people follow him on Twitter.

Well, today Bob has some interesting things to say about the Panthers possibly trading Steve Smith. I will list them here, but follow the link if you want to see his full stream.

"Carolina Panther WR Steve Smith has told the team he would not be opposed to being moved be4 Oct 19th trade deadline"

"Several teams would be interested in Smith if Panthers .1)Decide to give up on season 2)Get a 2nd rd pick + additional comp"

"Miami Dolphins / Redskins / Bears / Chiefs all would be in on trade talks but once again Panthers need to decide in a week"

Believe what you will... I'm not personally endorsing these rumors as true, all I'm saying is that the guy has accurately broken stories in the past and is well regarded in the NFL insider community.

UPDATE: I asked Darin Gantt if he had heard the above info and he replied "There is no Smitty trade rumor. Nothing to it"

I just dont see a team biting on an injured player by this Sunday.

It's not a major injury, he'd probably be full strength within a week or two. A team desperate enough still might bite.

That being said I doubt it get's done just because this is the Panthers FO we're talking about and they don't make these kind of moves.

I think he would be a good fit Chicago, New England, Washington, or Seattle.

I wouldn't be too pissed if we got good compensation. I would love to see him go somewhere and have a chance to win a ring. It doesn't appear likely that we will field a competitive enough team for the remainder of his career here in Carolina to do that.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
