Listened to the interview, nothing remarkable - said all the things you'd expect him to say about liking Charlotte, the Panthers, etc...

Was somewhat difficult to understand him, but we don't need him for his public speaking ability.

He wants Panthers fans to follow him on twitter, he's going to start having lots of conversations about the Panthers, his twitter account is "nick_fairley251"

i love people who think trading down is just some magical lever they can pull to drenched in 2nd round picks like slime from you can't do that on television.

Right, in order to trade down you would have to find a team that has absolutely fallen in love with a particular prospect and I don't think there are any prospects in this draft that teams have fallen in love with to the point that they would spend the currency it took to move to # 1.

Who says I want a 2nd? Tell Buffalo at #3 we will switch with them plus their 3rd this year and 3rd next year.

Yeah, it's small compensation compared to other prior trades involving the #1 pick but it is the weakest draft since 2005 and with no CBA in place (yeah, I don't it will happen in the next 3 months) that pick just aint worth as much.

    • 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.  
    • 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.
