Ron Rivera: "Steve Smith part of the plan right now"

Yea it does, but we can still get a 3rd for him, and its not fair to him to ask him to wait after we gutted the rest of the team. He doesn't have mental issues like moss does so he does have some value.

Screw this "being fair to him" crap. I want what is best for the Panthers....not what is best for one of the players.

The only way the offense if going to be effective this year is if we land a veteran QB or if the guys we already have step it up. There is no Andrew Luck or Matt Ryan to be had. It's gonna be Moore or Clausen again. We just have to hope that the new system will make a big difference.

Or, accept the fact that this team just went 2-14 and we are now in a rebuilding phase and that there will be growing pains involved.

I think we are set up to have a quick rebuilding phase as compared to say the Lions and Raiders but still there will be growing pains.

I think the goal for the 2011 Panthers will be to get to 8-8 and playoffs in 2012 and Super Bowl contender by 2013. Will Smith be okay with that? I think like many fans he wants the team to make moves know that "on paper" makes the Panthers a Super Bowl contender now. And that's not going to happen.

I hate to say it, but Smith needs to go. You know he wants to be on a playoff bound team and as much as anybody wants it to happen, Carolina isn't going to be knocking on the playoffs door too soon. He deserves to be on a team that can give him a chance at a ring.

As far as his trade value goes, I think he his worth a 3rd round pick (heck, maybe a 2nd rounder from a team that really wants a proven WR).

Fans think players have more value than they actually do. No team is giving up a 2nd or 3rd for Smith.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
