Panthers possibly trading Thielen?

Totally different situations, those teams were ready to move on from those players and were shopping them.

We aren't looking to trade Thielen, the Vikings are in serious need for a WR who can play a meaningful role Week 1 and have a significant connection with Thielen of course.

Honestly, if the Vikings were to announce to the league that they are trading their 3rd rounder for the best WR offered to them, how many better players than Thielen would they get offered?  

It's not like teams are usually trying to trade away startable WRs at this time of the year.  We just happen to also be in a unique situation where yea, Thielen is our starting slot WR, but Renfrow might just be more effective this year anyways and the hope is that either of them are our 4th best WR this year as well.

Thielen is the leader of our very young WR room, I'm not trying to trade that away for a fair value trade, you need to make it worth it to us, and a 4th rounder next year really isn't a ton of value, it's hopefully a backup player in 26 who might be able to carve out a role in 27.

I'm not saying he's worth a 3rd, I'm just saying that unless it's that high, I don't see the value in trading him for a draft pick.  But a LB or DB that will play meaningful snaps this year is still my preference, if we're giving up a player who will play meaningful snaps for them on offense, give us one on defense for him.

I don't understand why everyone keeps saying renfrow might be our starting slot when I would be shocked if it isn't Coker...

Agreed though. I might consider a 4th, would love a 3rd, and would turn down anything worse than a 4th

Superstar receivers are only going for 3rds. I mean Pickens went for a 3rd, 5th and 6th. 

DK went for a 2nd, 6th and 7th. 

Adams was a third... Etc. 

 

Just cause Carolina fleeced Dallas and Baltimore for crappy WR doesn't mean AT is worth a 3rd all of a sudden. lol

I get your argument, but I think most of those higher level WRs either had a pretty big contract or wanted big bucks. Thielen isn't and you could easily get out of it unscathed if he did suck

If AT is gone, Coker will 100% be the guy that gets elevated.

I think there is a difference between lining up in the slot and being a slot WR.   Renfrow is a slot WR.   You can line up TMac, XL or Coker in the slot.
