Panthers possibly trading Thielen?

I think it trends in the direction we are taking this roster. There is an obvious push for youth, and this make sense as far as preparing 2026, which is what it seems everyone has been talking about being our all in year.

It all comes down to if the staff is confident in Renfrow staying healthy.

Thielen and Renfrow will likely never be on the field together and they both can play a short yardage role out of the slot well.  

If we're confident in Renfrow's health, there is zero reason to not trade Thielen, get something for him while we can, whether it a pick next year or hopefully a LB or DB we can use this year.

That also allows us to keep Moore for special teams as well, which I think makes for a better roster.

I am gonna push back on this "loaded" notion. There are some potentially nice pieces here but I don't think "loaded" is a word many in the NFL would use about us. 

Could it be? Maybe.

That's where I'm at. Let's see what the lineup looks like on Sunday of Week 1.

I don’t think this has anything to do with Renfrow. The question is do you think XL or Coker can step up and be WR2. Renfrow and Horn are your slot guys. Maybe we keep Moore if ATis gone? That gives you some vets and Moore plays special teams right?

huh?

If Thielen stays here this year, I'd bet he takes less than 10% of his snaps lined up outside, and I'm being very generous with that 10%

T-Mac, XL, Coker, Renfrow, and Horn I think are all more likely to be lined up outside on any given play than Thielen would be at this point in his career.

This is all about Renfrow as he's the Thielen replacement if we trade him.  If we're not confident about Renfrow's health, this is a non starter for the team to even discuss.

    • I don't know; I think it's close for the first half and if it gets ugly it'll be in the second half.
    • The thing is, I feel like last Sunday validated what I have been saying about Bryce.  And this is why I'm somewhat optimistic. He isn't a good QB, let me make that clear before the brigade storms into this thread, but the biggest difference between Bryce before last week and Bryce in the second half of last season was his lack of confidence and willingness to make plays downfield.  Last week was the first time this season he's had that "F It" mentality, the same he had when he came back last year when he just looked and played care-free (in a good way; he had a positive energy).  We need him to keep that energy the rest of the season because if he does, we can win games. It ain't always about being good.  Hell Jameis Winston isn't good (better than Bryce, but still), but he plays with such a confidence that his teams always have a chance.   If Bryce is down to be as aggressive as he was last week, I think the opportunities will be there against a weak and injured 49ers defense.
    • I don't have a great feeling about this game, but after last night I have a real good feeling about our chances to win the division. I think we might actually have a fair amount of wiggle room if Baker is out for an extended period of time, especially if he misses one or both of the games against us. 9-8 could very well win the NFC South this year. Hell, depending on how long Mayfield is out I wouldn't be shocked to see 8-9 win it.
