Yeah, they are building another pile of trash on top of their previous piles of trash from Fat Fhule, Fitterer, etc.

All it took for me was Young. I don’t see that he has earned a future yet, and I thought these remaining games were his pass fail test.

If their minds are made up already, I am not sure I can find the will to remain interested. 

edit: no disrespect meant to the other players, in any way

I swear using any picks other than 6th or 7th, better not happen with this 2025 team.....

These mid-season trades have a fail rate of like 90%, its too much for a player to adapt. 

Only way it make sense is if it is a long term thing. maybe a player for player. 
I normally wouldn’t worry a team in our position renting in this situation but Tepper is in the mix.

The player needs to younger than 25 with some sort of multi-year contract length. I remember Rod Gardner trade and think how smart and how great of move that would result for the Panthers........I think he caught 3 balls and was a total non-factor....

Just given history, Im not giving any hope for gaining help via trade deadline......Im much more of fan that sells.....but we are talking the Panthers roster here....

If there is a GM dumb enough to take on Chuba's contract, I'd literally just give him away. 

But that would require someone stupider than Dan Morgan, and I don't think that concussion riddled GM exists. 

Chuba's contract is structured really well. Panthers could cut him after this season and only be on the hook for a small dead cap hit.

Add on to this with the details. If he's cut or traded in the off-season he has a dead cap hit of 4.5m. 

 

If he's traded right now, he would have a dead cap hit of 1.6m this year and 4.5m next year.

That’s when you get into essentially buying  a draft pick. They make the return worth the financial grief.

      Bust alert - Eight NFL players running out of time to prove themselves entering 2026 season

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      Bryce has improved each season, fwiw, statistically.  His slope is rising.  (Not to say I am high on him--I am not, but I have not given up on him--nor have I given up on XL, but damn he pisses me off)  CJ's slope is descending.   I was never a Penix fan.  Never, I say!

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      That is definitely the down side of all this--on paper, I would offer up a second rounder for him if he passed my interviews.  He has already gone through (seriously?) a treatment program for gambling addiction.  I just see him as a first round talent that we could get with a second rounder.  If I liked Bryce and felt good about paying him $50m per, I would not touch Sorsby.  If Bryce regresses or stays the same--he is going to expect to be paid.  Sorsby, in my view, has a better long-term future as an NFL QB.  He is big, mobile, has good arm strength, and makes wise decisions (on the field) with the football.  He is a great dual threat, RPO QB.   I think he is a perfect solution for the backup qb position and insurance for Bryce should he get injured or suck.  Pickett?  King?  yikes.

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      Hard to say--they are very unpredictable--this article came out last night---after our comments:  (ESPN)   How has the NFL approached NCAA players with gambling violations in the past? David Purdum, sports betting reporter: Quarterback Hunter Dekkers and wide receiver Kayshon Boutte were found to have committed gambling violations while playing college football, and both were allowed to pursue NFL careers. Dekkers was the projected starting quarterback at Iowa State but was ruled ineligible ahead of the 2023 season after an investigation found he had bet on at least one game involving the Cyclones (among other wagers that violated NCAA bylaws). The bet was just $15 on Iowa State to beat Oklahoma State in a 2021 game in which he did not play, but it led to the end of his Division I career. He played one season at Iowa Western Community College in 2024 before signing with the Saints as an undrafted free agent, and he spent last season on the practice squad. Boutte was arrested in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in January 2024 on charges of underage betting while at LSU. The arrest came roughly eight months after he had been drafted in Round 6 by the Patriots, and the charges were ultimately dropped. According to police, Boutte placed more than 8,900 wagers from April 2022 to May 2023, including betting on at least 17 college football games -- at least six of which involved LSU during that span. The NFL did not discipline Boutte.
