I'd always look into it. If there's time on the clock and the phone is ringing there's no good reason not to have a conversation. Someone on the other end might be ready to do something stupid. Granted, historically that someone has been us but hey... LOL 

Morgan has done pretty well with trading down. I would be fine with it if the value isn’t there.

What are people’s thoughts on Texas Tech EDGE Howell? Would he be BPA at #19? He is smaller than I thought he was….

Honestly, I don't love taking another edge at 19. They usually take a couple years of development and we just took two in the second. I think we need some vet help in that unit while we keep developing those two.

I wouldn't be mad it... But I think we can find Edge help in free agency. The OT position is gonna be hard to find free agency this year, for that reason, I think we need to look at Proctor or maybe Lomu in the 1st. Now if we get lucky and Styles or even Lemon fall to us, I think we flip a coin and run to the podium!

The thing I like about Bain is that even if he doesn't work out as an edge rusher, he could easily put on 10-15 lbs and be an awesome 4-3 DT or 3-4 DE. I think he is just too good of a player to bust outright. He will be a contributor.

Like everybody else who watched the playoffs, I think Bain is a beast. He was just about unstoppable.

But I didn't watch Miami much throughout the season. Just going off of stats he was somewhat quiet, just two sacks in the first eight games. 

I'm sure he had an impact in other ways, but did he just turn it on in the big games late in the season?

Alot of talk about Jacob Rodriguez being linked to the Panthers. This guy wasn't on my radar, need to take a look at him

Best I know he's a ILB that's in the 2-3 range. Leader etc etc all the buzz words about ILB. I did see some early 1st talk, but that has cooled.

Other urgent needs aside, seeing Dan bear down on finding us LBs worthy of playing for the Panthers, guys that meet the high expectations he must have for that position on this team, I fuging love it. 
 

Edit: he doesn’t buy into the devaluation of that position that I have seen. He said, the other day, that is the guy the DBs are looking at in the huddle, the DL is looking at in the huddle, he  wants a leader there. 
He didn’t use the term QB of the defense, but I will. They have made such a difference to our defense over the years, we just need to find that guy that can be one of the league’s best.

    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
    • Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
