Lets say we trade with Cinci....

Lets play a hypothetical.

Lets say we trade with Cinci in exchange for Carson Palmer, their first, and their second. They in turn select Cam Newton first overall. Denver takes Dareus. Buffalo takes Peterson.

Who do you take? AJ Green?

Peterson would be there at 4. Buffalo takes Gabbert.

If not you take Fairley or Bowers. Do not take a WR with the #4 pick. There are too many lower draft picks and FA available and WR is not our biggest problem. We have a 2nd round WR (Amanti) from last years draft. The guy has to be used or we are simply idiots.

Lets play the probability. Palmer retires after the draft is over since cincy refuses to trade him. We get no decent Qb in free agency worth a crap and we passed on a QB in the draft.

We draft Peterson or Fairley at 1.

Welcome 4-12. Good enough that we don't pick up Luck next year. That goes to Cincy who sucked without Palmer and went 2-14.

We are set back for 3 or 4 years without a QB as Clausen flounders and Moore struggles as well.

    • So, objectively, you'd say from a holistic review of Rico's performance and the team overall there were at least a dozen players on the team that performed at least as well if not better in their roles?
    • I'm not a huge fan of BY, but he does have some clutchness developing
    • While you're correct, people are just sick of being told, "you don't understand this, you're dumb" despite what their eyes say. This applies to the Panthers and anything else in life. This board can be a miserable place, but this isn't the old days anymore because Social Media & Reddit have hijacked old-school forum users.  I have in the last year or so taken a massive step back from Social Media & Reddit. Deleted accounts on both, I only have X/Twitter now. But I was looking for an outlet for Panthers talk and I did not want to do that on X much at all. There are only two legitimate outlets for that I've found, here and SB Nation. SB Nation I used to partake in, but they absolutely bumble-f*cked the comments section, and I like the setup of the posts + comments, as opposed to article + comments. Also, as others have pointed out, being a Panthers fan has been a horrendous existence since Cam left. Just an awful crew of coaches, draft picks, trading away great players, etc. It's been miserable.  Ever since Tepper bought the team, I hoped that he commit to a full rebuild. He never did, he thought there were shortcuts and so did Rhule. This hamstrung us for years, and then he massively overstepped with the BY trade.  This ruined the team building, because there was no depth, and then it ruined nuanced BY discussions because of the insane haul we gave up. He will never live up to that, I think many people are finally wrapping their heads around that now which is good. The best thing for this board to get better is for the Panthers to win more, draft well, and to stay committed to crawling through this Andy Dufrense poop-pipe to escape the depths of NFL hell. It will be ugly and stink along the way, but you can see already this year if we commit to drafting then the team and the vibes can turn around quicker than you think.  I am extremely optimistic about the draft class this season, it's something to watch, talk about, and celebrate. It also gives Dan and I think by extension Dave Canales more of a leash, which I think we need to give them and grant them the time to turn this boat around.
