Post Your Reaction if Hurney Screws Us.

So, it's becoming more and more obvious that our desired, number one goal is to trade down. However, it's also looking less and less likely that that will happen. So, I'm taking this particular thread and dedicating it completely to the idea of each poster posting his/her individual reaction if Hurney, in a fit of desperation, completely screws us by trading down-but getting next to nothing in return. For hypothetical's sake, let's say we swap 1st round picks with Washington, while they give us their 3rd.

You can post a picture, gif, or just random letters and words in all-caps. We've grown pretty used to stupid draft day moves here in Pantherland, so I figure we might as well prepare ourselves.

I'll start:

Just one more day, fellas..

I don't think it is our #1 goal. I think it is something we are willing to do but we are not going to just give it away. It will have to be a very good package in order for us to move down IMO.

There is a difference between wanting to trade down and being willing to trade down.

I think the opposite. I feel that drafting Cam Newton is in NO way "screwing us"... If we draft Cam, I think it's a sign from Hurney and Richardson that they are willing to take a chance to be great! This is a gamble, but it's one I really feel that we'll end up winning!

Now... we need to work on some sort of nickname for Cam...

I think he makes the pick. I will applaud if we trade down though and go cheap again. In the face of what happens at 6pm today Big Cat may make a statement that he is gonna go cheaper one way or another.

I would not be mad if we gave it away for next to nothing at all in light of the NFLPA antics.

    • Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at. 
    • Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often. 
    • With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
