According to Paolantonio, Rivera said the Panthers are calling around to gauge interest in possible trades. The coach said this year’s third-round pick could be part of the package, along with an early-round pick in 2012.

The Panthers have two third-round picks this year. The second one is the final pick of the third round and was a compensatory pick for the loss of Julius Peppers. The Panthers are not allowed to trade the compensatory pick.

Paolantonio said Rivera expressed the Panthers would target a defensive tackle or cornerback if they can get into the second round.

fug that noise.

If anything they should trade our 3rd rounder for a future 2nd round pick. I'm sick of going into every draft lacking high value picks. We aren't going to win the super bowl next year, there is no reason to get desperate and trade away our future.

exactly my thoughts

if a DT falls down to late 2nd that they are really interested in no doubt in my mind Hurney's going to pick up the phone and start making some calls

Phil Taylor or Stephen Paea might fall

uggg

Just stay put. I find it hard to believe Marty hasn't realized trading future first or second round picks for a worse pick in the present is not a good plan. Especially when all you preach is building through the draft.

    • I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.  
    • I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.
    • Freeling got some reps at RT when they gave Moton a rest day--I sorta hope Freeling gets brought along slowly as you describe.  It would be better for him for reasons you provide.  We have a really good problem.
