We might trade to get in the 2nd

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 see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.  
    • Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.  
    • The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
