Anyone have a guess as to what we can get? I love having high quality back ups as much as anyone, but now that Anderson and TD have been locked up, and Beason likely to follow at some point, wouldn't it be prudent for the Panthers to capitalize on the good season he had last year playing in the middle. I don't see him having a higher value than now, and the only reason I could see keeping him is if Rivera plans to move us to a 3-4 in the future, or if they aren't really sold on the health of TD(but if they werent, why give him a 5 yr deal?). I dunno, just throwing it out there.

Played 7 games, had 47 tackles, over a whole season thats 107 sacks, and that is including a game where i think he missed a majority of time due to injury(only recorded one tackle). All the ones that would break 100 tackles in a year have already been pretty much picked up(and tbh i think he could be a guy in the right scheme that records 120-130 tackles).

He might have to get a little better in pass coverage but I don't see a real reason he couldn't play 3-4. I think he played 4-3 at penn state, but I don't think the assignments are too radically different for ILB's in a 3-4 or the MLB in a 4-3.

Um, at 6'2 I don't think he's the 3-4 type of guy. He's a solid 4-3 guy.

I'd prefer player for player straight up. But if he generates a 4th round or 3rd round pick, I'd say that would be Ideal. Would it be something teams would give up for him? I doubt it.

Dan Connor and a 4th for Darnell Dockett(30 y/o)?

Or

Dan Connor for Adrian Wilson(31 y/o)

I could see that getting done, Gerald Hayes is listed as their starting MLB, 30 years old and not really a standout player.

I guess it's possible that he could be traded, since I doubt that he is happy to be relegated back to the bench. . .so in terms of trade value, I would probably say a 3rd-4th. The fact that he is young would probably be worth something.

I could see that getting done, Dockett is 30 now.

Uh, I don't think so. Especially since Dockett is like what? 30? I say Dan Connor for Dockett straight up. They get a young LB, we get a DT that probably has 2-3 years left of football. Which we would plug in right away.

One thing I don't want the Panthers to do ever again, Unless the trade is that good. Is to give away Draft picks. Connor himself is worth Dockett and probably a pick from the Cards. If both teams have needs in each position, then straight up would be the way to go.

Yea guys lets just get rid of a quality back up. that's smart.

His deal is up next off-season. Dude is gonna sign with someone who wants to give him starter money. Don't see why we wouldn't at least shop him around a bit.

This is just as practical as trading J. Stew

Keep him here, he is solid, and perhaps Rivera changes our defense to 3-4 next offseason, assuming he wants to bring the SD defense scheme in full effect over here. Anderson, Beason, Conner, and Davis on the field at the same time would be official.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It can happen but it’s nothing like the NBA. One player doesn’t make the difference in the NFL that one player can in the NBA. Also, there are just not the same amount of trades and even opportunities. Because the NFL isn’t just one stud away, you don’t get a lot of opportunities like Miami did with Tua or the Jets did with Zach Wilson. Both teams got multiple 1sts for players they traded (Jets had 5 1sts in 2021-2022 and Miami had 5 1sts in 2020-2021) and both got top 5 picks to select a QB. They both made some good and bad picks but Miami turned Tua into multiple playoff appearances even though Tua isn’t elite. Wilson was just so bad that the Jets still sucked. We had our opportunity in 2022 where we would have had 6 1sts and 4 2nds in 2023-2025 and probably had a top 5 pick in 2023 or 2024 for a QB without trading up. Unfortunately, Fitterer didn’t have the foresight to realize a full rebuild was necessary and when a team offers you 2 1sts and a 2nd for a non-QB like Tunsil and Burns, you take it. One thing I wish trades had in the NFL that they have in the NBA is protected picks. A moron like Fitterer could have a top 5 protected pick so his terrible GMing doesn’t accidentally give the Bears the #1 overall pick because the moron Fitterer incorrectly thought we were 1 player away from the playoffs.

      Anyone that believes getting a couple late season wins to end the season at 4-13 while picking 9th in each round, other than 2-15 with the 1st pick in each round is not being realistic.  It happens nearly every other year, Jags gave the browns a insane package to move from 2nd to 5th. If not for late season pointless/everyone forgets late season wins the Panthers would have gotten that franchise changing package. Not to mention Panthers would have had Herbo and Sewell in other years, but nope. Do I need to bring up da bears??? The goal is long term winning in order to make the playoffs, one season to tank could spark it with a Burrow that's gets sacked 60 times on the way to a SB.  I want to win as bad as anyone, but the second the Panthers are eliminated from playoff contention, the ONLY solution is to lose the remaining games to gain a better chance to never do that again. No other answer.
