Panthers Plan to Contact Eagles

[NJPanthers12]

I was told today that the Panthers plan to ask the Eagles about Asante Samuel again. They are getting desperate at CB and will check in to see if they lowered their price. Munnerlyn might not even be the starter with the CBs we already have on the roster that is how underwhelming he has been.

If I am Carolina I would really think about giving up a 2nd for him, but would not touch my 1st round pick.

this will not end well for you.

I would do a 2nd in a heartbeat......heard they want 2 2s though

[The_Cannon]

Eh...if that is true I highly doubt the Eagles would give up Samuel for only a second. But they are kind of over flowing with CB

thats awesome news that they are looking into getting a well known proven CB, my only issue is that whole 2nd round pick thing. So next year we will have a 1,4,5,6,7. If he wont make or break our team this year, i say we pass. Id rather groom talent from the draft for a long term cure than patch up poo for the short term.

It was originally reported they want a 1 or 2 2's. I would not do that but I would trade a 2nd and a player. With Thomas Williams playing so well does that make Dan Connor expendable? The Eagles are weak at LB.

i hope we can pull it off without having done to us what the cards had done to them. of course samuel is a much better corner than kolb is a QB.

I feel that this year is going to be a big learning experience for Cam, I wouldn't get desperate giving away picks when we're likely going to struggle some on offense anyway. I don't know..

i'd be so f*cking pissed if we give up a 2nd and a player for samuel.

they are intentially weak at LB...not that they want to be weak...they just don't think it's a big deal because it's a passing league. the only thing they did is announce to the league, though, that they aren't going to put much effort into stopping the run because no one does it anymore. thats an invitation to get abused.

they'll find out soon enough.

that said, i don't want us to be trading away connor for a while. not until beason is healthy.

I call bs for the simple fact that they didn't go after a CB the entire FA period. Why give up a 2nd rounder now after all that talent was available to be bought?

I agree but all of our talent are 7th round draft picks or undrafted free agents.

Munnerlyn 7th round

McClain 7th Round

Stanford 7th Round

CJ Wilson 7th Round

Burney Undrafted

Eventually we need to get someone with talent. It is rare that undrafted free agents and 7th round picks turn into great talents, and we are banking on 5 of them to pan out.
